    Hehe, I just paid $3.95 a gallon today for 91! Ouch.

        I paid 3.99 on Pacific and Glenoaks. When was the war in Iraq going to start paying for itself again??? Oh yeah, another lie.

          Only around 10-15% of the oil used by the US is from the Middle East, only 3-5% is from Iraq or Kuwait. The majority of our foreign oil comes from Canada, Venezuela, Mexico, Nigeria, and England.

            Well, Bush said this war would make gas/oil cheaper(not my opinion, fact). Furthermore I realy doubt the numbers you are putting up. Not because its you, though.

              Our price of oil can be attributed to the weakened dollar, which is attributed to sub-prime lending.

                I agree about the war in Iraq and the oil price's and what Bush has said, but the sources are also true-


                Where does the U.S. get their oil from? We have the top U.S. oil imports by country. We have the top United States oil imports.

                    So, I just booked a room at the Sandpiper Lodge for Friday and Saturday night, so I'll see you guys there.

                    Damn, I still have a long ways to go to get my car ready to drive down there...

                      Sorry y'all, but I'm out. I simply won't have the money, it's too close.

                      It falls right in between paydays, and after not having a job for a month, I'm sort of paycheck to paycheck right now until things even out.

                            Maybe we should start a fund like you awesome moherfuckers did for me last year?!

                            Josh, what do you think it would cost in gas?

                              Matt, figure 2600 miles -> 260 miles a tank about 10 fillups at $35.

                              $350ish? I'll chip in $25

                                That sounds about right. I don't want to take your guy's money, gas is expensive enough for all of you as it is. And it's more than that. I have a great new job that I'm really grateful to have, and I need to be working as much as I can right now. I've already requested the days off I want for the Picnic, and with me only being there for just over a month now, I don't think it would be a good idea if I came to my boss asking for another day off in a couple of weeks.
