yes...but when that well becomes commercial or producing, it is barrell after barrell of oil.....if the price of oil is 65 per barrell and the cost to produce that barrell is what....$8 to $15 (guessing) that's a whole lot of profit.....times 40 plus

Hey Chop!! Love the Avator. I love Reggie Bush. That was a huge a gamble the Texans took with Mario Williams and gift wrapping Bush for you guys. The Saints have had a great off season so far. Can't wait until the NFL season starts. Should be a great year. Thanks for the picks

Choptalk,
Your friggin insane for saying the oil companies arent crooked. I understand you wanting to stick up for the oil company you work, but please dont insult everybody heres intelligence. You can list all the high expenses you want, that the oil companies have to pay, but the bottmline is theres something wrong when mobil makes 10 billion profit {yes thats after all those so called expenses you lis} for the quarter. So please stop trying to make us feel sorry for the oil companies. They have been theives for years and they will always be thieves, until every last drop of oil is gone from the ground.
Also you have your facts wrong about refineries and the enviromentalists stopping new builds, thats pure oil company bullshittttt. True of the matter is, that oil companies dont want to invest in any more refineries, because the world is running out of oil at a faster pace then originally thought, so the oil companies dont want to spend the money on the new refineries, because they know they wont recoup their investment. Plain and simple oil industry is filled with the richest crooks in the world.
In all honesty, oil is a resource that every person needs, in every aspect of life and this resource should have never ever been controlled by private industry. This is one case where government should be in control of the oil in the world, that way these obscene profits could be taken away. Governments would then hire companies to manage the oil industry for them.
Remember resources like oil really belong to everybody in the world, not some fat ass rich oil tycoon. Thats where governments screwed up, they should have the control.
So please stop spreading the oil company bullshit on the board, because everybody here is not some dumb degenerate gambler.

Man I hope you never become king of the world.

The goverment cant even get there act straight on Hurricane Katrina. I still have a friend who is living in a tent since September because Fima has still yet to get there act together with there massive red tape, and you want that same goverment to have control over our energy? LMFAO. And what the hell does giving an opionion have to do with being a gambler.

The Oil companys do not control the price of oil. If the oil companies did control the price, it would have never went below 15 bucks a barrel like it did in the mid 90s when every oil company around was in debt up to there eye balls.

I am also in the oil industry and your comments are totally and completely off the mark. Choptalk had it right in his previous post about the cost of producing oil. Whatever, we could go on and on like this forever, but your statements regarding the gov't owning the oil industry are totally ludicrous and go against everything we value as Americans. Almost every country (except the U.S.) in the world that produces oil & gas has a gov't controlled energy industry and you can see how well that is working out in such lovely places as Nigerian, Venezuela, Russia, Mexico, etc. Please don't fall prey to our liberal media.

Sugar Cane is even cheaper and there is a larger supply, but the f*ing corn lobby won't let them use it to produce ethanol.

I have played sports where stats were really important in many ways and I also coached and I will give you the same advice I gave mysely as well as many players. To be truely successful do not spend lots of time patting yourself on the back when good and do not spend much time KICKING YOUR OWN ASS when poor!! Try to imagine having a clean slate as of today and make small strides dailey, then go back and see how much you have knocked off the bad number. It will only happen that way cuz regardless how well it goes when adding it in it still is not great. You are good, real good or people would drop you like a hot potato and they don't so you do not need a mulligan as you have support. Just drop trying to wake up to a even number and also if all the other players following you were better cappers than you, they would PLAY THEIR OWN PLAYS. Iplayed 4 plays last night along with Atlanta and Atlanta lost, but not your fault!! Best of Luck to all Players tonight!!!!!!!!!!
