@Ed - Thanks, I think you completely missed my point. The term "loosen up" comes to mind. I will let this rest and go back to my hole.

@Ed so it could be the busted pipe in Kalamazoo that leads to Canada, where the bulk of our gasoline is refined.

Seriously? Because it was all caps? Ok I'll try again. @Joe Hood - it's because Big Oil owns us all. Seriously - Let me use my first amendment rights, lord! Are we going to remove this one due to too many exclamation points? And you wonder why your visitors "hammer" you.

No the CEO's are planning a Christmas party in the southseas and someone has to foot the bill. It's not like we have anything else to with the little bit of money the goverment has left us.Between Govenment Gas companys and insurance all increasing their cost but freezing medicare and anyother payroll if you eat is now optional
