Ern

I fill up every thursday on payday reguardless of how much gas is in my tank. I do that out of habit and keeps my tank full so there not getting my money for gas at 3.59 a gallon here.

Gas boycotts make no sense. Sure in theory you may take money out of their pocket for that day but what about the money you're putting in their pocket the day before or the day after when everyone refills? You are just driving up the profits on a different day. Even if you choose a day to boycott they still end up with your money no matter what hence negating the purpose. I wonder how much of a surge in profit they'll have tomorrow or had yesterday from people who chose to boycott today. Also the gas companies losses figure is completely unrealistic IMAO. $2,163,302,190.00 my ass. There are far too many assumptions in that figure.

Nope. No point to it. No one really believed it would make any difference.

Nope. I have to drive the Ranger tonight, my wife has a job interview. I negelected it something fierce since the HHR came to town, and now I need gas to make it to work.
From my wife on this subject:
Why try that? It is just silly. Instead why don't you all boycottt one company for a month?

I may be a man, but I think she might have it right on this one. Don't tell her I said that!

How about boycotting the Democrats .... they are they ones that said they would make a difference and fix this problem when they got control...

GDZHHR

Let's not go there again.....if anyone thinks that any political party will be able to do anything about this, they are naive. We may as well blame it on the communists.

JimZ_HHR

Well they could start an Investigation, like they promised before the elections.... who's doin the investigating? the Scooby Doo gang?

Thylacine

Maybe they should Federalize the Fuel Industry, then we wouldn't have any problems.......







Gawd! I can't say that with a straight face.

Yeah...I have this recurring nightmare in which I hear a knock at the door,answer it,and a suit is standing there who says "I'm from the government and I'm here to help you". Man...I need therapy.
