Kinda like the "it's all about the WMDs and freeing the Iraqi people"
mantra the liars in D.C. keep spewing.

Why don't they just tell the truth? It's all about, "He tried to kill

Yes - and it also colors them each with a different color to indicate the

I don't know about all that. I'm just wondering why the gas prices at
the pump have slid back up about $0.15/gallon in the last week and we
haven't heard a peep about it.

I guess the media won't do a story about gas prices until Brittney has
to fill up. And who gives a shit about where Anna Nicole is buried,

I've heard a major refinery is down and OPEC cut production. They also said

It's not about where to buy from. It's a long term view about a
dwindling resource that is vital to western economy. Without oil, that
economy will suffer hugely.
As oil stocks runs out, whoever controls what little is left becomes
the world's major superpower by default.

At this time, oil is vital to all economies, East and West. However,
if forced to, the world could live without oil. Cars can run on
ethanol and batteries. Brazil has the most advanced ethanol industry.
Soon they will be using virtually no oil to power their car and at the
same time infusing billions into their sugar cane industry. Likewise,
homes can be heated using electric or ethanol. You do not need oil to
make electricity, France uses no oil to make electric power and they
sell a lot of it to other countries. Petrochemical products like
plastics and lubricants can also be produced from coal. The
alternative energy sources already exist, it's just a matter of when
they become competitive. And they will become competitive long before
the oil runs out, which wont be anytime soon.

One of the good things to come out of the rise in energy prices is that
clean coal methods are now competitively priced. The technology has
been there for quite some time, just was too expensive. This should
open up some idle coal mines in the midwest, if we just decide to start
using it properly.

Bio diesel will probably become the first successful alternative fuel
source in the US. It has the advantage of working in virtually all
the diesel engines on the road today and it also works in most home
heating units currently using oil.

The big agricultural companies, like ADM, are ready to make the
investment to create the infrastructure to deliver the product. Once
that is in place, the addition of ethanol for flex cars will be easy.

Controlling Iraq won't control "what little is left". And certainly
this war won't effect this long term goal.

And soooo right. That is one war we don't need. The Chinese almost

If a modern China decides to become aggressive, then the whole planet

Don't be a cynic. If that was true then western leaders would all
turn a blind eye to the idea of, say, freeing a people suffering under
a tyrannical, murderous leader if they had no resources to punder.

Oil's fungible. If Iraq sells oil to China, then we buy more oil
from Venezuela, or if it sells less to China, China buys more from
Russia.

that is the dumbest rek i've heard in a long time. If you can't
think of any reason, then you can't have thought about it at all. Do
you think the military resources of the United States are unlimited?
You want to be at war in 4 countries at the same time (Afghanistan,
Iraq, Iran and NK)? If we were to invode N. Korea, they would nuke
Seoul and Tokyo.We would be bogged down there for years. US casualties
would be in the tens of thousands. Unlike Iraq, N. Korea would fight
back if invaded. It would be an absolute nighte. But what do you
care? You talk about invading foreign countries as through it were
like a walk in the park.

Um, no they wouldn't. They don't have a working device yet.

North Korea would fold like a cheap suit. The only worry would be 800,000
screaming chinese coming across the border like they did in the last
Korean war.

It would be an absolute nighte. But what do you

The real reason we're not invading NK (besides the 8000,000 screamin
chinese) is they are disentegrating on their own. I give them 2 to 3
years tops before they fall like eastern europe did.
The real trick is in how we pick up the pieces...

Let them resort to cannibalism and eat each other for all I care. Who cares
if that shithole falls into the medieval dark ages? I wouldn't even invade.
Just neutron bomb them into oblivion and keep all of their toys.

I don't believe it - if we wanted cheap oil, all we needed to do was
to make it easier for Sadaam to export it (anywhere).

Certainly it was easy to believe in the cause when your friends
(Halliburton) are happy - but the president lied us into Iraq because
he believed it was the right thing to do.

Just as bin Laden attacked us because he believed it was the right
thing to do.

The first thing we're gonna do when we take over your crappy country
is to ban hockey.
Next, anyone with 'eux' in their names will be forcefully relocated to
New Orleans.
Cajun Canucks, we'll call them.
Third, there will be a 5th Major played at Banff Springs.

The other day I saw a quick film clip on some news channel about a female

We have a track in the Canadian suburb of Michigan. That is one of the
most boring races in NASCAR (next to Las Vegas). They should cancel that
and bring back North Wilkesboro.

Cajun is derived from Acadian. That's an area in Nova Scotia. Canada.

While the Banff Springs course layout is a Stanley Thompson gem, it's
not my favourite mountain layout. Jasper Park is quite a bit more
interesting, with a lot more variation in terrain, and a much more
captivating setting. However Jasper is pretty tiny, without much else
going on whereas Banff is like a big city.

Short and sweet is that they were deported during the French and
Indian war in the mid 1700's. Some relocated to Louisiana and Acadians
became Cajuns. I'd have to actually look up much more info than that.

Banff and Jasper are quite spectacular. Never played the courses but

Icefields Parkway is an amazing drive.

About 1/2 way along there's a turnoff on the east-west highway (#11) to
Rocky Mountain House. Another mountain gem of a course there.

Yeah know it well. The wife's family is in Rocky. Well actually around
15 to 20 minutes south west on a nice spread at the end of
civilization.

Played the course there 2 and a half times.The half was when I talked
a buddy and his wife into joining us one summer out at the ranch (had
the place to ourselves). Well it was drought conditions, no rain for a
couple of months, and the day before they left to start the trek back
to the coast we went to Pine Hills.

My buddy Keith started out with an eagle putt on the first and a
birdie putt on the second, third and fourth, and after the fourth was
2 under. On the fifth the clouds rolled in and he missed his bird. On
the sixth we felt a couple of drops and he saved par. Seventh and
number eight were routine pars for him and it was definitely raining.
On nine we hit our drives and had a hard time following the ball in
rain. We decided after 9 to sit in the clubhouse wait it out. It just
kept raining, harder and harder. Keith was determined to wait it out
as he had shot his best nine ever. Now we are from the island and use
to rain and will play in some pretty severe conditions, but this was
quite possibly the hardest rain I've seen. It kept raining for 24
hours, the creek at the ranch went up a foot, the fire ban was lifted
and we didn't finish the round.

That was 5 years ago, haven't been back in the summer since but one of
these years we'll venture back in the warm season and try and finish
the round.

In 1713, France abandoned Nova Scotia to the British. The Acadians were
loyal to France and were mistreated by the Redcoats. Some time later,
they left, seeking refuge in Louisiana (named for King Louis of France.)

It appears that everyone gets mistreated by the Redcoats. I dread the

I was up in Montreal for 4 days a few years ago, NE North American
family driving vacation. It was interesting when we went Parc
Jean-Drapeau. There is a fort there I can't remember the name but it was
very interesting watching the "re-enactment"/demonstration. The French
troops were the featured part with the British playing second fiddle and
the Scottish who mustered out and made Montreal and the province their
home were held in high esteem. A special point made was that the
Scottish ried local French girls and even learned the French language.

About a week later we were in Boston and the view of British, Scottish
and French was quite a bit different.

What really amazed me was the men in Montreal wearing Capri pants. My
daughters thought the men wearing them looked funny.

Wrong. Golf is a sport. Hockey is a fight among toothless idiots over a
roll of black electrical tape.

I don't think that there are many people who doubt that Ice Hockey is
a sport. However, there are lots of people who feel that golf isn't a
sport.

If by "people" you mean drunken, toothless Inuits wearing snowshoes; then
I agree. :-)

Are you suggesting that a person has to take a bullet to the head in order
to enjoy watching toothless tundra monkeys chase a roll of electrical tape
around using some little wooden sticks? You are probably right.

Well since I'm not an American I didn't think automatically about a
head shot having to do with guns.
Great insults by the way. Hope your boys enjoy Iraq.

Thanks.

I'm none too thrilled that Blowhound Bushtard (our laughable excuse for a
CinC) has put our finest over there. I prefer to let them kill each other
in a civil war.

Well us tundra monkeys have been discussing what seems to be a lot of
hits to the head while chasing the ball o'tape around. Whether that
would be with the shoulder (legal) or elbow (not kosher) and these
hits well have the common monikers of well... head shots.

Actually regretted that statement the second I hit send. The boys and
girls who fight the wars are just doing what their political masters
want. I don't wish harm to anyone.

Though I admittedly do not follow hockey; I never heard of that expression.
Since only about 27 people show up to Thrashers games; I might take a look
someday.

At least you don't have Bushtard running Canada. We could send him up to
you though, if you want him. The only thing - it's kind of a matched set
deal. HalliCheney keeps his hand up Blowhound Bushtard's ass - that's how
you get Blowhound's lips to move.

Yet another Canadian "sport". Here in America we prefer golf, NASCAR,
and guns. Insert your idiotic "redneck" jokes now; oh predictable tundra
monkey.

That reminds me of his non-cut streak, which included him not
surviving match play, not making both cuts in The International, and
not finishing a delayed completion at Pebble Beach.

Have you played the course? I stayed at the hotel last summer - sadly, for
just one night. I was able to see part of the course from the hotel, but
that was it.

That course and the one in Jasper had two of the most magnificent settings
for golf I can imagine. (Well, I suppose Pebble Beach is right up there too,
in a different way.)

Which theory? The one that says the rising gas prices are due to
Iraq, Iran, or some world shortage because China and India just
started driving cars this year?

Partially correct. There was also a major refinery that blew up.

So you are kinda disproving the oil theory.
