Good distraction Pute.
About the debate, the spokesman will keep you abreast of things.
I stink. Shower time and fresh pair of undies. Was in there Sunday I believe.
anybody count steps? - no, not that kind.
i have 7 steps from the second floor to the landing, then 8 steps from the landing to the 1st floor.
in March 2017 i was called for jury duty, got up early to make myself look pretty (enough), and hurrying down the stairs (not counting them, then) and missed the bottom one - and jammed my heal up into my tibia and fractured the left rear malleolus - my first broken bone.
not realizing it was broken, i shaved, showered and made the jury pool call on time. damn did my leg hurt.
i was dismissed from duty (of course).
what was really funny was, it was an Alice's Restaurant case, that is, a littering case - in our river, not in a restaurant.
i couldn't get the song out of my mind all day. did a lot of walking on my broken leg that day, too.
now i always count the steps going down to the first floor. at age 76, i recommend it to everyone.

It's almost time for the evening transition, cookie, getting supper ready, clean up, 15 minutes of teeth maintenance and then find my way to a vertical position.
Tomorrow is a busy day.
Good evening to all.

Now I'm nice and clean from my very own shower with all my cool bathroom supplies and put on some Old Spice and I'm laying in bed listening to the thunder storm. I'm very thankful for my home.
I had to do something.....I love the attention but nature called.
Not the way I see it.

Not sure where you get your data from. And, for reference, the Saudi Riyal remains pegged to the USD.
Saudi's have been trading, and willing to trade oil in a basket of currencies for quite some time.
Eventually, of course, converting the bulk of it back into US Dollar related financial instruments.
There was no shock wave in the markets, which there should have been, if of great importance.
As to your predictions on the price of oil - you must have a crystal ball better then the rest.
The world's major players trade both currency & oil markets. And they've fluctuated normally.
I can only wonder how the Kingdom will continue to get rich with no one able to afford gas.
There never was a factual exclusive deal that Saudi's had to trade every drop of oil in US Dollars.
Given the choice between holding Yuan or Dollar (USD), that's an easy one. They like Euro too.
In January 2023, Saudi Arabia formally announced they would trade oil in other currencies also.
Brent and WTI are both future traded in US Dollar denominations. Oil has gone up slowly recently.
And the US Dollar has slowly risen too, and been stable. With no abnormal perceivable fluctuations.
We should see some panic and disparity if in fact the major players are concerned with this. Not.
The Saudi Kingdom is as greedy as ever, & wants to pull away from any perceived sole nation bias.
And, of course, there is the possible leverage that is attached to any future US - Saudi agreements.
The referenced pact ended on June 14, 2024. Markets don't lie. And they dd not noticeably change.
I am providing a link to an outside the US publication so that one won't perceive any overt bias here:
Did Saudi Arabia really end petrodollar deal? UBS economist clarifies
Reports of Saudi Arabia ending petrodollar deal sparked online discussions about the potential decline of the dollar as the world's reserve currency.www.indiatoday.in
Here is another with a little more in depth explanation as to what actually did, and is, transpiring, today:
US-Saudi Arabia security deal could seal future of petrodollar
The kingdom is finalising a defence treaty with the US, which is part of a broader package, reports saywww.thenationalnews.com
Here is a last link that will allow you to do a much deeper dive, if so interested, with numerous links:
No proof Saudi Arabia will stop using US dollar for oil
Is Saudi Arabia abandoning the U.S. dollar for its oil sales? A June 13 X post that purported to show "breaking news" clwww.politifact.com
You promote a fake AI computer program, promoting verifiably fake information, and peddle this BS bandwidth here. I would tell you that you are delusional about the implications of the expired Petrodollar Agreement., but I am certain that you already know. Nothing different than the kind of tripe coming from lowlife Alex Jones, or convict Steve Bannon's lies. Trying to gain fame, attention, money, and recognition, through deplorable Fearmongering..
Telling all of us about your son who went to medical school, and your son who has a black belt in Jujitsu, does not elevate you, nor remove you, or obviate you, from being a responsible individual, posting here on your own accord.
And, what does it matter? My grandfather was a medical doctor. And I have two siblings who went to medial school. And I went to law school. So what?
Whether you realize it, or not, you need to clean up your act. You portray the information you convey as honest and true. But it is not. You waste our valuable time. I won't expand nor respond any further on this. Markets don't lie.
