Black Gold

* So somebody issues a statement that they think oil is going to $105 a barrel, and that's all she wrote for the market futures. Oil rallies on the statement, and stocks go down. The interesting thing is that nobody was predicting that oil would go higher when it was $10-12 a barrel in the late 90's. Now, after a huge move, everybody has big projections. Isn't that the way it works, though?

* I was a little shocked that Jessica got let go on American Idol. Anwar deserved to be there for making moronic song choices, even if he can sing really well. But I think it's just a matter of weeks before Anthony, Scott, and Nadia are let go.

* I wish barking dogs had a volume slider.

* Seems like there is lots to worry about. This one is on the environment.

* America's Next Top Model... Noel... CYA! Which, is shocking because there's no way Lluvy is going to last many more weeks. I'm still a Naima fan.

* Terry Schiavo passed away.

* Thief steal dog poop.

* I still think the market is going to rally, and it has been going up somewhat since last week. What a grind, though.

* Jessica Alba alert! She's also in the movie The Fantastic Four.

* Larry Kudlow on Supply-side.

* I don't think the Pope will be around much longer. Maybe Jerry Falwell, too.

* Melissa Lee of CNBC is on the road today. I wonder how they determine who takes the floor of the stock exchange versus who goes out in the field, or who is in the studio?
