Oregon State Leading Bio Fuels Myth

There is a myth that the State of Oregon is on the leading edge of Alternative Fuels (AF) production and sales. The fact is that currently there is only a single Biodiesel production plant in the sate, one under construction and two Ethanol production plants. While there are less than 50 places to purchase both.

We contend that if Oregon really were on the leading edge then we would have 20 production plants and 200 places to purchase the stuff.

What we do have is a lot of otherwise, until they were elected, bright legislature types that are the next best thing to a dead boat anchor. See our research below.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Biodiesel Production Plants Under Construction or Expansion http://www.nbb.org/buyingbiodiesel/producers_marketers/ProducersMap-Construction.pdf

Commercial Biodiesel Production Plants http://www.nbb.org/buyingbiodiesel/producers_marketers/ProducersMap-Existing.pdf

There are no, zero, none, zilch BQ-9000 Accredited Producers in Oregon state at his time.

Biodiesel Production: 105 Plants producing biodisel now with new Construction 77 and Expansion 8. Oregon's total is two, one of each.

Ethanol Production: are listed here http://www.ethanolrfa.org/industry/locations/ Notice Oregon only currently produces 108 million gallons a year. However are only three service stations in Oregon to purchase it at. http://afdcmap2.nrel.gov/locator/FindNearResult.asp
While there are 40 stations to purchase Biodiesel from.
Far less that the states that are actually on the leading edge, like Illinois or Minnesota, or Texas for instance. http://afdcmap2.nrel.gov/locator/FindNearResult.asp.

That is how we see it.

The Governer Of Oregon Mandates Freezing To Death For citizens

The Oregon Governor, Kulongoski, wants all of the legal citizens of the state to freeze to death.

And we quote "This bill continues the Oregon legacy of innovation and environmental stewardship and represents the single most important action we can take to accelerate our transition to a renewable energy market"

Read the full story here http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/index.ssf?/base/news/1179977125310910.xml&coll=7

So there ya have it, move or freeze. This is what happens, in our opinion, when real stupid people get elected to public office.

That is how we see it.

WHEREAS it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favour; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me "to recommend to the people of the United States a DAY OF PUBLICK THANSGIVING and PRAYER, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:" NOW THEREFORE, I do recommend and assign THURSDAY, the TWENTY-SIXTH DAY of NOVEMBER next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed;-- for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to establish Constitutions of government for our sasety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted;-- for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge;-- and, in general, for all the great and various favours which He has been pleased to confer upon us.

And also, that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions;-- to enable us all, whether in publick or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us); and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.

GIVEN under my hand, at the city of New-York, the third day of October, in the year of our Lord, one thousand seven hundred and eighty-nine.

Oil Shortage - How We Got To One!

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country. Well, there's a very simple answer.
Nobody bothered to check the oil.We just didn't know we were getting low. The reason for that is purely geographical. Our OIL is located in:

ALASKA, California, Coastal Florida, Coastal Louisiana, Kansas, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania and Texas.

Our DIPSTICKS are located in Washington , DC !!!!

It Must Be Friday If You Can Sing This Song

If you can sing this song it must be friday

Words and Music By Mike Cross

Well a Scotsman clad in kilt left a bar on evening fair
And one could tell by how we walked that he drunk more than his share
He fumbled round until he could no longer keep his feet
Then he stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
He stumbled off into the grass to sleep beside the street

About that time two young and lovely girls just happend by
And one says to the other with a twinkle in her eye
See yon sleeping Scotsman so strong and handsome built
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
I wonder if it's true what they don't wear beneath the kilt

They crept up on that sleeping Scotsman quiet as could be
Lifted up his kilt about an inch so they could see
And there behold, for them to see, beneath his Scottish skirt
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
Was nothing more than God had graced him with upon his birth

They marveled for a moment, then one said we must be gone
Let's leave a present for our friend, before we move along
As a gift they left a blue silk ribbon, tied into a bow
Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
Around the bonnie star, the Scots kilt did lift and show

Now the Scotsman woke to nature's call and stumbled towards a tree
Behind a bush, he lift his kilt and gawks at what he sees
And in a startled voice he says to what's before his eyes.
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize
Ring ding diddle diddle I de oh ring di diddly I oh
O lad I don't know where you been but I see you won first prize

And That is how we see it.

Misunderstanding, or Just Plain Ignorant?

In the light of the speaker of the House gallivanting around the globe undermining the U.S. State Department, we are wondering if they have missed the point of a speech that was given on September 13, 2001 by the current sitting president.

"We will not only deal with those who dare attack America, we will deal with those who harbor them and feed them and house them.” This explains how we got into Iraq to begin with and why we will not negotiate with Syria or Iran. Full text of the speech can be found here, http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/09/20010915-4.html

It appears that the speaker of the house is interfering with the executive branch, something they have accused the executive branch of doing to the legislative branch. Odd thing when one is so stuck on ones self that the obvious is missed.

That's how we see it.

Do You Really Need That TV Set?

In a year or two the way that television signals are sent will change, read more here http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?file=/c/a/2007/03/13/MNGRHOK7S01.DTL. Question is, do we all really need to receive digital idiot box signals?

Here is my masters plan, when the analog thing quits he uses the TV for movies via the VCR and CD player. Also he can use a PlayStation or an Nintendo or some such. News can be received over the Internet, five minutes to get the same tired old stuff that broadcasters now take an hour to push out.

No advertisers gunk or other time wasters. Might even take up book reading all the while wondering just why it is we have people starving in the cold when congress sets aside 900 million plus for a singe entertainment system?
