It’s one of those, “you’re kidding?” moments. You just sit there in disbelief it’s happening or even being talked about.

Cell phones are unsafe, obnoxious, and should be banned on flights? Well then, I took the liberty of making a list of things that are unsafe and obnoxious and therefore should be banned:
1. Door-to-door salepeople: You just don’t know if they’re a murderer!
2. Congress: Yeah, I think I’d get support for this one. You can’t get anything progressive done! >_<
3. People who cut in line: It can easily ’cause fights for those on short fuses! And it’s annoying!
4. Kids who scream and whine at the store: They’re a danger to people, they could hit others! And frankly I don’t want to hear them all the way across the store. So note to parents: Lay down the rules.
Let’s have the government step more into our lives! Hm…..I don’t like the word “blog” so maybe I’ll lobby Congress to have that word banned! Haha! **Makes some phone calls**
Really though, don’t you have better things to do, like I don’t know: Pass a Spending Bill?!?!? Or maybe go to work 40 hours/week!!!???
Thank the Lord above these people are leaving for a months vacation soon. (Also known as August Recess)
Alive! 28 and 29~

Dangerous bubbles galore! Yura is fighting Nami while Kanon trys to escape! The reporters are on the trail, and seeing how they see their car is destroyed they recuirt the little girl to take them to the lake. Where are the ethics for those two?
Megu is still stuck to Taisuke, and they’re being chased Morio, who’s just a wee bit upset that Taisuke burned his face beyond healing. It looks like the end for the two until Asou interupts the fight, but he lost his glasses! XD Yuta’s isolated Megu so now Taisuke’s free to fight! And right before he can deliver a final blow, Asou begins to attack Taisuke! (Katsumata’s doing.)
Ron and Yuta are talking about Katsumata’s doing, and Yuta tells him to go stop the fights before everyone dies. Then that nasty looking fat person shows up, looking for Megu. Ron enguls him and he goes running away~ Yuta is acting strange though.
Yura’s quite nimble no? Dodging Nami’s attacks left and right! The strange behavoir is beginning to affect Yura as well. Maybe not so much Kanon, she’s horrible as it is. =P
Great, it likes Taisuke’s been pocessed by his inner demons! He knocks out Morio and is beating up Asou. Hiro’s about to take the Heart and become a vessel~
Up $4+ for Oil

Fear me for I am a seer! Is this the last spike? Too soon to tell though~ *Sigh* Up and Down it’s all around~ It makes one dizzy! XD But for now, gas might go up a couple cents overnight because of this news, or it may not and just stablize until the fall resumes again. It’s under $4/gal. I believe as of this morning but, I’m not sure. :/ Still save money like mainiac if you can, just in case this a lead up to the real spike.

As soon as Neuro is updated, I’ll stop with the economy! XD
Who Turned Off the Pump?
July 29, 2008 at 7:26 pm | In Economia | 2 CommentsTags: Economics, Economy, Stock Market
Well, well, looks like oil is taking a dive off a cliff. Maybe someone pushed him?! =O
Gas at the pump was $3.699 at most stations when I went to work at about 1 pm. When I left, it fell at Wal-Mart and 3 other stations to $3.599. So I figured oil fell a bit, or it’s just I’m imagining things.
http://articles.moneycentral.msn.com/Investing/Dispatch/080729markets.aspx
They are now thinking that oil will fall to the $90s/barrel range before year end. Some are more happy go-lucky and suggest $78. I like to point it out it’s like everyone is now jumping on the bandwagon that was populated by me and maybe 500 people. Now everyone wants to get on! >_<
It’s too early to tell, what’s the deal. The last spike will shake things up, and might curtail most people into thinking the end is nigh. The spike wouldn’t happen in one day, it’ll slowly build up for a couple of days before a spike. After that’s happened (Even if it’s a spike of $3-$7) then, I’ll begin to formulate where everything is going.
Still expecting a small rise by Friday. Maybe around $120-$130 at week’s close.
It’s Like a Soap Opera!

Mr. Dow’s health today has worsened I’m afraid. Cousin Nasdaq felt his pain at the great man losing his life. Mr. Dow’s wife S&P 500, was so distraught it hurt her as well! Luckily she was okay. Only weakened by 1.9% in her health. Blah, blah, bla, blah~
Dow is obiviously a very dramatic person. Down 200+ points is very bad, it might gain (45%) some tomorrow only if bad news don’t reach the stock floor. It’s unlikely though that it will recover in just one day. Hm…we need a rally of some sort. What would work though?……I got it! Oil falling at least $3.00 would help greatly! Or maybe something bigger! A large reduction (5%+) in Capital Gains tax?! That’ll work just fine! ^_^
I want recongition for my oil/gas predictions! I was 2 weeks off is all! T_T Better than those who said gas will be $5/gallon by Aug. Or Oil might top $180. That just panicked people! >_<
I’m fine with no rec. ^^ As long as I get better and help people save at the pump, it’ll be fine~

Alive 26-27

More info as I’ve never covered this before:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alive_(manga)
Things are getting good! Taisuke and the friends just got to the Lake where the Heart of Akuro. Nami is fighting Kanon for revenge, as Kanon killed her little brother. Taisuke and Yuta are at the lake and there they meet Megu and Hiro. In the previous chapter Megu made a promise with Okada (Bad idea) in which she can’t ever let go of Taisuke. Which would inhibit fighting, duh. But out of nowhere is seems Yuta is attacked, so he can’t isolate Megu from the Shinigami. Hiro meanwhile is freaking out at the fact Megu left him (He did kidnap her.)
Apparently to resurrect Akuro the power users must fight, so poor Taisuke, Yuta, and Nami have to fight the Comrades of Katsumata!

Weekend report!
July 25, 2008 at 8:29 pm | In Economia, Roba Casuale | Leave a CommentTags: Economy, gas, oil, Stock Market
It’s Friday as far as I know. I could be wrong though! =P
And so ends another week of up and downs. Major ones include Dow’s drama of -200+ this week. Such a crybaby! =(
Apparently more and more people think oil is going to fall a lot. Copycats! I called it 2nd! (I’m sure there was at least one other person who came up with the same idea as me, maybe a hundred, but I don’t know!)
And now for some bad news. As this is the hardest stage, it’s hard to predict where it’s all going (Hopefully down.) I expect it to rise and maybe close next Friday somewhere between $120-$135. It’s a huge gap, but I can’t close it anymore! >_< It sucks! There’s a chance (65%) of a small spike next week. So get gas this weekend. It’s still hovering around $4/gallon for the nation. (It fell here to $3.699, $3.149)
By the end of Aug. it’s hovering around $3.50-$3.75/gallon ($3., nationwide is what I’m predicting. Only if all goes well, people don’t drive up demand suddenly, and it could get lower. I just found out China’s been hoarding gas and diesel, which it pushing the price. As it get’s closer, I’m going to try and get it with 5cents of what it ends at.
And something that didn’t get enough attention!!!!

Oil price manipulation!! Ah~!~! Real Live Conspiracy!

And what do I base this on? Beats me……I don’t know sometimes. I really don’t.
TV Time!

My week (?) Anime viewings summed up in a few sentences:
Black Jack on Monday (Sci-fi)- I enjoyed watching it. It made me interested in the manga! I even watched it from start to finish!
Code Geass Episode 13? on Saturday- It was okay, it didn’t have me wanting to watch more.
Samurai 7 on Thursday (IFC)- I’ve may have watched the entire series already but it’s still enjoyable! ^^
Next Monday, Gurren Lagann; Now and Then, Here and There will be playing of Sci-fi. I plan on watching both! I wonder if Sci-fi will overtake Cartoon Network on Anime shows now? @_@
