The Magic 8-Ball Says 2009 Will Be...

I saw this cartoon this morning and could not help but to think about the challenges facing the Emperor, his board of selected accomplices, and the good people of Morrisville, taxpayers and students alike, during anno domini two thousand and nine.

Does anyone [someone, please!!] have an optimistic line to add?

....at least the Morrisville School District is locked into a rock-solid stable heating oil price of $4.33/gallon.

Ah, if the board had only followed the sage advice Mr. Bill Farrell espoused at the 12/17 board meeting to lock into superlow oil prices before they spike, and not lock into superhigh prices before they plummet.

Now I gotta tell ya, I'm definitely not an expert on this, but I've been living in and around fossil fuels my entire life, and I've seen things no man or woman for that matter should ever have to see believe you me, but it seems to me millions of people have tried to make a living predicting which way commodity and equity prices and interest rates are gonna go and they still get it wrong a good bit of the time.

If Mr. Farrell can do it, what's he doing in Morrisville? I think I know the answer - he can't, but he likes to play Monday Morning Quarterback.

How's about a little less lip service, and a little more actual service?
