    I say we're affected by both, and we can bitch about what we want. I think we're not just griping about gas prices, but if you notice in other threads, we're worried about people, as well.

    the guy who does the Foamy the Squirrell cartoons did a special one lately about how people are complaining about gas and not helping the people stuck on their roofs, and how the reporters are just saying the same thing over and over, and trying to boost ratings instead of helping people. i agree, they're still racking up the death count, and they're probably not going to tell us the real number. a lot of new orleans is going to have to be leveled and re-built.

    I guess not having my license may just be payin off right now.

    2.99 up here in the north woods.

    I've been riding the shit out of my scooter, and I've been laughing at the yuppy bitches rolling their Canyoneros with the bling-bling tires. I just know their getting nickeld & dimed to death. Ha Ha Ha

    I sold my Ninety-eight last year for a pretty okay price and now I don't think I'd be able to give it away. It was like the canyonaro '1mpg on the highway and 0 in the city'.

    it was $2.99 but prolly went up over night.

    i can bitch about gas prices because it dips into my food money. i have 6 kids to feed and we don't drive to many places. it should not take close to $100 bucks to fill the gas tank. this crap sucks.

    When I need 12 gallons of wine to keep my job I will complain about the cost of wine.

    While I do agree that when the guy who drives the 8 mile a gallon truck to work my sympathy goes right out the window the people who make thier livings off of cars really do suffer right now. Imagine being in pizza delivery or a cab driver.

    So I have to tell you guys what happened to me yesterday. I wanted to take my motorcycle licence test so I did a mapquest and shit, I thought I knew the directions pretty well. The city had closed the DVM in the city so I needed to drive way the fuck out in the burbs to get to the nearest DMV that administers motorcycle licence tests. So I set out on my trip, I'm having fun and practicing as I go along. Well, things take a downward turn when I take a wrong turn and I end up on a highway on-ramp with a load of traffic behind me. So as I'm trying to get up to highway speed, I see an 18 wheeler coming up real fast to my left. Maybe it's just me but going 60mph on a scooter with 10in wheels next to an 18 wheeler is a little scary. I exited the next chance I got and took out my map to see how lost I was and to settle down. I finally make it to the DMV 15 minutes late for the test. I was so pissed off about it too. So I jet, and shortly after leaving the DMV I end up riding next to this Harley guy. It was cool, he had one lane and I had the other. He was about half a car length in front of me. I was going the speed limit (40), but this cock-smoker in a minivan kept riding my ass. The Harley guy speeds up and gets in my lane. The cock-smoker almost clips me as he passes me on the right (I'm totally pissed-off by this point). The Harley guy had seen what happened and flipped that guy the bird and they started arguing through the window of the minivan. We all hit a light and the Harley guy pulls behind the minivan, I roll-up to the cock-smokers window and ask what his fucking problem is. He starts yelling in my face about hogging the road. I snapped and punch the fucker in the face through the window. He steps on the gas with my arm still inside his car, it throws me off balance and tips over my bike. I lifted up my bike, got it started and began following him. I chase him another block till he stops and gets out to call the pigs. I got off my bike and put up my dukes. This chicken shit is still yelling at me as he runs into a gas station. My and harley dude get the fuck out of there, I didn't want to get sweated by the cops. Then it takes me an hour to get home.
    How's that for solidarity. I never even said one word to my buddy on the harley.

    Kind of a long story sorry. I just had to tell somebody.

    I heard about this, too, but it's not just cooking oil, you have to mix in other stuff with it, too.

    What sucks is that there is so few choices for Diesel in the US! I've been on the hunt for a new diesel vehicle and all I come across is VWs. Nothing against VWs but they are not exactly my favorite in terms of style and trim. Most companies have stopped selling diesel here or it's way out sane price ranges so it's the used lot I go. Why can't they ship a couple new cute Audi A2's to the States?

    fuck this shit. I guess I gotta get me a bus pass. I'm taking some classes at this college they built in the middle of nowhere (cheap ass land) so there's no way that I can walk there. oh yeah and my freind moved and left my bike at his old place. so I'm screwed, I have to drive my car till the gas runs out, cuz I can't afford to fill it up after this. I really don't mind cuz I hate cars and i'll be glad when the gas finally runs out. but in the meatime I'm kinda stuck.

    Yeah, I've read about this too. I saw an article about different types of cooking oil that you can use. I was watching the news the other day, and I saw this guy dump about 10 bottles of vegetable oil into his F350. I was amazed on how much his gas milage has went up compared to normal diesel gas
