    So my solar covers half of my electric bill, about $0.06/kWh net. Since I get about 5 mi/kWh around town, I’m running close to $0.01/mile.

    Too bad I hadn’t heard about the “Golden Egg Goose” mutual fund.

    The cheapest I remember was 18 cents/ gal at a Fina in Trenton, MO. My car was a Saab 3 cyl two stroke that I put one qt of hd30 to 8 gals of gas. Or Saab sold their oil which mixed at 50:1 instead of 32:1. I carried quarts of Wolfs Head in the trunk. Today it’s $4.87 at Costco.

    We have a lot of pelicans that do the dramatic landing and slow motion launch from the lagoon opposite the house block ..... none of them appear to wear briefs, although, I can't say I've ever seen one without it's coat of feathers, so, maybe .....
