    the FILM lounge

    Wall-E IMHO is boring. My 8 yr old grandson left the room after about 20 minutes of the endless whistling and gear noises. Step Brothers is pretty good, Dark Knight way Good. Watched Mummy, Tomb of Dragon Emperor last night, it was 4 on scale of 1-10. :cool:

    Time to get Long Oil

    Or, a huge new supply magically appears. That's why we aren't building new refineries, 'cause there's not much new to refine. How do you think China is going to feel about us blockading Iran. Russia is already pretty pissed. This whole deal is starting to make me nervous. Jodi

    Oil: so much that they're turning it away?

    Link to the updates below. For some reason I can't copy the tables, as of 1/27/06 there are still half million bpd shut down. "Refineries Still Affected by Hurricanes 1,047,200 Shut down – 557,000. " I don't think "reduced runs" are included so actual refining loss is probably larger...
