The king of Saudi Arabia has died. I wonder what this will do to oil prices. He was pushing them lower. I guess time will tell how the new king, his half brother, will rule in his place.

The world is a better place now that he's not in it.

Maybe and maybe not. Maybe his successor is a lot worse.

I completely agree. We have to wait to see how this plays out. It could be a lot worse. Hopefully it turns out for the best. But he wasn't the worst Middle East dictator, that's for sure.

Sorry Arabia take out the trash.
Suggestion for a national coffin?

Lids at half mast.

Rest in Camel dung, dirt bag.

I hope so. His subjects deserve it.

I read somewhere that Prince Salman, the new king, may have dementia. Should be interesting.
