GMAC are stopping foreclosures according to bloomberg.....
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2010-09-20/gmac-mortgage-halts-home-forecl...
Hmmm, you have to wonder why??? What is corrective action with regard to some sales, etc, I wonder.
crude oil....crude as fuck. We keep going down but every single pump save BPs pumps have jumped, I mean jumped intra-day...I saw the schlepp breaking out the ladder to fix the price...not a cent or two jump but 20 cent jump.
Then there is the BP stations..anyone in their right mind that is NOT high getting gas there is just pathetic. The BP pumps are always minimum 10 cents higher than others....YES, WE GET TO PAY FOR THEIR SHIT IN THE GULF.....
BAN BP.....BUT THEN AGAIN WHY WOULD YOU WILLINGLY PAY 10 CENTS MORE WHEN YOU CAN GO ACROSS THE STREET TO PAY LESS?
ahhh...Im hoping the end is near.
Maybe if I eat some of the genetically engineered salmon they mention I will be able to survive swimming in the Gulf now that it is all better. No need to cook, just put it near heat and it will blow up.
That will go well with some grilled 99-octane shrimp!
