    Yeah those two never venture out of the room. That pic looks like it might be from the late 80's, perhaps Merrill clogs were more common then?

    Didn’t get the price they’d hoped for. Probably more action soon:

    Saudi Aramco is growing less optimistic that there will be a rapid recovery in oil production from the weekend’s attack and now faces weeks or months before the majority of output is restored at the giant Abqaiq processing plant.

    All eyes are on how fast the kingdom can recover from the devastating strike, which knocked out half its production, or roughly 5% of global supply, and triggered a record surge in oil prices. Initially, it was said that significant volumes of crude could begin to flow again within days. However, Saudi Arabian officials told a senior foreign diplomat they face a “severe” disruption measured in weeks and months.

    Not sure where KQ is today so I googled a control room at Abqaiq. Looks pleasant.

    No mention if the operators are wearing slippers, or not.

    You should have those eyes checked.

    Or the guy on the left in man-slippers has navy blue skin.

    Could be either, but as a wearer of loafers/Mocs and no socks as often as I can, I’m going to say in my expert opinion that homeboy is rocking something awful there on his feet. With socks.

    A man wearing shoes without socks is an abomination unless they're climbing shoes. I think I just threw up in my mouth.

    He really likes gladiator movies though.

    Those are likely Pakistani expats. Another google search on Pakistani footwear(for chrissake KQ I'm getting tired of this, WW3 is about to start, and nobody cares about the Walla Walla Cherry Festival) comes up with something like this as a possibility. I'm not a fan.

    This is consistent with your views on shorts.

    Anyone who wears socks with shoes during the summer either is a card carrying AARP member or is wearing a cruise ship lanyard around their neck.

    So it seems they may have been cruise missle and were launched from Iraq.

    I predict 20 more yrs of misery for Iraq and the return of Isis while SA and Iran fight.

    If you add shorts to the mix do you go full projectile vomiting?

    Dow Jones futures rose modestly late Monday, along with S&P 500 futures and Nasdaq futures. The stock market rally showed resilience given skyrocketing crude oil prices and a General Motors (GM) strike. Apple stock tried to get back above a buy point as battered growth stocks moved higher.

    A western backed country going to war with Russian backed forces someplace across the globe? Have I seen this one? How did it end? Proxy wars are the coolest.
