I just heard that Survivor is down to it's last 3 episodes. Is that true? Survivor is still on the air?
Haven't watched a full episode in over a year. Strange, I used to love it, now I don't care.
Speaking of strange. Today is the 40 year anniversary of the Leafs last Stanly Cup win. Wow. That is just all manner of funny. 40 freaking winless years and I'll bet the club is about to announce another ticket price increase.
To celebrate the 40th anniversary they should lower next years prices by 40%. Yeah that'll happen when the day the Oil companies stop hosing us.
Speaking of Oil companies.(Are you sensing a theme today? I am.)
I love this excuse for raising prices. "........Rising costs due to lower inventories..blah blah lie blah bull-sh*t blah...."
Why do the costs go up when the supplies are down yet when the supplies are up the costs never go down at the same rate.
I know the pump price is down 4 cents today but stand by for a major hosing come the May 24 long weekend.
Finally I don't know what's wrong with the universe these days. The sun is shining, my mood is good, I'm sleeping okay and Paula actually made some sense last night on American Idol.
Am I being punkd?

I'm with you we are being definitely being hosed big-time by the oil companies. You know how we can know that is true ~ when you go to your local place of choice to get can of 10w30 (or whatever you use/need) the price is always the same. Wouldn’t it stand to reason if they were not lying to us the price of that little can would climb and drop also, but it just doesn’t

Let's not forget, Canada exports more oil than we import. Why then is the price of gasoline at the pumps dictated by OPEC and influenced by problems with US supply or Venezuelan politics?
Same thing goes for Insurance, it's all a scam. My business insurance went from $850/year to $10250.00/year post 911. My business is in Toronto, my insurance company is (was) Canadian. Explain that. And I already heard the BS about investments in US properties, blah, blah, blah... 12X increase, yeah, like I was their only client and I had to pay to fix the Pentagon? Whatever.
