Black gold. Oil, that is. North Dakota tee.
What? We won't see any new Beverly Hillbillies, but I am forecasting a number of Phoenix Farmers.
I actually did live in western North Dakota for a summer during the last supposed oil boom, which turned out to be a bust. In the summer of 1982 when I was 14, I lived with my grandparents, worked at my Aunt and Uncle's drive-in restaurant, The Twist, and played baseball in Watford City. Stanley was one of the teams we played, so I've been there. I couldn't tell you the first detail about it though.
I'm just hoping that when it's all said and done, everybody remembers that you cannot serve God and money.
