Drill here, drill now!!

This is very eye opening stuff that came in our email today. Definitely worth passing along...........Jim

OIL (not a joke)
The U. S.. Geological Service issued a report in April ('08) that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report ( hadn't been updated since '95) on how much oil was in this area of the western 2/3 of North Dakota; western South Dakota and extreme eastern Montana ..... check THIS out:

The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska 's Prudhoe Bay , and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels.. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable... at $107 a barrel, we're looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

'When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea.' says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature's financial analyst.

'This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years.' reports, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It's a formation known as the Williston Basin , but is more commonly referred to as the 'Bakken.' And it stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada . For years, U. S. oil exploration has been considered a dead end.. Even the 'Big Oil' companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago. However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken's massive reserves.... and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL!

That's enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 2041 years straight.

And if THAT didn't throw you on the floor, then this next one should - because it's from TWO YEARS AGO!

U. S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World! Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006

Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in the world. It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction. In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this mother load of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?

They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:

- 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
- 18-times as much oil as Iraq
- 21-times as much oil as Kuwait
- 22-times as much oil as Iran
- 500-times as much oil as Yemen - and it's all right here in the Western United States .

HOW can this BE? HOW can we NOT BE extracting this? Because the environmentalists and others have blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil! Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy.....WHY?

James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've got more oil in this very compact area than the entir e Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION barrels untapped. That's more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post.

Don't think 'OPEC' will drop its price - even with this find? Think again! It's all about the competitive marketplace, - it has to. Think OPEC just might be funding the environmentalists? Got your attention/ire up yet? Hope so! Now, while you're thinking about it .... and hopefully P.O'd, do this:

Pass this along. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you want to complain about gas prices .. because by doing NOTHING, you've forfeited your right to complain.

Now I just wonder what would happen in this country if every one of you sent this to every one in your address book. By the way...this is all true. Check it out at the link below!!! GOOGLE it or follow this link. It will blow your mind. http://www.usgs.gov/newsroom/article.asp?ID=1911

The Pot Calling The Kettle Black, or in this case The President calling the cop a racist.

Just about the time I begin to think that President Obama has done just about all the damage he can do to what little credibility he has left if any, he goes and proves me wrong. Follow the links below for more on this topic.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090724/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_obama_harvard_scholar

Here is my take on the above stories. This Harvard professor, Henry Louis Gates Jr., who just happens to be black was arrested by a white cop after he refused to provide identification per the officer's request. The officer who was investigating a reported burglary at the home was trying to determine if in fact Gates was the resident of the home in question and and was supposed to be there. Rather than provide the requested identification information like any decent, law abiding citizen would do, Gates instead went on an obscenity laced tirade calling the officer a racist and making derogatory comments about the officer's mother. Gates at one point said "this is what happens to a black man in America". A second officer on the scene at the time says the arresting officer followed proper procedure and protocol when he arrested Gates for disorderly conduct.

President Obama responded saying that the police "acted stupidly" in this situation. A day later Obama backed off a little saying he wished "cooler heads had prevailed". You can translate that into he wishes the cracker cop had let the black go free. The problem with Obama's remarks other than its obvious racial overtones is that he commented from a national perspective on a local matter of which he knew nothing about. Which is eerily similar to how runs this country.

Gates said "this is what happens to a black man in America", well if that's how you feel professor Gates, and how much you hate America then feel free to leave. And when you go take Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackass, and Jeremiah Wright with you. America will certainly be better off without such racists and race baiters.

This just goes to show that in today's America white cops are apparently not allowed to arrest blacks even if they commit a crime right in front of the officer without the white officer being labeled a racist. By the way, the arresting officer was appointed by a black police commissioner to be one of two officers who teach other officers about racial profiling and how to avoid it. He has the support of fellow officers both black and white.

I would not even be writing this column and there would be no news stories to reference had it been a black officer who arrested a white man. A black cop arrests a white subject and race never enters the picture. But, let a white cop arrest a black subject and it is automatically a racial issue. Where did we go so wrong in America??

Remember, only a racist would make a non-racial issue out to be a racial issue. Enforcing the law is not a racial issue. The laws apply to everyone regardless of race or ethnicity and should be and in this case were enforced without regard to race or ethnicity. This cop is a hero and this professor is a racist bigot who clearly hates white people. Yet it is the cop that is being vilified by the media and government. Sometimes I wonder and worry about my country, and rightfully so.

Withdraw Your Paypal Funds Without A Verified Account

Not so many can avail credit or debit cards, not to mention it's a long process to have one. Unfortunately, you need to have either of these types of cards to verify your account at Paypal so that you can withdraw your funds from there. Thanks to a Mylot friend and she helped me remember this easy process of withdrawing your money from Paypal. She used it herself and she got her Paypal money in minutes! I have used it once, too when a friend sent me money from abroad and yeah, I got it in a matter of minutes, too. How fast is that?

The idea is that we can actually do online transactions even our Paypal account is not yet verified. We send funds to a friend, do an online purchase, bid at Ebay, etc. only that it is limited to $500. Same thing is true with this process. This is an Online Money Transfer site like Western Union but said to be up to 50% cheaper. The site has an option to use Paypal. It's the same thing as purchasing online then. It is also available in many countries including the Philippines, India, Thailand, Brazil and the rest of Latin America, United Kingdom and a lot more. For more information please check the site by clicking the picture below.


Don't Stand in line. Xoom it online!

Smart Bro Troubleshooting: 'Limited or No Connection'

Since we are paying less, sometimes services of our chosen ISP get crappy. A couple of times I received this error: :'Limited or no connection'. Wondering how I fix mine if I receive this problem? I usually just unplug the Smart Bro thing, whatever they call that cable thing that we attach on our CPU, from the source of electricity. I then just wait for a few seconds after I close the message 'Cable unplugged' before I plug it back. I then notice that the computer logo on my taskbar is something like searching. It says 'Cable unplugged' again after a few turns but it immediately goes back searching again after like a second. It would say again 'Limited or no connection' for a second but after which it's cool. I can now able to use my internet after that. One time though it only worked the second time I unplugged the cable. Yeah, this is actually the same thing the Customer Service Rep would ask you to do if you would call them for this problem. That's according to my cousin. But yeah, I am not sure if it would work for you as well. Just give it a try I guess. (photo: courtesy of http://www.thedogatetheroastbeef.com/)

Finally Got My Jollibee Thermal Mug

Lol... Yeah, I got excited when I knew about this promo Jollibee's having wherein the fastfood chain is giving away a FREE thermal mug for their customer's 8 purchases of their value meals plus a peach mango pie for each meal. I have been looking for a thermal mug since College days since I needed it during night shifts in the hospital. However, I have not really seen the kind of design as this one which I like so much. Also now that I am about to work, I guess it is just so timely. Although I don't usually order the pie thing, I ordered 8 successive times just to have the mug. lol. Yeah, the promo will end July 31st. You can still catch up if you want one!

The most trusted man in America?? Not even close.

Former CBS News anchor Walter Cronkite, who passed away July 17 at the age of 92, was known by many as "the most trusted man in America". This begs the question, trusted by whom? The rest of the left leaning government controlled media perhaps? Or maybe its the mindless robots who believe everything they see on TV or read in print?

To patriotic, freedom loving, free-thinking, Conservative Americans though, he is not the most trusted man in America. As one of that group, I would trust the late Paul Harvey or anyone on Fox News long before Cronkite or anyone else in the mainstream media. All Walter Cronkite did was go on the air night after night and recite the Liberal talking points. Let's not forget, it was Cronkite who picked Dan Blather, arguably the most incompetent anchor to ever grace a camera, as his successor. Not only was he incompetent he was also the poster child for news reporting that is anything but fair and balanced. What is it about CBS News that attracts the worst common denominator of reporters? Cronkite, Rather, Couric, need I go any further?

Yes, Walter Cronkite was one of the most recognizable faces and voices in modern broadcast news history. And, despite his obvious Liberal leanings and reporting, he was loved by many Americans. He was an American icon.

Am I the only one who finds it odd though that Cronkite dies and it's national news for a couple of days, while on the other hand Paul Harvey, who had done news much longer and much better than Cronkite ever did, dies in Febraury and its barely a blip on the national news radar. Cronkite was just another news anchor. Paul Harvey on the other hand was a national treasure. Cronkite was a mouthpiece for Liberal ideology. Harvey was the voice of patriotic, Conservative Americans.

That my friends is the difference. The mainstream Liberal media was most likely happy to see Paul Harvey head off to that broadcast studio in the sky. Of course since he was Conservative they will probably tell you he went below and not above. Cronkite on the other hand, in their twisted minds, is sitting at the right hand of God giving Him news updates at 5PM Monday through Friday.

The same Liberal media types are I'm sure waiting anxiously for the day they can break into regularly scheduled programming and gleefully announce the death of Rush Limbaugh. In those media facilities there will be no weeping and gnashing of teeth on that day. There will be no tears shed. Instead there will be celebrations and pizza parties and what not. Although it wasn't publicized, I'm sure there were some high fives going around Liberal media news shops the day Paul Harvey died.

I remember as a kid growing up watching the CBS Evening News with Walter Cronkite with my parents. Every time he would end his 22 minutes of attempted indoctrination with his signature "and that's the way it is" I would almost become physically ill. I would think "no Walter, that's the way you want us to believe it is". Back then, there was no Fox News Channel to counter the Liberal indoctrination at CBS, ABC, and NBC. Some of us had to figure things out on our own.

So now Walter Cronkite has left us. He left us with Dan Blather. He left us with a lot of Liberal bias. He retired just in time, right before the national news became the joke and laughing stock that it now is. In the grand scheme of things Walter Cronkite was just another in a long line of Liberally biased anchors who have contributed to the mainstream media becoming nothing more the sick caracture of its former self.

And that my friends, is the way it really is. Sorry Walter, I had to use it. It was just too easy.

Mayfield drug saga continues

I blogged recently about NASCAR driver Jeremy Mayfield's suspension from the sport after a May 6 drug test came out positive for methamphetamine. Since that time, Mayfield's attorney got his suspension overturned. According to NASCAR, Mayfield has again tested positive for meth, this time on July (see story at link below)

http://www.nascar.com/2009/news/headlines/cup/07/15/jmayfield.tests.positive.meth.ap/index.html

Now if he is in fact clean and NASCAR is somehow cooking the test results or is using inaccurate testing methods, then clearly they need to taken down a few notches and shown that they can't push people around like this.

However, if the results are correct, and right now that does appear to be the most likely cenario, then Mayfield needs to banned from NASCAR for life. He is a danger to the other drivers, crews, and to the fans. How will his attorneys feel if they somehow manage to get him reinstated knowing he is a user and he causes an accident and another driver, or worse yet an innocent fan or three wind up dead as a result?

Right now, I stand behind NASCAR and their decision to seek a reinstatement of the ban. Our legal system is built on the "innocent until proven guilty" concept. In this case, the drug tests serve as proof of Mayfield's guilt. All he has otherwise is his assertion of innocence. That is not enough to stand up against the proof provided in the test result.

Sorry Jeremy, you lose yet another round. Are you bound and determined to spend all the wealth you have built up racing on an illfated attempt to get away with something against NASCAR policy and against the law? It sure looks that way. Instead of driving a racecar, we may soon Jeremy Mayfield working a fast food counter asking customers "do you want meth, um, I mean fries with that".
