Of Course There's Oil!

Well folks what's up with this doc umented disaster? Seems Uncle Sam decided to stir the pot biffing ol' Iran a good one right in their nuclear whatsits. Naturally that sends the price of black gold sky high! Like I always say 'This looks like a job for... a bigger carrot!' And maybe a less trigger happy government eh?

Hormuz Hijinks!

So this Strait of Hormuz thingy? Apparently it's a big deal. Like 20% of the world's oil swims through there daily. And now Iran's threatenin' to slam the door shut! Can you imagine the gas prices then? I'd have to hitchhike EVERYWHERE! 'Of course you realize this means war!'... on my wallet that is.

China's Carrot Stake

Marco Rubio (whoever THAT is) is hollering at China to get Iran to play nice. Seems China's slurping up Persian Gulf oil like I slurp up carrot juice! I tell ya everyone's got their carrot to chase in this mess. And speaking of carrots I'm fresh out! I gotta remember to pick some up at the store. You know the one where that Sam Sheepdog always watches me like a hawk?

Libya Deja Vu?

Now they're comparing this whole shebang to what happened in Libya with that Gaddafi fella. Seems messin' with dictators can really mess with the oil supply. Who knew? It's like that time I tried to bake a carrot cake and ended up with a carrot explosion! 'What a maroon!'

Saudi Arabia's Sideline Shenanigans

Even Saudi Arabia's got their ears twitching. They're all buddy buddy with the U.S. but they're playing it cool. Remember when their oil fields got bopped a few years back? They're probably thinking 'Ehhh been there done that got the t shirt... and the higher gas prices!' But I'm starting to think that maybe they didn't.

The Energy Agency's Emergency Stash

Good news folks! The International Energy Agency's got a whopping 1.2 billion barrels of oil on standby. That's enough to keep my carrot juicer running for oh about a millennium! So don't panic just yet. But maybe top off your tanks just in case. After all 'You never know do ya?' That's all folks! Now if you'll excuse me I've got a hankering for some carrot sticks.
