<sarcasm>
How I'm I to get to work?
</sarcasm>
And how am I going to make my.................................oh, yes.......................I remember now, napthalene and palm oil............. :D
Bike! :D That's what I do in the summer time from April until Oct/Nov. Save myself about $50CDN/month on public transit. If I was buying gas, I'd save even more. And don't give me no crap about lots of cars or long distances. I bike about 30KM round trip (15-20 miles) with uphills.
I just paid $2.09 a gallon for gas! It went up .30 in only 2 days. What do they need another castle? Good thing I have an economy car to drive to work.
cheers
Those gas prices are a figment of your imagination. We went to war with Iraq for the oil, remember?? :p
Meanwhile, I'd like to help out on your boycott, but my 358cc, Holly 4-barrel, 528 pony power will be passing everything but the gas station... Why? Because I love the rumble and roar from the cheapest dual exhaust money can buy, and who needs catalytic converters anyway?
On second thought, it sounds like a party...what'll I wear? Is this a "wear-your-frillies" type of event, or is it strictly bluejeans and t-shirt? Am I required to BMOB? It's such short notice...
Well, in my country the gallon is at $100......did i forget to mention the currency? pesos :) each peso is worth $0.05. 0.05 x 100.00 = $5/gallon
You shouldnt have posted the sign $ in front of 100..... and then say did i forget to mention the curreny....Quote:

$ = dollars.;)
I'll join in. I don't plan to buy gas until I've paid the State of Florida another $12,000.
Damn judge.
EDIT: It wasn't a DUI. I'm just a bad driver.
Why drive when you can ride with the freaks on public transportation?
Hey! I wardrive on public transportation. Don't knock it till ya tried it.
lol groovicius good point.
We went to war for the oil, so the gas prices can't be this hight.
I would love to help you out and all, but my 360's thats in my dodge truck has to eat something.
To hell with hybrids, drive big trucks!!!!!
lol

You kiddin' me? I'm the biggest CTA whore on the North Side....
You should see my train and bus pass... It looks like its been through the blender. Im on the train at least a 4-5 hours a week, minimum.
I especially love the bucket drummers under the "L" stop.
I really love this whole theory that if we were all to not buy gas today that it would cost the oil companys something crazy like 4 billion dollars all put together but what we seem to not understand is if we boycott gas for a day and they lose billions wouldn't the price go up to counteract the loss of money they just faced. I mean dont call me debbie downer :) but I dont know how this would really work, its not like, at least not in the us, boycott for more than a week, everyone commutes and unless your in a big city there is no good public transport.... just my 2 cents
I only gas up once every week and a half (usually) so I think I can skip a day.
I'm probably taking a train up to Boston this summer. I plan to turn the ride into a massive wardriving run. (Fla. to Mass.) I estimate about 8,000 networks along the train route. Especially with a cantenna pointed out the window.
And then, I hit the subway.
If I find anything tasty, I'll have the GPS.
Again I want to thank all who read and answered this thread it meant alot to me. I belong to another forum for hondas called www.hstuners.com and I thought that i would got a better response than I did, but I had two people say who cares!!. Go figure its car forum so blahhh. I know where truely mature people are, Right here... :bigsmile:
Hmmm, I think I am going to bike it for the next month and see if I can pull it off. As far as this original post, I swear I have been sent the same chain mail by 10 individuals. I hate that shist, it drives me nuts.
maybe im wrong but didn't the federal and state governments slap boo-coo taxs on gas to "regulate" the gas gonsumption...so regulate it down.
BTW there is no boycott planned its a chain letter "for this to work you have to mail it to everyone you know"
i hear that. tomorrow im going to print each one out, go to the gas station buy some gas soak them all in it and burn them...yeah thats itQuote:

Maybe if the gas prices go up, those retards that have a 6-liter 400HP SUV and only use it to go to the store one block away will buy smaller cars :D
Gas in Belgium is over $8 a gallon, btw, so it's not that bad...
Hey... who you calling a retard? I can go further than the corner store if I wanted to... I just choose not to. :DQuote:

I love them big ass cars.
I'll always drive one.
Remember buy a SUV!!!!
lol
Screw cars... Just ride the school bus! :p
I hope the prices go down before I start driving and have to buy gas.
It's getting pretty expensive up here in Washington. I think the average price is around $2.30...
mjk
I pay $1.86 per gallon of gas.
On average, it costs me $42 to fill my V8 up
Not cheap, but I'm not complaining.
It's a win/win situation for the gas companies either way you look at it...if you don't buy gas on one day, you're just going to have to another day...so they have a slump day, and then the next couple of days they make up for it because all the people who didn't buy gas Wednesday have to buy it at some point.
And it costs me on average $25 to fill up my little 4 cylinder car. And yes, I'm complaining. I have no option but to drive, I live out in the country, there is no public transportation, and I'm not going to make my husband ride a bike to work, work his a** off outside in the heat, and then ride a bike home, and my son is just too little to ride his bike anywhere alone. Plus all the places he goes are like 12 miles one way. We're really over a barrel, pardon the pun.
$1.86 is cheap! Its $2.35 here in San Diego. $50 does not even fill the tank of my F-150 (V8) anymore... :(Quote:

I drive an SUV ($50.00 to fill the tank / 250 miles to the tank). Also, if everyone was to not buy gas for (1 DAY) the gas stations would have a huge drop in revenue for (1 DAY) the next day they will have (RECORD SALES)... Think about it...
And by the way this is not a spamming chain letter for those of you who disagree with it dont answer it, its that simple. I got an e-mail from a friend of mine telling me of it a week before it was supposed be done, So according to wanting to help in anyway I can I answered the call. For those of you who think you can't make a difference(and don't like to see threads like this) Then become a moderator and delete them when you feel its right!!!!
and ps. I drive a honda and I'll be LMAO when gas hits 3.00 or more....GO SUV'S...GO SUV'S :D
