Oil!

Posted on by Jordan

Sorry, this may not be the most interesting topic for today…

I just saw that oil closed below $45 a barrel today, its mind-blowing in a way. It was brushing $150 over the summer, and now look at it. Back a month and a half ago I thought to myself “its going to have to drop below $40 before it comes back up” but I didn’t say anything because I figured everyone would say I was crazy. Now it starts to look almost possible, although maybe the reasons its staying low aren’t that awesome. I know people, who should know better than to make hard predictions, who said things like “I guarantee oil will be above $100 / barrel by January.” I am probably too nice to beat them over the head with those words come January, but it doesn’t mean I haven’t thought about it.

Gas in Omaha, 89 octane with 10% ethanol is going for $1.57 a gallon right now too, in case you wondered.

check back tomorrow, maybe I will have something related to Heather and Jordan 🙂

Slow Day….

Not a whole lot happened today…. Makes posting hard

If I haven’t mentioned before, having Heather living in Blair kind of sucks. We don’t get to see each other anywhere near as often as we would like. Not to mention the Sprint-has-horrible-service-at-the-Gutschow-farm problem that keeps phone calls short and painful.

oh, and oil closed under $50 / barrel today… We wont even talk about the stock market. Not that I am changing my policy of aggressive investing, but there is a little sticker shock if you do the math on whats been lost over the past year.
