Shipments for the week ended August 15 were was up 27.5% year on year.Really? Gasoline for air conditioning? Low pump prices? See "crack cocaine and heroin" solution.

B Is For Biden
To save his legacy (whatever legacy that might be), President Obama needs an Obama-lite to follow him in the presidency. That "should have been" Hillary Clinton, had that worked out. Bill Clinton and Barack Obama went golfing this past weekend. I'm sure they both had the same subject in mind. It's looking more and more like Hillary won't be the one to insure Obama's legacy.
Today at my daughter's home I saw one of those little signs one buys at novelty shops: "Life is all about Plan B."
Joe Biden is Plan B.
Hyperbole? NPR is now picking up on the story, even if The New York Times is not.
