Just an observation about Economics of "New" BioFuels

Here's a little something: I just saw a commercial about an energy company that was partnering with a company in Brazil to make motor vehicle fuel from "renewable" Sugar Cane.

Think about the following: The global price for consumer sugar will rise because of the diverting of that sugar away from use with food stuff. Thus the companies that purchase the sugar for their food products to sell to the general public will have to raise prices.

The general public will then push back on those producers because of the high prices. Therefore, in order for those producers to offset the rising prices they resort to using "High Fructose Corn Syrup". While, consumers will be happy that the prices of their favorite sweetened products are no longer rising, the cycle starts all over again this time with the fight against HFCS.

What say you?

An End of School Year Message To Teachers and Parents: ReCharge & Thank You!

As the school year is starting to come to a close, I want to take a moment to recognize ALL the Educators and their hard work. Some already have their plans for the summer just a countdown calendar way. However, I want all Educators to watch this FANTASTIC video to recharge for the homestretch to Summer Vacation and hopefully something sticks from Rita's Awe Inspiring Speech.

Parents: Watch this and Understand that Good or Bad the Teacher, they need our complete support especially if they truly believe they aren't paid to like our kids ;)



Thank you,

Something I Told You Once Before

I've said it before and I will say it again:

Two things to do to become successful in life:

1. CHOP WOOD

2. CARRY WATER
