Great impersonation. I don't miss him.

My financial gain is because of investments I made many many years ago with some royalties I have from some property I own up around Cushing, Tx. Exxon and a couple other oil companies were part of my investment plan along with a few other stocks. I have taken some hits over the years but in the long term it has been very profitable. Being invested in oil company stocks you have to take the good with the bad. I am quite proud of the work I have done in my investing.

I agree.

This is what you posted: There are soldiers losing their lives over Exxon exploiting this crisis. That reads as though Exxon is causing the soldier's deaths. As if the war is being run by Exxon. Is that what you mean? I think you meant to say Exxon is exploiting this crisis while soldiers are losing their lives. That would make a little more sense.

Soldiers are losing lives because of Exxon?

Correct

I also tithe. So what you are saying is it's okay to reap benefits just don't celebrate it. Gotcha BTW, not one of those charities or the church asked how I was able to give the money. Helping to spread good will with my investment monies. That's all.

I was answering your questions that you directed to me. Not concerned if you believe them or not. I am happy that I can contribute to those charities.

Not all but about 80%. 20% finances my poker. Not really concerned what you believe. The govt. believes me. At least the IRS does.

Wounded Warrior Project Veterans From War American Cancer Society Shriners Hospital Christian Care Center

The money made that is deposited I give to charity.

I give my profits to charity.

5-4 win for Houston. Astros have now won 5 straight and 10 of last 11. Have 1 1/2 game division lead. Go for the sweep tomorrow.

YES!!!!!! My bank account appreciates Exxon so much.

We don't need Springer. Need another arm or two. Astros are third in the AL in runs scored but are 12th in runs allowed. Pitching is what is needed.
