Gas prices are interesting around here, one station will be 2.50, while the next will be 2.80, there's no rhyme or reason, at least not to me.

Still $3.26 here, but 45 minutes to the west it's $2.89 for Marathon.

Oh Honey, I always said I loved you, can I have a drive of your Sebring , Please . well OK, pretty please then , 

a USD gallon has now reached the all time low of only $7.52  in the UK ,,

Ooops2 cars called a Sebring ,  only 10 years old , ? that would be nearly new to me ,
Purple !!!!!! , I guess it takes all kinds  , still least it ain't pink ,

Purple ( woad )is the traditional Brit war paint  , nothing else was worn, (quote :  and like all the warriors of the tribe she marched in battle naked but for the purple woad they all painted their bodies with.)......Hell, if your going to have a battle, best enjoy it on the way IMHO
   
"Whats the use of wearing braces
vests and pants and boots with laces
spats or hats you buy in places
down on brompton road

Whats the use of shirts of cotton
studs that always get forgotten
these affairs are simply rotten
better far is woad

Woad's the stuff to show them
woad to scare your foemen
boil it to, a brill-iant hue
and rub it on your back and your ab-do-men

Ancient briton never hit on
anything as good as woad to fit on
neck or knees or where you sit on
tailors you be blowed

Romans came across the channel
all dressed up in tin and flannel
half a pint of woad per man'll
dress us more than these

Saxons you can waste your stitches
building beds for bugs in britches
we have woad to clothe us which is
not a nest for fleas

Romans keep your armor
saxons your pyjama
hairy coats were meant for goats
gorillas, yaks, retriever dogs and llama

Tramp up snowdon with your woad on
never mind if we get rained or snowed on
never want a button sewed on
go it, ancient  ancient Britons
