The gas price blues

With oil up to $135 a barrel and the national average for a gallon of gasoline at $3.99, people have to begin wondering when it will ever end. Get my take on this issue.

To do list: The earth

There are many important issues in people's minds in this day and age, but how important is it on the scale of necessity? Gas prices are forcing people to stay home and rising the cost of practically everything. People need to open their eyes and see what is of true concern.

Scotty grab your guns... and food

Gas, food, energy and foreclosures are setting records while employment is reaching record lows - what is in store for us? My suggestion: don't wait to prepare yourself. Learn what this southern redneck has to say about the precautions I'm taking.

Energy boom: when will it begin?

Oil and batteries. Is this what our future holds or has it not been written yet? Being as hard headed as I am, I need answers as to how and why. Governement funded energy technology or lack of governement in the oil market? Do we need something new? Take a look at these pressing issues and leave your feedback!

Wind, Solar and Water?

With the price of oil, global warming and lack of food due to disasters and the expansion of corn being used as fuel, the world is quickly rushing to discover the future of energy. What will be the next big thing and why isn't the government or billion-backed oil companies working to unleash it when they can reap the rewards of a better product? We all know it goes back to the good ole fashioned dollar bill. The buck.

Dear Mister Taxman

Taxes were created to help people but with the increasing number of unemployed and those who are just simply not willing to work, a few people end up paying for the rest. The government has been finding more ways to tax what people do. The only taxes that seem reasonable for me to pay are the ones that I use. Let the government hear this message!

Petroleum prices are fixed

Oil and gas prices vary from day to day. When they rise, we see the new tag almost imediately but when prices decline, they slowly gown down. Who is in charge of this? What can be done about the monopoly of the government and big oil companies?

A new year for a new world

Well now that 2008 and the mess that came with it is in the history books, it is time to look ahead at where 2009 will take us. I'm sure it will amaze me more than any other year before it.

Angels and Demons book and movie review

The Real Never Ending Story

Yes, life is a miracle. The fact that we are here is beyond belief. One generation comes and another goes. It is a cycle, the circle of life. Life is great, but isn't always easy, we can all testify to that. In most cases, we make it harder on ourselves. Life is simply a re-run. It's hard not to see the careless repetition. In this issue, I'd like to answer the question - why do we just keep going in circles? The shortest distance between two points is a straight line!
