Wow, almost 100 Mil for a pint of gas. That's impressive. I may have to empty my lawnmower and start an auction.

Harry - WTF were you doing shopping for gas on ebay?

Q: Is this Middle Eastern gas? I only use decomposed American dinosaurs. They have a more savory aroma.
A: I can't be sure. It hasn't tried to blow itself up yet, so I'd say there's a pretty good chance it's not from the mid east.

Now this guy has a sense of humor. Kudos to him!

You guys should have seen the idiots all over Atlanta lining up at Gas pumps last week--some stations ran out of gas, of course, because everyone started hoarding it like the apocalypse was coming the next day. Prices went up to almost $5.00 a gallon some places to take advantage of the morons thinking that a one day lapse in Gas supplies would cause a 2-3 week or more shortage.

Down the street from me, crackheads were filling up gallon cans and trying to sell them on the street, like scalping tickets or something. Imagine how all those renobs felt when Friday, Gas prices went back down to a more reasonable level [Still about $3.00/gal for regular though] and supplies restabilized. Really gives an insight to how foolish so much of our public is about supply and demand..
