Dear speculators,

Shut the hell up with your $7/gal in 2 years BS. Word is, that your speculations have caused us the $4/gal to date. Please quit helping the fatcats of the oil companies get richer by merely setting the prices higher than they even dreamed of.

I am not totally convinced that this is not an economical global warfare on the US. They are deliberately crippling the US economy. Why do I think this, because this is what we did to Russia and won, we hit them economically.

I have always been a car nut, but I have reached the point where I would quit driving and use any new forms of transportation to stick it to the middle east and the oil tycoons. Sorry UAW.

Whew. I feel better.

    $35.00 for 1/4 of a tank. I used to fill my car up for $45 and it would last 2 weeks. Now it is over $75 to fill my car. It is crazy. So they make family size scooters????

    me + gas = not friends right now.

    reasons:

    1) i can never go home to see my family because it now costs me $30 for the drive (instead of the $10 it took 2 years ago)

    2) i had to buy a bike to get my butt around town these days (ps: great exercise and it actually is fun, but i sweat my booty off)


    grrr gas prices.
