Yup. Even no talent blog hacks, like moi, request a brief respite during these lazy days of summer when golf, bike riding, & travel uh, matters of great importance weigh heavily upon my fevered brow.
Posting will resume shortly.
In the meantime, might I recommend the finest in midwest talk radio? 710 KCMO, which features one of the best morning shows on this rock, the KCMO Morning Show With Chris Stigall & the lovely Paige Powers.
Weekdays 5:00am - 9:00am
As an added bonus, this station does not feature a hate speech platform for la racist, bigot bloggers! So tune in.

Update: An "A-Lube" PSA
Adam Smith Would Be Proud.
Updated update: What have you done for me lately?
La Shawn Barber has an excellent article, entitled "Why Black People Don’t Care that GOP Is Civil Rights Party", which partially answers my long standing question of "Why do Black people vote for democrats?"
Updated, updated update: Hey. He's just an evil oil chimp. Why listen to him?
June, 2001: Bush warns of impending energy crunch.
Gas tax hike?? Can the congress critters be this stupid?
===>Updated, updated, update with an update: My fellow Americans, we should all take time to thank our democratic socialist congress comrades for their support of Joint Resolution 114 - the Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002. They include (but are not limited to):
Harry Reid of Nevada, Democrat
Joe Biden of Delaware, Democrat
Max Cleland of Georgia, Democrat
John Edwards of North Carolina, Democrat
John Kerry of Massachusetts, Democrat
Chuck Schumer of New York, Democrat
Hillary Clinton of New York, Democrat
Without their support to initiate boooshitler/deathstarcheney's illegal war, the obamanator would not be able to make his annoited pilgrimage, in relative safety, to The Land of Two Rivers: Iraq.
Be sure and look General Petraeus in the eye, shake his hand, and say "thank you", barry.
PS: The obamanator was not able to vote for or against this support because, in 2002, he wasn't even elected to the U.S. Senate. But he was in the Ilinois state house. And, now, he wants to be your POTUS.

Attention democratic socialists! These are market.forces.at.work.
But these congress critters would rather rotate on their thumb, and demonize Wall Street for doing what Wall Street is supposed to do: MAKE MONEY.
Get a clue, guys. Speculators swarm to speculate because an artificially tight (read: gub'mint encumbered) market makes for easy money over a long haul on a high demand, world wide commodity (oil). Reduce the demand or increase the supply, and guess what? The specualators stop swarming because the easy bucks aren't there anymore!!
Attention democratic socialists! These are market.forces.at.work. Idjits.
