So, I sign on to my Yahoo account and see the top local news stories. One is that Enstar is looking to import liquified natural gas to cover the anticipated shortfall for this winter in Alaska. The next story below it is that BP is looking to close their plant in Kikiski that is producing liquified natural gas. Do you think that any of the CEO's of either of these companies have Yahoo accounts?

Well, if they didn't ship it all out, then we wouldn't be in this predictament. Then they want to hike the price too. What a bunch of losers, who knew what they were doing in the first place, but still didn't care. And people say that the economy is getting better.
