The Blame Game: Why Is the Price of Gasoline Through the Roof?

Tell me what was so wrong with the so-called “failed Presidency” of Jimmy Carter? Who failed who? Makes about as much sense as celebrating Ronald Reagan as a hero.

The Blame Game: Why Is the Price of Gasoline Through the Roof?

30 cents a gallon in 1957!!! We never saw gas that high in Texas until the Arab embargo in the 70’s! I paid 15 cents a gallon in 1968. These figures are very hard to believe, unless you live in Hawaii

The Blame Game: Why Is the Price of Gasoline Through the Roof?

Wrong question. The question should be, why have our leaders allowed the U.S. dollar to become so devalued? Who is benefiting from our pain? Impeach. Convict. Execute the traitors.

This Is Not an Endorsement ... I Just Like My Mattress

Oooo, after a hectic day of trials and fighting the 10,000 things, to lay down on a great old friend of a mattress and give up to the sweet loving arms of Morpheus - “to sleep, perchance, to dream”. This is great bliss.

What Happens to Us After We Die?

While I must agree that in the Beginning, Man created God in His Image, I do believe in Eternity. And it is weirder than we can ever say. Or in other words, “The Tao that can be spoken is not the eternal Tao”.

What, you can’t you get wowOwow on the Kindle? That has to be fixed.

What are you reading that you really love?

And now for something completely different - Scientific American - my favorite magazine!

Change the World

Please don’t yell. Turn off that caps lock and type clearly. We can read you with you yelling.

On '60 Minutes:' Is Gastric Bypass Surgery More Than Just a Way to Lose Weight?

I am disappointed to see wowOwow used for commericals for CBS. I am a 60 Minutes fan - or was. My old analog TV broke and I have found that life is good without - hey, I have this net connection. Still, this DSL is too slow for most streaming video, in-clud-ing CB-S’s we-b sit-e. Now that it has been broadcast, could Ms. Stahl give us a link to a transcript or a summary?

It Happened Last Night: Can That Be Cannabis?

No, marijuana *is* not a completely harmless drug - no drug (like alchohol, for example) is. But freedom means adults are allow to make adults choices. But did you know that 100% of all child molster drink water or a drink that contains water? What is it about water that makes these child molsters do what they do? Anyone done the research on THAT?

It Happened Last Night: Can That Be Cannabis?

If the pot is strong enough, eating it can be exactly this type of experience. It takes longer to start, and last longer and can be more intense than smoking. And you will still get the red, red eyes and the munchies - if you can get up grab the food! I basically O.D. with “space cake” in Amsterdam, the most powerful marijuana experience in 20 years of indulging. Lasted about 36 hours and it has been 8 years now and I have not done anything like that again. This single piece of cake was at least more powerful than a bunch of brownies I made in the U.S. with an entire oz. A tribute to good hydroponics! I believe in freedom - do what you like. But play safe and make informed decisions.

Today is Earth Day! What's the most wasteful thing that you do?

I sit in my car with the air conditioner running and play the stereo. Sometimes it is just to finish the song playing but sometimes, I have to leave my office and go out to lunch and clear my head with some loud rock’n’rock. Bad for the planet, I know, but it keeps me from going postal on my office.
