If ONLY regular unleaded STILL cost that much!
It's 12:30am, september 1st. I just drove by the Exxon down the road. The parking lot was still packed with a line of cars extending onto the side street. Vehicles all lined up trying to get one more tank for under $3/gallon. Right across the street another gas station had plastic bags wrapped around their pump handles. Down the road a mile or 2....same thing.....Are they emtpy? Or are they saving what's left for tomorrow and the labor day weekend? When they begin to gouge their prices. Ops, I mean when the market forces them to raise their prices. Gotta love economics!
I've said many times it is a shame our vehicles don't run on milk. Before too long milk will be cheaper by the gallon. Unless it is already....it could be...by now...or.....right NOW....prices change as fast as the stock market ticker on my aol instant messenger.


In other news: The establishment that hosts tuesday night trivia has implemented a new ritual. Each week the winning teams will have their picture taken and members' names recorded to be featured in the Commercial Appeal newspaper. Hoorah! *groan* With a false appearance of glee and cooperativeness Evil Petting Zoo agreed. Next time...we will not use our true names. Somtimes change can make one feel uneasy. Perhaps it will be harmless. Then again it could be a step in the wrong direction.
When it comes to trivia I consider myself, as well as my teammates, rooted in tradition, anonymity, and complete domination of our trivial peers.

that's enough for now. I'm going to bed to dream about the good ole days when I could buy gas for 75 cents/gallon in 1998.

Short and to the point as I am running late for trivia and my dinner.


Late Night Driver will be affected by this news more than anyone else.


I found out my childhood and almost lifelong barber back home in Paris passed away about a week ago. Best barber I ever had!

This really really really really really REALLY pisses me off.
Hostile? Demeaning? Abusive? What has happend to this country? Fear. Fear of poor public image. Fear of legal action. Fear of being seen as a racist? The NCAA should reconsider this consideration. If they go through with this, the Washington Redskins will have to find a neutral, nonoffensive name and mascot.......how about the Washington...ummm.....Monuments?
