Have you heard Palin's comments today that she just passed a 40 b pipeline to "get the natural gas to people that desperately need and want it".

Goodnight.

Hey, I agree with you about Joe Biden being "real as rain" from continued observation & other sources. However I messaged Haynesville last night about a discussion that should be in politics, so as much as I agree with your political expertise let's be careful about it.

I truly hope that you are right if it they come out on top. I wanted your opinion, because I am strongly convinced of conservative values. I do think Joe Biden was a good choice for him to make though. I respect your opinion, that is why I asked. I was surprised when you said that you were a democrat. I surely did not intend to add any sort of fuel to the fire for anyone to find fault. (But it seems that no good deed goes unpunished, the more you help, the more you are attacked).

I wanted insight from the other side. I just want to believe that we can end up with a LEADER, no matter what the party affiliation. Our country needs someone who will do what is right even when it is unpopular.

I believe that there is so much broken that government can't fix. I just hope that they will fix the things that they can. And I hope that the pendulum will swing and that society will fix some of the other woes.

I guess if they win, and you are right, I won't have to move to Canada. Maybe just Alaska. I gotta say, I like what Sarah Palin has to say. But saying and doing are vastly different things, I guess only time will tell.

Haynesville shale or not though, I strongly agree that we have got to stop exporting our wealth to buy oil from other countries. I think it is akin to using the rent money to pay for a crack addiction. As much as $4.00 a gallon of gas hurts, I hope that it is the pain that wakes our country up to new possibilities.

It is a shame you don't like Texans. No comment any further.

Texans football team, not Texans the citizens of the state.

Jim K, while the O folks are efficient, it is exactly that efficiency I'm scared of because it will be very efficient in enacting laws with an extreme liberal/socialist bias. O is one of the most liberal Senators there is, based on his voting record. Now granted, he hasn't been there very long but he's voted with his own party 99% of the time and is always liberal. I don't care about his color, his height, his wife, his kids, etc. I care about his ideas. I don't like them. He's an empty suit, but where there is substance, it goes against everything I believe in. I hate McCain, too, but I'll hold my nose and vote for him because O is a horrible alternative...as was the Hillary monstrosity.

Haven't seen you post in a while, JKW3, glad to hear from you. As you know, as far back as Spindletop, the business has been boom and bust. It'll likely stay that way. One good side effect of the reduced price of oil and gas is the eventual reduction in the associated costs and shortages which the higher prices led to to begin with. Because of the lower gas price, slowdows in drilling and leasing will inevitably occur. As you stated earlier, the slowdown will be somewhat less evident in the Haynesville because of the high average costs of the leases. However, much of the Haynesville is HBP and it is some of that acreage that may get put on the back burner till either higher prices or lower costs show up. Judging by the collapse of the stock prices of the steel companies, someone out there thinks that the supply of steel tubulars for wells and pipelines will someday outstrip the demand . If so, shortages will go away and prices will come down. If the reserve estimates for a section of Haynesville Shale in the fairway are even close to being accurate, it will all get drilled.......every section......eventually. If any of ther sections are missed, you and I need to drill it!
Looks like the rig got moved out of Section 16. Just starting the bend in section 9. Hope you're doing well.

Mr. Krow , Check with "H" about the ISP. That will show you that I am free and clear as I have been on your other accusations. When I told you I was done , that meant I was done. I will accept your apology when you have done this so you can get on with the next person that feels the need to confront you.If I need to say something to you it will be as it has in the past , as Snake Stewart. Thanks and have a good evening.
