Black Gold
Back in ’93, I remember my secondary 5 economics teacher asking the class who knew what is “black gold”… Somebody said “oil”… always found that intriguing. Was that related to Nixon deal with Saudi Arabia to secure “petro-dollar” backing in light of killing the remaining of the gold standard? Anyways… here is another commodity which is shaping up pretty bullishly!
“Texas Tea.”
Oh my! Not gonna drink that for sure!
Patrick this was a popular TV show in the U.S. from 1962-1971. I wasn’t born until 1971 but this show lived on in syndication and is probably still on some network somewhere right now. I always got a kick out of the Beverly Hillbillies. Here is the opening of the show with all the above references to oil:

Saw every episode when I was a kid. I’m brain damaged now. It was pretty funny though. I loved Granny.
