Fw: Oil – You better sit down for this.

IN GOD WE TRUST!

Oil – You better sit down for this. - Here’s an interesting read, important and verifiable information : About 6 months ago, the writer was watching a news program on oil and one of the Forbes Bros. was the guest. The host said to Forbes, “I am going to ask you a direct question and I would like a direct answer; how much oil does the U.S. have in the ground?” Forbes did not miss a beat, he said, “more than all the Middle East put together.” Please read below. The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April 2008 that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report (hadn’t been updated since 1995) 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.’ 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 2006! 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 motherload 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 entire 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 yet? Now, while you’re thinking about it, 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 complain about gas prices – by doing NOTHING, you forfeit 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.

Spelling errors not mine

Please join me in remembering a great icon of
the entertainment community.  The Pillsbury
Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection
and trauma complications from repeaded pokes
in the belly.  He was 70
Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased
coffin.  Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay
their respects, including Mrs. Buttersworth,
Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty
Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain
Crunch.  The grave site was piled high wiht
flours.
Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly
described Doughboy as a man who never
knew how much he was kneaded.  Doughboy
rose quickly in show business, but his later life
was filled with turnovers.  He was considered a
very smart cookie, but wasted much of his
dough on half-baked schemes.  Despite being
a little flaky at times, he still was a crusty old
man and was considered a positive roll model
for millions.
Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough,
three children: John Dough, Jane Dough and
Dosey Dough, plus they had one in the oven.
He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop
Tart.
The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20
minutes.
If this made you smile for even a brief second,
please rise to the occasion and take time to
pass it on and share that smile with someone
else who may be having a crumby day and
kneads a lift.

I also like top hats

Speaking of…

I only like the fat ones

You might be a redneck

 

You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase, ‘One nation, under God.’


You might be a redneck if: You’ve never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say ‘ Christmas’ instead of ‘Winter Festival.’

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You’ve never burned an American flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren’t afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You’d give your last dollar to a friend.

If you got this email from me, it is because I believe that you, like me, have just enough Red Neck in you to have the same beliefs as those talked about in this email.

God Bless the  USA  !

The Problem with Google Wave

When I got my wave account three people in my contacts list showed up in my wave contacts list. One of them was a friend I knew at Google. I sent her a wave about a month ago and haven’t heard back. The problem I suspect is the same problem I have with it which is I don’t want to bother checking yet another inbox.

If Google can’t get their own employees to use this thing, how are they going to get the rest of us to do it. IMHO, no one is going to use this thing until they integrate it with email.

WalMart Cash Back Scam

All types of scams are out there, especially in this economic climate. Beware Folks!

I got this email today and decided this has to be forwarded. People have to check their receipts at the till, no matter how busy it is. It is you who will pay if not, not the cashier and definitely not the store.This is especially a good thing to watch for with holiday shopping coming up. Snopes.com says this is UNDETERMINED, but definitely worth knowing.

 

It happened at Wal-Mart (Supercenter Store #1279, 10411 N Freeway 45, Houston, TX 77037) a month ago. I bought a bunch of stuff, over $150, & I glanced at my receipt as the cashier was handing me the bags.  I saw a cash-back of $40.  I told her I didn’t  request a cash back & to delete it.  She said I’d have to take the $40 because she couldn’t delete it.  I told her to call a supervisor.

 

Supervisor came & said I’d have  to take it.  I said NO!  Taking the $40 would be a cash advance against my Discover & I wasn’t paying interest on a cash advance!!!!!  If they couldn’t delete it then they would have to delete the whole order.  So the supervisor had the cashier delete the whole order & re-scan everything!  The second time I looked at the electronic pad before I signed & a cash-back of $20 popped up.  At that point I told the cashier & she deleted it. The total came out right. The cashier agreed that the electronic pad must be defective. Obviously the cashier knew the electronic pad was defective because she NEVER offered me the $40 at the beginning.  Can you imagine how many people went through before me & at the end of her shift how much money she pocketed?

 

Just to alert everyone.  My co worker went to Milford, DE Wal-Mart last week. She had her items rung up by the cashier.  The cashier hurried her along and didn’t give her a receipt.  She asked the cashier for a receipt and the cashier was annoyed and gave it to her.  My co worker didn’t look at her receipt until later that night. The receipt showed that she asked for $20 cash back.  SHE DID NOT ASK FOR CASH BACK!  My co-worker called Wal-Mart who investigated but could not see the cashier pocket the money.  She then called her niece who works for the bank and her niece told her this. This is a new scam going on. The cashier will key in that you asked for cash back and then hand it to her friend who is the next person in line.

 

Please, please, please check your receipts right away when using credit or debit cards! This is NOT limited to Wal-Mart, although they are the largest retailer so they have the most incidents.

 

 

I wonder how many senior citizens & low income families have been, or will be, “stung” by this one?

 

To make matters worse…THIS SCAM CAN BE DONE ANYWHERE, at ANY  RETAIL or WHOLESALE LOCATION!
