Last Friday, I had a vision about a young black man being gunned down in the streets of Cincinnati. It turns out I was correct.... about three times.

If we have a few more of these weekends, we'll get right back on pace for a homicide record.

For my next prediction, the feds will pursue an increase in the federal gasoline tax!

Why?

An unprecedented cutback in driving is slashing the funds available to rebuild the nation's aging highway system and expand mass-transit options, underscoring the economic impact of high gasoline prices. The resulting financial strain is touching off a political battle over government priorities in a new era of expensive oil.

A report to be released Monday by the Transportation Department shows that over the past seven months, Americans have reduced their driving by more than 40 billion miles. Because of high gasoline prices, they drove 3.7% fewer miles in May than they did a year earlier, the report says, more than double the 1.8% drop-off seen in April.

I think I'm going to give up the accounting business and go into palm reading.
