Enjoy While You Still Can………..Exxon
Unbelievable. Exxon Mobil just reported the biggest profit ever for a U.S. company. It raked in a billion dollars a week in pure profit in the July-September period, 58% more than a year ago.
I don’t know whether to admire the accomplishment or hurl.
Crude prices hit an all-time high during the quarter, which helped boost Exxon’s profit even though its production actually fell 8% from last year. With that kind of demand, Exxon execs are shrugging off the economic storm felling other companies right now.

“For Brutus is an honorable man”
Apparently Exxon didn’t make enough to pay for the mess and the destroyed fisheries left in Alaska.
And how in all good conscience can PBS give space to Exxon and mining interests? ( by under funding and letting the camel get his nose in the tent)

T. Boone Pickens original “gift” to OSU of $160 Million, had been invested & had grown to over $400 Million. With all the stock market turmoil the investment had now shrunk to $120 Million. Poor T had to kick in another $60 million to finish the Athletic Village. How about spreading the wealth T-Boner? You think he has a vested interested in tomorrow’s election?
