UGLY son of a bitch, isn’t he…?
They say a picture is worth a thousand words and I think this picture says a mouthful — and not in a good way. Madge — you are so funny, enlightening, hillarious, intelligent, creative, and yes very disturbing. I’m a lesbian trapped in a gay man’s body! I adore you! Keep on keepin’ on!
These are all-time record figures for a US company, ever. Ever! This is not because they are running more efficiently or that they have produced a new product. While demand continues to grow for oil, it certainly has not grown 75% in the past quarter alone. Yet Exxon’s profits grew at that rate, 75%. $9.92 billion, up from $5.68 billion. Companies do not increase their profits in one quarter by several billion dollars unless they are screwing somebody.
His face looks like it’s going to slide off…
What a loser…
