The next round of mega-mergers in the oil patch kicks off, with ChevronTexaco announcing it is acquiring Unocal.

Sorry, but I had to format $$$MONEY$$$ correctly.
Oh, and it should be $$$$MONEY$$$$$, not $$$MONEY$$$.

And I thought you were going to say it was something that nobody has since the gas prices have gone up.

Some folks say it is the root of all evil. MMFools (those who participate in Make Money Fast scams) say it is the stuff you will make lots and lots of, with little or no effort. Normally via selling "reports" or "mailing lists" via pyramid schemes. It is an inside joke for those of us who are fans of the Make Money Fast Hall of Humiliation.

The Bible says that the LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all evil. This has been misconstrued as "money is the root of all evil"

OK, technically you are correct. Of course, in that case maybe $$$$MONEY$$$$$ can be expressed as "the love of money" to distinguish it from just plain money.

$$$$GREED$$$$$
