I'm sorry, i hate to be that guy but i'm noticing a disturbing lack of leading zeros when representing cents using a dollar sign. It's $0.60 for crying out loud! What would our forefathers think! I'll tell ya what they'd think; "aye! I cannot make "cents" of what this fellow is trying to say with his improper notation" you should all be ashamed of yourselves!

But if you write 60¢ you don't need leading zeros.

Yes my friend you are correct. I'm referring to the hoodlums using a "dolla sign". Btw fella, i know you're just using the ascii code to create your cent sign. You can't fool me mister!

Vote for the candidate you think will loose. That way, you have the right to bitch about the state of the country, since you voted for the "other guy".

I'd vote for Cookie Monster, but since he flip-flopped on his core issue (cookies), I've lost all faith in him. Cookies ARE delicious, dammit.

Good explanation of why prices fell.

In a nutshell Economies are weak prices are high so demand tumbled.

the price of oil dropping probably has more to do with the strengthening dollar than all the other factors. most of the drilling and production platforms in the gulf still haven't come back on line since gustav, and won't until after Ike is gone. they still might not even then since josephine could still head this way.
