Anyone use Costco? How do they stack up price-wise?
Never found more than $20/tire variation from shopping around multiple reputable shops.
They all buy from the same warehouse(s).

Wtf happened to all of the money that came in from the Super Bowl?
A lot went to sate taxes and fq fees (hotel fees, convention center fees, etc...) that fund the state budget.
Shocking, but the boom you hear about going into the economy isn't exactly going to locals. Big time spenders and execs bring in national caterers and companies to do a lot of the events.

Ah, my fault. I thought it was clear that the reason I called it crap crude was because of the quality.

Why are they police given bonuses on top of their lavish pensions?
Retention bonuses. They were given a bonus in 2022 and then one now if they stay around.
Seems to have stopped the hemorrhage but not boosted the ranks at this point.

Is the city saying we owe 800-1,200 of these bonuses for officers employed 10/31/22 through 10/31/25?
910 commissioned officers. The ranks promised bonuses may be outside of commissioned officers.
No official number exists on what is owed.

Being able to process high sulfur and high residual doesn't mean the crude is better quality.
It's crap and priced accordingly. Your low value product content is much higher.

In short anyone who says its bad crude oil doesn't know anything about refining and refined products
If it isn't shite crude why don't they charge a lot more for it? Does Venezuela just like giving away high quality crude for the cheapest price possible?

Probably worth more as scrap and a terminal than what they Motiva was allegedly going to pay. If there was even an offer.
The Saudis toured and put offers on every refinery if you ask the right people.

Can refineries handle both the heavy crude and light crude or is it one or the other?
Some can. It's all about what they are designed for and what crude they want to position for.
It isn't exactly what type (heavy/light) but how much of each.

that's where the Venezuelan crude used to go (right off their shore) but now it was mostly shut down and not operating
I may be mistaken but there was a recent push to bring that back online. The feedback from someone doing work was that it was a shitshow and not likely to ever happen.
