Good morning.

Not much company news this morning but i'm blooging early since i'm working at my regular job this morning. Oil overnight hit 68 bucks before easing back...still higher at the moment. Nat gas is down a fraction after another run-up over 10 bucks late yesterday.

Of course it was a matter of time before somebody came around to the brilliant idea of price controls. They did not live in the 70s.

Katrina is heading for South Florida and then the Eastern Gulf of Mexico.

More later.
