We need a replicator. "Coffee, hot." "16oz. Sirloin, medium well." "Hot fudge brownie, smothered with hot fudge, vanilla ice cream and ready whip." "Blonde, long hair, 5'8, 110lbs., 40D-28-36."

We could replicate anything. Solve all our problems. We don't have to worry about the cows getting revenge by spiking their milk with nicotine. That's why we drink it, we're hooked.

um ok how the hell did we get to this from gas prices?...lol but its true Tom things are changing from human encroachment on wildlife...the way it happens is this....the older people who worked and toiled on that property for years and years who had it passed to them from their fathers fathers fathers passed away, the kids got the property....they have no intrest in farming, they have a life, a college education, and a long life ahead of them.....well a developer comes along with say $6 million and says i want this property....the kids say sure take it ill never be able to use 40 acres of farmland. BOOM the property is gone, the livestock or produce that was raised on that great land is now gone for ever, lost to someones new ritzy home.....all this in the name of civilization....pretty sad.....if the fathers of the past seen this country in the form its in now they would vomit. God bless America indeed

Well actually thank goodness, my trucks mileage went up a tad since I dumped the Taylor wires and put on good ol' OEM motorcrafts. Have you ever placed a motorcraft wire next to any other high performance wire? They are actually a better wire. Way more beafy than a Taylor with twice the silicone on the boots. Plus, they "Click" on to the coil pack, whereas after market ones don't, and they come with pre applied conductor grease on the inside of the boots. Motorcraft plug wires are the best on the market as far as i'm concerned and i'll never go after market on those again.
MSD, Taylor, Moroso...they're all junk compare to good ol' Motorcraft.

All beat here.. $2.29 87, $2.39 89, $2.49 91. Here in wonderful Northern Cali where they stick it to you for everything. Feel lucky if you're paying under $2.00. Havn't seen that in a loong time and don't expect to ever see it again, unless I move to another state.

For sure joe. I remember when it plunged to like 99 cents a few weeks after 9/11. That was pretty messed up considering we were about to crash the stock market. George Bush is a rejected ram, I hope he gets beat by Kerry!!

During the sub-dollar days, I remember one week where I saw gas for 69¢ gallon then went up to 79¢ a gallon. This was back in the mid-nineties. Back where I didn't have a "six pack" but I wasn't carrying a "pony keg".

Gas Prices

There are a couple of ways to solve gas price issues. The first, We are already in Iraq, The muslem community already hates our guts, take advantage of this. Pillage Iraq of it's oil reserves and ship it over here. I think this country would be a better place under my rule, as soon as that prisioner treatment issue came up I would have taken all iraqi POW's and shipped them to turkey, told the turkish government that they all belonged to the fedayeen saddam and they were withholding information. No longer would we be the ones abusing prisioners. Anyway, that gag with the troops playing ac/dc over loud speakers to enrage the enemy, I wouldn't ever start there, whip out the cannibal corpse, dying fetus, and soddom records. This stuff even enrages americans just imagine what it would do to an Iraqi. Anyway I haven't bought gas in a week but I think it was 1.91 Milk, well I have to admit, I don't drink milk. If you want to pay the shipping costs, I do live up in cow-Hampshire, I can fedex a cow to ya.
