In trying to get a grip on just how huge the profit just posted by Exxon for last quarter is, I decided to break it down.

It’s just thirty-nine cents a day. Every day of the past three months. Per person. in America.

Yes, my family of five would contribute $2.00 a day. And we don’t even shop at Exxon (in homage to all the dead wildlife in Valdez, besides – what do they need my money for?)

Oh, yeah, in other news, housing prices have dropped the most year-over-year than they have since I was four years old. And the Cowboys don’t have a quarterback, but then what else is new?

Have a lovely day.
