    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    In a glass half full observation...at least the Hormuz pillar is pretty plumb.

    What are you guys paying for gas?

    For the last couple of weeks, diesel has hovered between $4.849 and $4.999 at the stations I go past in Laurel.

    Cumulative burden of taxes

    For the entirety of my career at the refinery, I too, was worth more dead than alive. I teased my wife that it kept me on the straight and narrow. It is a great circumstance, if a company's benefits put you into that situation. My wife was a stay at home mom, when our children were too young...

    Cumulative burden of taxes

    A troubling aspect to the entire tax structure, is, at least on the federal level, for many decades we have approved services that were not paid for entirely, in real time. Two things that politicians have realized, is cutting tax rates is a political winner, and cutting services in a...

    Cumulative burden of taxes

    No. Our kids have been out of school for decades, now. We nearly always vote for any mill levy for local school districts. I view it as paying it back, for the education that I received with public funding. I'm not inclined, at all, for any of my tax obligations being used to fund vouchers for...

    Cumulative burden of taxes

    If I could change any one thing about our tax system, it would be a more equal treatment for income derived from labor, compared to income earned from capital. The wealthy investor class has very favorable treatment for their earnings in various markets. A long time ago, when I was not long out...

    Average age of the hunt talk crowd.

    A few years ago, I was sawing a fallen tree that was blocking the trail. It was in a spot that made getting around it a little dicey on horseback. A young man was coming down the trail, carrying an elk quarter. He collapsed to rest, about fifty yards from my brother and I. His partner had...

    What are you guys paying for gas?

    Diesel dropped below $5 at the Laurel Town Pump. It's $4.99/gallon. Of course, I purchased diesel a few days ago at $5.079/gallon. It's going to bounce around for a while.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    It is difficult to refute what you post, on the facts. Everyone in the world is paying more for oil products than before the war started. Prices will not begin to decline significantly, until there is a lasting peace. How fast they come down, depends on how much damage is done to the oil...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    Regarding the fragile cease fire. Who could doubt the word of the Iranians, or Trump? I hope it leads to some resolution, but would not bet on it.

    Average age of the hunt talk crowd.

    I turn 75 next month. Recently, I told my wife that there is no way to spin 75, other than your'e old. As far as hanging it up, it is year by year. I intend to hunt elk again this year. I put in for moose and bighorn sheep tags. I exercise diligently to hold onto what is left. I hope to be...

    What are you guys paying for gas?

    Today is the first day that diesel cracked $5/gallon, locally. It's 5.029/gallon at the Town pump in Laurel. I filled my newer truck, in preparation for a field trial this weekend. It was just under $120 to fill the tank.

    Sen Mike Lee as AG?

    On balance, I think he is less powerful over the long term, if he accepts the position of AG. Trump's marching orders are prosecute his enemy list, and keep a lid on the Epstein files. That's a full plate. If he were to talk Trump into some extreme executive order involving public lands, it...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    Depending on what that involves...Byron Noem might be into it.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    No, I've been riding that horse for a long time. It has been a good horse, over the years.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    It appears a few are buying it this morning.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    That's another stock that has been good to me. I bought a decent amount 12 years ago.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    You can find news to fit nearly every scenario. Today's oil move is clearly a response to hope that the Iran war ends soon. Here is a story that whether or not the Strait of Hormuz opens or remains closed is as important as the war ending or continuing...

    The loss of my father

    I am sorry for your loss. It will be thirty years this May, since my father passed. I am now older than my father was, when he died. You will, in time, be able to think about him, without too much pain. He will be in your thoughts for the rest of your life.
