Isn't Arizona run by the Mafia? Instead of beating you up in the alley their beating you at the gas pump.  2funny The gas used to be cheaper in my area until Cincinnati built their new Stadiums. That when our gas became the same price as their's so the people in Cincinnati wouldn't come over here to get gas. Pisses me off we got to pay for a Stadium for those rich F#@&ers. Do you know that when the stadium doesn't sell out your taxes buy those empty seats? Thats why Los Angeles got rid of the NFL teams.
Then you should get free tickets?  evil6

Milk UK , around  $4.50 usd , for 1/2  American gallon ,

Petrol UK  ( regular)  $5.60  for  a US gallon ,  down now from  $ 8.20 usd at the high peak
but it wont last at that cheap price , Opec has cut oil production again , as there is lack of demand
worldwide ,


It does seem kind of weird, I do not hear of any fuel shortages when the dinosaur S#!t won't sell.  2funny 2funny

Here is some good info.

 They say Walmart quit, but I do not trust Walmart policies anymore. Too much politics anymore.

Here is a real good link.

$2.69 here in San Diego, CA.  It was rumored that a station out near Brawley was selling it for $1.19 a gallon yesterday..  I do not drink milk either.  It looks like something unnatural.  What good food is gonna spoil in just 3 days?  Give me soy milk or rice watter.

It will probably go back up after Christmas. After you spend the saved gas money on presents to save the Department Stores that are in trouble. If one don't F#@& ya the other will. wink

60-80$ a week, that's for my food. I don't drive and I'm proud of that fact. Still, if I were to drive, I'd still find a few dollars a gallon cheap for something that took a few million years to form from dead cells.

Hmmm....nah, its a comodity like any other. Trees sometimes take hundreds of years too. Heck some things there are no more. Like oxygen or water. So water should really be high priced. The price of anything is what people are willing to pay.  oh so nerdly!

My bet is that people are willing to pay 3-5 times what they are paying right now, only they will buy less. I know that in most of Europe gas prices are way higher than even what we see now in North America, although I couldn't give you a number, and they still use their cars, but not unless they need to (or are very rich).

You must not change one thing, one pebble, one grain of sand, until you know what good or evil will follow on that act. The World is in balance, in equilibrium.  It is most Perilous. It must follow Knowledge and serve need. To Light a Candle is to cast a Shadow.
