Oil's Up, and 1043 Page Views

Reports from bloomberg (and CNN Commodities last night, though the exact CNN amount escapes me at this present hour [8:30AM at Uni]) indicate that a Barrel is at it's highest price in about two weeks, SMH yesterday roped itself a queensland academic to quote on the inevitability of oil rising, and even the Daily Telegraph had a story on the price going up in the future.

Meanwhile, I got an email for the washington thing, even though i'm not elegible anymore, and it's enough to make you break down, the Senate Energy Comittee (democratic office) was listed as a possible. The one I would've picked on my own, the one where I'd be working the government end of all this oil business. they probably would've busted my visa anyway, cos I joined the Greens as a tax write-off last year. well, that, and as nutty as they are, they're the only party talking about alternative energy (The bureaucracy on the other hand - alternatives rock, and they're pushing through all they can past the big parties).

yeah, 1043 page views, and 761 visits, 30 this past week. most of it's random blog readers, there for half a minute (hi guys, stick around a while, post a comment, I'll read your blog if you leave an adress). I'd have to be a lot more regular and exact with my oil summary if i'm to get anywhere, like the young liberal blogger, listed on Financial Times, and busted by Media Watch the other day. Hah! oh, and 8 days till star wars. just give me a lightsaber and a couple of years training my force powers, lets see how much oil you'll be using then. Make mine a blue one. posted by Keegan at 8:24 am
