According to Southern Auto Corridor
Volkswagen will choose Limestone County, Ala. for its first U.S. plant in 20 years. The source is the same person who tipped us off about Kia picking West Point, Ga. for its first North American assembly plant and Hyundai choosing Montgomery, Ala. for its first plant.

Seems like I haven’t really written anything about my personal life in quite some time. I’ve been pretty busy, but here’s a brief laundry list of activities.
When Bush first ran for president in 2000, he criticized the Clinton administration for high fuel prices and said the president must “jawbone” oil producing nations and persuade them to increase production. At that time, oil was nearing $28 a barrel.
From Saudi Arabia Rebuffs Bush on Oil Output. Massive FAIL, Mr. President. Oil hit $127 a barrel today.

Last week, the Chattanoogan published an op-ed I wrote on ANWR Drilling. Read it at the Chattanoogan or here after the jump.

Another great Muxtape from The Style Press. This one features My Bloody Valentine, Sonic Youth, Echo & the Bunnymen and Jesus & Mary Chain. I’ve been listening all afternoon, stuck in high school nostalgia.
Bonus: Barry on Echo vs. Jesus & Mary Chain:
They always seemed what? They always seemed really great is what they always seemed. They picked up where your precious Echo left off, and you’re sitting around complaining about no more Echo albums. I can’t believe you don’t own this fucking record.
