    Iran War. . . USA Up 2-0 in the First Period

    It’s all pretty crazy & we (the globe) will have to wait another 36 hours or so to see which side the flip-flop lands on I guess. 50/50 odds depending on how spicy tomorrow’s supper at the White House is. Iran, not the United States, that has imposed a "toll system" for ships passing through...

    Has your gas/diesel/natural gas increased in cost since February 28th? It has in the US too….but it affects those closer to that strait first ‘cuz oil (tankers) travels about jogging speed, so Africa and Asia and Europe were affected first…but we’re all affected. Part of Trump’s logic to say...
