WENT TO FOODSTOP TO BUY AN NFL GLASS...

Oil falls to 3-month low (Reuters, 9/06/06)

Oil prices sank more than a dollar Wednesday to their lowest level in more than three months as robust U.S. inventories at the end of the summer driving season dulled bullish sentiment.

U.S. light crude for October delivery tumbled $1.10 to settle at $67.50 on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Earlier in the session, the front-month contract touched as low as $67.45, the lowest since May 22.

"We're not hyperventilating over Nigeria, Israel or Iran. We've run out of adrenaline and what we're left with are inventories that are higher than a year ago and a hurricane season that has been more fizzle than sizzle," said Tim Evans of Citigroup Global Markets.


...and they gave us a free tank of gas with it...

Anybody else remember the promo back in the 70s (not sure which company) where you bought a book with a page for each NFL team and got player stickers to fill out each page? OJ's NFL glass comment reminded me of this.

Oh and yes this is a last ditch attempt by the evil oil companies to save the GOP from the Democratic monsoon that is coming (sarcasm off).
