AS YOU KNOW THE OLD MYSTIC STUDIED FOR 6 YEARS AT M.I.T. I LEARNED PROBLEM SOLVING BY FACTUAL ANALYSIS .
I DECIDED TO APPLY WHAT I LEARNED TO THE OIL CRISIS GRIPPING THE WORLD TODAY . I CAME TO THE FOLLOWING ANALYTICAL POINTS:
1. OIL IS THE LIFEBLOOD OF EVERY ECONOMY IN THE WORLD . A DISRUPTION OF THE OIL SUPPLY WILL WRECK THE ECONOMY WORLD - WIDE .
2. THE WORLD CONSUMES ALMOST 83 MILLION BARRELS OF OIL A DAY . THE USA USES ABOUT 31 % OF THE TOTAL USED .
3. CHINA & INDIA ARE INCREASING THEIR DEMAND FOR OIL .
4. THE LARGEST PRODUCER OF OIL IS SAUDI ARABIA WHICH PRODUCES 15 % OF THE WORLD SUPPLY .ABOUT 30 % OF WORLD PRODUCTION COMES FROM THE MIDDLE EAST .
THE MOST PRESSING PROBLEM IS A DECREASE IN PRODUCTION DOES NOT LEAD TO AN ACROSS THE LINE INCREASE IN PRICE . THE PRICE INCREASES GEOMETRICALLY.
THE USA HAS OIL RESERVES OF ABOUT A 17 DAY SUPPLY. SO WE HAVE ABOUT TWO WEEKS TO RUN IF THERE IS A DISASTER IN THE PRODUCTION FIELD .
ANY DISTURBANCE , POLITICAL OR OTHERWISE, CAUSES A MUCH GREATER DISRUPTION IN OUR ECONOMY .
EXPERTS PREDICT AN OIL PRICE SHOCK IN 2012 WHICH WILL MAKE THE SHOCKS OF 73, 79 , & 08 APPEAR MINUSCULE .
WE COULD ALL BE LIVING LIKE THE AMISH VERY SOON .
IN THE VERNACULAR OF AN MIT ANALYST , I MAKE THIS ESOTERIC STATEMENT ;
WE ARE IN DEEP DOO - DOO !!!!!
****
DID YOU NOTICE MEMPHIS, GERMANTOWN ,& COLLIERVILLE INCREASED THEIR PROPERTY TAX . GOVERNMENT CAN NEVER GET ENOUGH MONEY , THEY JUST SPEND & SPEND .
****
IT APPEARS TO BE ANOTHER LONG YEAR FOR TIGER FOOTBALL . SOME SAY THE TIGERS ONLY HAVE 3 WINNABLE GAMES . THE OTHER 9 ARE LONG SHOTS AT BEST .
I AM NOT SOLD ON LARRY PORTER . I KNOW HE WAS A GREAT RECRUITER AT LSU . BUT THAT IS LIKE GETTING A BUNCH OF REDNECKS TO GO TO THE PLAYBOY CLUB . NOT TOO HARD .
THE TIGERS PEED IN THE WATER BARREL WHEN THEY DID NOT HIRE LARRY LACEWELL OR KIPPY BROWN . MEMPHIS WASTED A LOT OF YEARS WITH RIP THE DIP & TOMMY" I'M THE BEST" WEST .
IF MEMPHIS COULD ONLY CONTROL THEIR BACKYARD THEY COULD BE A STRONG TEAM . CHECK HOW MANY SEC PLAYERS ARE FROM THE MEMPHIS AREA .
YOU CAN WIN WITH ANY OFFENSIVE OR DEFENSIVE SCHEME IF YOU HAVE THE PLAYERS . IT IS NOT HOW YOU LINE UP BUT WHO YOU LINE UP .
IT IS NOT THE X & O'S BUT THE JIMMY & THE JOES .

NOT THE WAY IT USED TO BE
****
FOR MANY A YEAR THERE WERE FOUR WAYS OF SOCIAL MOBILITY . THE FOUR WAYS TO ESCAPE GRINDING POVERTY WERE SPORTS, ENTERTAINMENT, SELLING DRUGS , & EDUCATION .
THE EDUCATION PATHWAY IS CLOSING FAST . BACK WHEN, A COLLEGE DEGREE GAVE YOU A SHOT AT JOB OPPORTUNITIES . NOT TODAY .
MOST GRADS TODAY FACE NO OPPORTUNITY & MASSIVE DEBT . THIS WIDENS THE GAP BETWEEN THE HAVES & THE HAVE NOTS .
WITH THE CLOSING OF ANOTHER DOOR ,THE RAGE OF THOSE TRAPPED ON THE BOTTOM WILL GROW & GROW . THERE HAS TO BE A WAY FOR A PERSON TO IMPROVE HIS LOT IN LIFE .
NO HOPE FOR THOSE ON THE BOTTOM WILL LEAD TO DOOM FOR US ALL .JUST LOOK AT THE TROUBLE IN OUR WORLD TODAY .
WHERE IS HUEY LONG WHEN WE NEED HIM ?
****
I MISS TIGER WOODS . FUNNY, I DID NOT LIKE TIGER . I PULLED HARD FOR TIGER TO GET BEAT . I WAS DELIGHTED WHEN TIGER CAME UP SHORT . WHY ? I DON'T KNOW .
IT IS NOT AS MUCH FUN WITHOUT TIGER TO KICK AROUND . I HOPE HE RETURNS SOON SO I CAN ROOT AGAINST HIM .
BUT UNTIL THEN I HAVE A NEW GUY TO CHEER FOR . THAT'S RIGHT - RORY MACILROY . RORY MAY BE AN ARROGANT LITTLE TURD , WE DON'T KNOW YET, BUT HE BRINGS NEW INTEREST TO THE GAME .
I TOLD MY FAVORITE NIECE ,SHE BETTER SEND RORY HER PICTURE . RORY MAKES MORE IN A WEEK THAN I DID IN OVER 30 YEARS ON THE JOB .
****
LEBRON JAMES IS IN TROUBLE AGAIN . LBJ NEEDS TO LEARN YOU CAN'T SAY CERTAIN THINGS EVEN IF THEY ARE TRUE .
LBJ DISSED THE FANS WHICH IS A MAJOR NO - NO . YOU CAN'T TELL FOLKS THAT THEIR LIFE WILL BE JUST AS MEANINGLESS TOMORROW AS IT IS TODAY . AND JAMES ' LIFE WILL BE JUST AS WONDERFUL ,LOSING THE CHAMPIONSHIP DOESN'T CHANGE THOSE FACTS .
KING JAMES, IT IS NOT SMART TO DISS THE FANS LIKE THAT . MAKES NO DIFFERENCE THAT IT IS TRUE . THOSE FANS ARE THE ONES PAYING THE BILLS .
IF THOSE FANS DECIDE THEY DON'T GIVE A DIDDLY DIP FLIP & QUIT BUYING TICKETS WHAT WILL YOU WAKE UP TO THEN LBJ ?

WHO IS IN CONTROL HERE
****
I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT THE ILLUSION OF CONTROL . IT SEEMS THIS IS A LIE WE TELL OURSELVES . THE MOST VITAL LIE.
WE NEED TO DENY REALITY & BELIEVE WE ARE IN CONTROL OF OUR LIVES . WE WANT TO THINK WE CALL THE SHOTS.
THE TRUTH IS WE CONTROL VERY LITTLE . WHEN THINGS ARE GOING WELL WE TEND TO THINK WE ARE RUNNING THINGS. IT ONLY TAKES A CRISIS TO SET THINGS RIGHT .
THERE ARE ALL TYPES OF CRISIS - HEALTH , FINANCIAL & FAMILY CRISIS TO NAME A FEW . ALL OF THESE SHOW US WHO IS REALLY IN CHARGE .
THAT WOULD BE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST. JESUS IS LORD OF ALL . MANY OF THE THINGS WE PRIZE WILL COUNT FOR NOTHING ON THAT GREAT DAY .
I SURE HOPE HE WILL FORGIVE ME FOR ALL THE WASTED YEARS .
****
THE DALLAS MAVERICKS BEAT THE MIAMI HATE , I MEAN HEAT . IT WAS GOOD TO SEE THE OLD GUYS WIN . A LOT OF HOPES WERE REALIZED & GHOSTS WERE EXPUNGED .
LEBRON JAMES HAS GONE FROM LOVED TO HATED FASTER THAN ANYONE I REMEMBER . I DON'T HATE LBJ , IN FACT I UNDERSTAND HIS PAIN . MAYBE KING JAMES WILL CASH IN NEXT YEAR .
A PERSON I HOLD IN HIGH REGARD SAYS THE HEAT WILL NEVER WIN . THAT THEY WILL IMPLODE AFTER THIS SETBACK .
****
HOW ABOUT HARRISON FRAZAR WINNING THE SAINT JUDE ! OLE HARRY HAD NOT WON IN 355 STARTS & ALMOST GAVE THIS ONE AWAY .
THE 39 YEAR OLD JUST KEPT PLUGGING . I WONDER HOW MUCH MONEY HE HAS MADE PLAYING GOLF . WONDER IF HE HAS EVER HAD A REAL JOB .
****
I AM TIRED OF STORIES ABOUT JOHN DALEY . EVERY TWO WEEKS WE READ ABOUT THE NEW JOHN DALEY .
TRUTH IS DALEY WASTED GREAT TALENT . HE IS NOT GOING TO GET IT BACK . LET JOHN FINISH IN THE TOP 10 BEFORE WE HEAR ANYMORE .

A GOOD BURGER JOINT IS HARD TO FIND
****
FIRST OF ALL ,LET ME SAY THANK YOU TO ALL WHO RESPONDED WITH THEIR FAVORITE BURGER JOINT . THERE WERE MANY OLD OAKHAVEN HAWKS WHO WROTE IN . THOSE BOYS & GIRLS KNOW THEIR BURGERS .
LET US BEGIN BY STATING WHAT A BURGER JOINT IS .
A BURGER JOINT IS THE SAME AS A BEER JOINT JUST A DIFFERENT POINT OF EMPHASIS. WHEN I SAY BEER JOINT YOU DON'T VISUALIZE A BUNCH OF MARKET ANALYSIS IN THOUSAND DOLLAR SUITS STANDING AROUND SIPPING BEER OUT OF A GLASS .
A BURGER JOINT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A HOLE IN THE WALL BUT MOST SEEM TO BE . THERE IS NOT MUCH FORMAL WEAR AT THE BURGER JOINT .
I WILL START BY NAMING MY TOP 5 BURGER JOINTS . THEN WILL DISCUSS THE ONES YOU NAMED .
MY PICKS ARE :
1. KINCADE'S - FORT WORTH ,TEXAS
USED TO BE A GROCERY STORE BUT THEY WERE SELLING FAR MORE BURGERS SO THEY SWITCHED OVER . GREAT PLACE WITH SEVERAL TYPES OF BURGERS.
2. FRED'S - FORT WORTH ,TEXAS
A REAL HONKY TONK WITH LIVE MUSIC ON THE COURTYARD LATE AT NIGHT . HAS BEEN REBUILT AFTER FIRE DESTROYED MOST OF THE PLACE . JALAPEÑOS HEAT UP THIS BURGER .
3. PHILLIPS GROCERY - HOLLY SPRINGS ,MISSISSIPPI
MANY OF YOU HAD THIS ON YOUR LIST . ANOTHER GROCERY STORE TURNED BURGER JOINT . PRETTY MUCH A DUMP BUT FANTASTIC BURGERS . ACROSS THE STREET FROM AN ABANDONED DEPOT .
4. BUSTER'S - MURFREESBORO, TENNESSEE
A HANG OUT FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS & BIKERS THE BUSTER BURGER IS WONDERFUL . JUST STAY CLEAR OF THE POOL TABLES & YOU WILL BE OKAY .
5. DEAN'S - MILAN ,TENNESSEE
A BEER JOINT THAT CONVERTED . THE PLACE IS A REAL DUMP . MAXIMUM SEATING IS LESS THAN 15 BUT THE BURGERS ARE SENSATIONAL . THE PRICE IS RIGHT ALSO .
HERE ARE SOME OF THE ONES YOU SENT IN :
1. ANN'S SNACK BAR - ATLANTA ,GEORGIA
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FROM A GIRL WHO KNOWS HER BURGERS .
2. SOUTH MEMPHIS MARKET - MEMPHIS ,TENNESSEE
IF YOU ARE ON FLORIDA STREET IN MEMPHO & WANT A BURGER ,THIS IS THE PLACE . FROM AN OHS HAWK .
3. BUDDY'S - DICKSON , TENNESSEE
COMES FROM AN OLD RED DEVIL WHO LOVES THIS PLACE . SAYS THERE IS ALWAYS A LINE .
4. IRIE'S ON THE SQUARE - OXFORD ,MISSISSIPPI
OWNED BY A FORMER FOOTBALL PLAYER . MAY HAVE BEEN THE SMARTEST TACKLE I COACHED . HIS BURGERS ARE MAKING A LOT OF NOISE IN REBEL LAND .
5.SODA STEVE'S - GORE OKLAHOMA
COMES FROM A BURGER CONNOISSEUR FROM LITTLEFIELD TEXAS , HIM & WAYLON JENNINGS . WHEN IN OKIE LAND TRY STEVE'S.
6.STINKERBELL'S - BARTLETT ,TENNESSEE
YES THIS IS THE NAME . SORT OF OFF THE BEATEN PATH BUT WORTH THE HUNT .
7. VELVET CREAME - HERNANDO , MISSISSIPPI
I WAS SHOCKED HOW MANY PEOPLE PRAISED VELVET CREAME . LAST ONE I HAD A YEAR OR SO AGO WAS GOOD BUT IT DIDN'T SET MY HEART ON FIRE .
8. MENSI'S - COLLIERVILLE TENNESSEE
STILL A FAVORITE FOR COLLIERVILLE FOLKS . SIMILAR TO VELVET CREAME .
9.TOOT & TELL IT - DYER , TENNESSEE
BEEN DOING BURGERS FOR ABOUT 50 YEARS . WHEN THE DYER EAGLES WERE FLYING PLAYERS ATE FREE AFTER THE GAME . RIGHT DR. WINE
10. HANDY HOUSE - MEDINA ,TENNESSEE
NOT MUCH OF A BURGER JOINT BUT A GOOD PLACE TO SIT ON THE HOOD OF YOUR CAR & SOCIALIZE . SPENT TOO MUCH OF MY YOUTH THERE .
BUTCHER SHOP , BUCKLEY'S & CHRISTIE'S WERE NAMED BUT I THINK THEY ARE CHAINS .
****
IN A FEW WEEKS WE WILL DO CATFISH PLACES . E- MAIL ME YOUR FAVORITES !!!!
