Rats. It's a shame this isn't just an April Fool's joke that went off 50 minutes too early. I hate driving with gas as it is. Looks like I'll be purchasing a more gas effective vehicle soon.

Well, I counted up OPEC's production per day for 2000 and came up with 27,700,000 barrels, so that's about right for 4%, so...

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

Hey they are in the business to make money, and like it was posted before, profit is down.

This is a loose win situation for a lot of companies here in the US. They may have to pay more for transpertation costs, but they will get a tax break and hopefully funding to develop economical / environmentally friendly fuels.

For people like me, who have little extra $ at the end of the month, this is just going to suck.

"Due to fiscle cut backs, the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off."

Today is a very sad day for me. Not to do with gas prices or anything, it is simply a reminder in a long list of reminders of how horribly my life has gone wrong.

Time to play a game..... I am thinking Tribes or SimCity 4. Well it'll have to be simcity because on 26.6 dial up Tribes won't run. God I am so depressed.

I WANT BROADBAND!

Hey, join the army. You'll get paid to work out and play soldier, and maybe even to kick some butt. There is nothing like the army. It's getting paid to do the things that we boys do for free anyway.
