CNN.com - Prosecutors get some Limbaugh medical records - Jul 7, 2005: "In a statement, Black said he was confident that prosecutors 'will find nothing in these records to support a charge of doctor shopping, because there was no doctor shopping.' Limbaugh's attorney also said the prescription records would show that the radio host was only prescribed an average dose of a little more than eight hydrocodone pills a day over a seven-month period, 'which is not excessive and is in fact a lawful dose.' Hydrocodone is a potent painkiller that can become addictive. Black also said 92 percent of the pain medication was prescribed by two doctors treating Limbaugh for back pain, who both work in the same office. The rest were prescribed by a California surgeon who performed cochlear implant surgery to restore Limbaugh's hearing and a Florida doctor who followed up on the surgery, who also wrote prescriptions for vitamin pills and a medication to combat tinnitus, or ringing in the ears, he said. 'The bottom line is that these prescription records might tell a story, but it is not a story of doctor shopping,' Black said." See, I Told You So.

Chrysler Matches GM, Ford on Discount Plan

My Way Finance: "DETROIT, Jul 06, 2005 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- DaimlerChrysler AG's Chrysler Group began offering employee discounts to all consumers Wednesday, following the lead of General Motors Corp. and Ford Motor Co. Chrysler is also offering cash incentives on top of the lower prices." This was expected, I guess. I like to make predictions, but I admit I'm usually off timewise. My prediction is oil is way inflated today. That there is plenty of supply and we have a bubble on the price right now. I think by the end of summer, beginning of fall, the bubble will begin to burst. There will be a large drop in oil price, say like greater than 20% in a short period of time (like within a month). This will cause a huge up tick in stock prices. If war (or new war) breaks out, and I mean major war, then this will cause a huge slide and create that depression that is due. Of course, I'm hoping for the up tick, I don't want the depression.
