cravnravn Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Haven't seen that jump... 1.59 to 1.69 here.But prices of oil barrels did some last week, about 30% (though, it was so low at $29 that 30% only took it to $36 or so). US shale finally started to taper, they can't handle lower prices like regular drillers. But heard it is back down today, have to check.If you paid $1.91, either you got ripped off or there is a tax change down there.It's bike week down here and if you are in a 30 mile radius of Daytona you get the shaft. The Mrs had to go into Orlando yesterday and prices were 1.64 Quote
dc. Posted March 9, 2016 Posted March 9, 2016 Never count on agreed to production cuts, basic game theory says no one will follow through. Plus, the Iranians are back and the Saudis are trying to another shake production and China is still under producing and under consuming... 2.50 could happen, but I'd bet right in $2 at most through this year and next winter.

Spen Posted March 9, 2016 Author Posted March 9, 2016 I hope it stays closer to $2 than $2.50, with my commute it adds up fast. Quote

dc. Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 General Musing: someone posted about the (original) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 movie coming out 25 years ago today. Question: why did/do the turtles wear masks? I'm just going to leave that there. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted March 24, 2016 Posted March 24, 2016 I would have to think cultural tradition. Quote

papasmurfbell Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 Cops arrested a reporter that went into a records building and was arrested for asking for records. A mailman was arrested for yelling at cops who almost hit his mail truck. I hope the cops are convicted of assaulting a federal employee. Quote

The one I posted, there was at least a warrant and the chips even let the guy go home and come in later. Sounds like they were almost laughing with him. Problem there is systemic, not the cops - not that it's much better. The public records one is telling of our society though. Remind me of Spotlight (movie) Quote
papasmurfbell Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 I saw the video one a while back. A few weeks ago I saw how the US Marshalls went to get a guy who had not paid his student loan. Quote

Spen Posted March 25, 2016 Author Posted March 25, 2016 Saw Batman vs Superman today. I thought it was pretty average. Had a nice hour in it but the beginning and endings were really poorly paced. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 The execs screwed it up. To many disparate story lines and to many character intros. I would have kept it to just the fight between the two and a cameo of WW at the end. Quote
Spen Posted March 25, 2016 Author Posted March 25, 2016 (edited) I saw it for free during work hours so I think my expectations were low and I still didn't think it was very good. I really liked Wonder Womans part (and parts) Sorry. Eisenberg was great. I read a review that said the movie just wasn't fun. Hard to say why but I agree. Edited March 25, 2016 by Spen Quote
papasmurfbell Posted March 25, 2016 Posted March 25, 2016 http://comediansincarsgettingcoffee.com/garry-shandling-its-great-that-garry-shandling-is-still-aliveThis is really interesting since Gary is dead now. Quote
thundercleetz Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 https://m.soundcloud.com/bmore-opinionated-762432073 Cool new Baltimore podcast hosted by Jason LaCanfora and Jerry Coleman. Josh Charles is a guest on the second episode. Quote
GrubberRaven Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Jerry Coleman is so damn negative though... Quote
thundercleetz Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Jerry Coleman is so damn negative though...Honestly, I can't stand him. I like LaCanfora a lot though, and Josh Charles is a fun guest. Quote
papasmurfbell Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 Why would anyone team up with Coleman. He is the worst sports personality in bmore. He is completely useless. After he left 1057 I thought he would finally disappear forever since he has been fired from everywhere. Quote
