The accusations flying back and forth between Roman Senators are mildly nauseating. I just read from a RepubliCon apologist that Comey deserved to be fired. Maybe, six months ago. It wasn't the firing of the FBI Director that was the issue, it was the timing, coming after Monday's revelation that there may have been a botched cover-up. Not to mention the fact that he found out about his own resignation on CNN. It could have been worse - it could have been on Twitter. That excuse for the abrupt firing belongs at the bottom of a Cracker Jack box. <br /><br />The real problem for Circus Clownius is that his own party wants him gone now, because he failed to deliver on any of the tax cut goodies he promised financial markets:<br /><br />"Comey's firing endangers tax cut" <br /><br />Meanwhile, we learned this morning that U.S. oil inventories fell "more than expected". No one knows what that actually means since this is the seasonal drawdown period. What we do know is that both inventories and crude production are higher than they were this time last year.

It breeds inside trees; pregnant females drill into trunks to create networks of tunnels where they lay their eggs. The beetles also carry a fungus called Fusarium; it infects the tunnels, and when the eggs hatch, the borer larvae eat the fungus.<br />Unfortunately Fusarium also disrupts the trees’ ability to transport nutrients and water. Holes where the beetle bored into the tree get infected and form oily lesions. Sometimes sugars from the tree’s sap accumulate in a ring around the hole—that’s called a “sugar volcano.” The tree dies, and the wee baby beetles fly off to continue the circle of disgusting life.
