Bear Stearns basically folds; worth $63 a share on Thursday, $30 on Friday, $2 today

Gold hits another all-time high

Oil hits another all-time high

Dollar hits a new all-time low

Fed cuts interest rates before a meeting two days from now

I changed the oil in my car

ALL ON A SUNDAY!!!!

The dollar is not at an all-time low.

Adjusted for inflation, gold is nowhere near its all-time high.

Glad to hear you got your oil changed.

Oh good, Oil-Finder is here. Someone to talk some sense to us.

BTW, do you do oil changes, or do you just find the stuff?

Don't worry about anything

The Lord with Provideth.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'A') local church is giving back to the community by offering to pay for your gas. It's called a 'gas buy down,' and with current prices peaking near $3.50, members of the Xenia Christian Center say it's the best way to give back to the community.

Members of his church will spend two hours Saturday afternoon fueling up the community at the UDF store on West Second Street in Xenia. And the best part - the church is paying for 25-cents on every gallon of gas customers put in their tanks.

So it makes sense that whatever it is that people are needing relief in, we can do that. So we're going to buy gas."

hmmm...i know that station. my office was in the building next door for a few years. It would cost two gallons to drive down there and back....nope, the math doesn't work. No deal for me then!
Stop filling dumpsters, as much as you possibly can, and everything will get better.

Just think it through.
It's not hard to do.

You could probably break even if you bought 40 gallons or so. Plus, save your soul in the process, don't forget about that.

Someone with a tanker should drive up and say 'filler up' - and then sell the discounted gas at full price down the street.

I was thinking the tanker route too.
