“Let the price rise in those countries, the thinking goes, demand will fall, and global prices will come down too.”

As originally seen on BccList.com here…

“Also, did you know, India’s inflation has climbed to an unbearable 11+%?  Modern day caste system at its best.  Say goodbye to global demand for oil when their economy crashes shortly.”

Strangely CNN didn’t mention India’s HUGE inflation issue – since nobody likes to say the “i” word in America – but at least they covered India’s faltering economy.

Obama won’t need your elderly, racist, and/or semitic vote anyways.  The 100+ million voters will ask themselves if they want 4 more years of the last 8 and the choice will be pretty clear.

While the “truth,” this is definitely a Vino induced posting.

1) The Amalfi Coast drive isn’t as intense as it’s rumored to be.  But, there are a ton of hairpin turns, the roads are narrow enough for only two cars and passing mopeds, and the sights are amazing.

2) I don’t want to leave Positano. Ever.

3) Make sure you pack CDs if you plan a trip abroad.  We overpaid for some crap.  More on that when I have decent enough time.  Sort of funny.

4) This goes back to Tuscany, but, Gregorian chants are as lame as you could imagine.  And, the monks constantly have a neutral or frowned look.  Life isn’t that horrible dude…you do nothing but sing and pray all day.

5) There’s a ton more but my time is nearly expired and I’ve had too much “Vino.”

Out!
