TOKYO (Reuters) – Oil prices fell to a new six-month low below $60 a barrel on Monday as news of BP restoring output at Prudhoe Bay added to a sense of healthy supply.
U.S. light, sweet crude for November fell 56 cents to $59.99 a barrel by 0037 GMT.
Think I’m the only one that believes this is due to the upcoming election month here in the States?
I really want one of these eNooks but the price is kinda high…
Maybe if I hint enough about it, I can convince someone, who I happened to spend a small fortune on this fall, to get me it for Christmas or something!

I would really like to get the house stained, even partially, before winter. The main reason is to try to deter the woodpecker that has taking a liking for my house lately.
Was thinking about taking off work this afternoon to get a start on it, but now it looks like they updated the weekend forecast to show favorable temperatures for this weekend.
If anyone is interested in lending a hand this weekend let me know.
Did I mention there will be plenty of beverages to those that show up?
I’ve been using Zoundry over the last few weeks to do my posting to this site. I like the tool, it’s free, and it works pretty good.
I had been using Post2Blog, but since it is not free I needed to always register and un-register as I moved from computer to computer.
Well, in their last version they created a way to make a mobile version of their software. So now I can just carry my Post2Blog install around on my thumb drive and have all my draft posts with me.
So far it seems to work pretty good…

I posted a bunch of new photos from the last week or two up on flickr. Go check them out.
I updated the site a little bit tonight. I thought it needed a fresh look and I really like how fast this design loads.
ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) – Ethiopian scientists unveiled on Wednesday a 3.3 million-year-old fossil of a girl, which they believe is the most complete skeleton ever found.
The fossil including an entire skull, torso, shoulder blade and various limbs was discovered at Dikaka, some 400 kms northeast of the capital Addis Ababa near the Awash river in the Rift Valley.
“The finding is the most complete hominid skeleton ever found in the world,” Zeresenay Alemseged, head of the Paleoanthropological Research Team, told a news conference.
He said the fossil was older than the 3.2 million year old remains of “Lucy” discovered in 1974, and described by scientists as one of the world’s greatest archaeological finds.
“The new bones belong to a three year old girl who lived 3.3 million years ago — 150,000 years before Lucy,” Zeresenay said.
I remember watching the “Lucy” stuff on evolution years ago and it always got my interest. Funny how long some of those skeletons can last…
A few times a year you are able to buy an entire computer for like $99. Usually it is around the big holiday sales and the supplies are limited but you can buy a whole computer for $199 fairly often now in the sale papers.
Unbelievable that my first computer cost over $1400 and it is now a fraction of the speed of the new ones. It came with 256 MB of RAM which was pretty good at the time.
Anyway, last night I went to Super Wal-Mart to get a graphing calculator for college. The one I need rings up at $119.
Where is the price markdown in this technology? I think that is even more than they were back then when I bought my first computer.
I think they just fleece the college kids because they know that those calculators are required for the course.
