Well, let's see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes. And Prince Charles started wearing all of Lady Di's clothes. I couldn't believe it...

The politically correct ebonics hiphop term is Sperm Donor Whales, the whalefare check cashers of Baby-Momma whales.

Assuming that this is a really honest question (hard to believe an adult can be that ignorant in 2008, with the internet, and all)...

Assuming that you mean imported oil in 2007 it was as follows:

Canada
Mexico
Saudi Arabia
Venezuela
Nigeria
Iraq...

Those 5 countries represented 75% of all oil imports.

After running warm water over its back, it is a good idea to check the glands at the base of the Cairn terrier’s tail.
There are two musk glands that can clog and become infected. Simply locate each gland and gently squeeze your index fingers together.
A yellowish fluid will be excreted and you can continue bathing your little friend.

The possessive of “its” doesn’t need an apostrophe. Only “it is” gets the apostrophe.

BINGO! That is the real comparison to be made. What is the breakout of sources of U.S. oil?

“Canada”

Whenever I hear some lazy person comment that we have to end our addiction to foreign oil, I always respond with, “you mean those terrorist sponsoring CANADIANS!?!?!?”

99% of folks are surprised to learn that Canada is our #1 supplier of foreign oil.

I think the question they actually want to ask is, "What port does most of the oil used by the USA come in at?"

I would think it would be New Orleans.

We had a cat that used to get infections in those glands. It was gross.

Somewhat important question.

Sarah Palin and McCain need to phrase every single question in the context of oil, as the most significant issue of the country for the next 30-40 yrs.
