A Year Gone By…

June 10th, 2009

Hard to believe a year has passed since my last post.

Gasoline prices DID drop to $1.79 - although they are on their way back up. For the moment.

In fact… almost everything I predicted for the past 3 or 4 years on this blog HAS come true.

It’s been an amazing year.

I just a few months I’ll be finished with my MBA - in case you’re wondering where I’ve been lately. It’s difficult to write and go to school full time - especially at a top tier university where the program is difficult and demanding. But… I wanted to achieve a few things. One of the things that have always bothered me is that many of the people spouting much of the drivel on libertarian blogs have a sheepskin that they believe sets them apart. So… I went and got me one of those sheepskins too. And I got it from a university that is known for the quality of their program. Which will make me not only the most highly educated member of my erstwhile family - but will give me ’street cred’ as well.

As soon as I’ve put the finishing touches on that I’ll be back in force.

One of the first things I’ll do is to revisit the postings of the last few years in light of new developments and do a gigantic, “in-your-face” “I told you so” dance.

In the meantime - don’t sweat the rising prices at the pump.

Big Oil is tap-dancing on a landmine with their renewed round of speculation and market manipulation. It doesn’t take Fellini to figure out that the only logical outcome of that stupidity will be an economic flash and a fire-ball followed by a giant mushroom cloud.

As I’ve said before… I personally won’t be happy until a few of the CEO’s of those companies are marched off to Federal Prison in little orange jumpsuits.

Soon…

Very soon.

See you in the Fall. Last Class is in October!

I’ll try to post a little between here and there.
