    All the morons back up gas pumps cause they want to fill up before the price goes up, even if they only need a couple gallons, so they back things up, create a situation, cause more of a demand and in general make things harder than they already are........I guess that's why they are morons.
    Wait till ya really need gas, if ya have to pay a bit more, it's worth it, in the end it will even out anyway, being cheap like that is beyond stupid.

    make up your mind, are they morons or idiots? You just have to hope theres a hot babe in the line and then you can dream about the things you used to be able to do. If you know what I mean.

    Oh would you please store some gas at your house in case i'm ever down that way and need topping off.(gas that is)

    Oh you could show the attendent some leg that should get you out of there faster.

    I saw that crap on the news.

    I thought "they'll run outa gas before they get there".
    I know a cattle dealer in non flodded Louisianan and the trucks HAVE to fill up before they get to his town 'cause they have no fuel there.

    A local radio station in Tampa had a promo today, gas 97 cents for one hour...sounded like a real mess for the police. people were in line at 4 AM. 10 GALLON LIMIT.
    call letters are 97WFLA hence 97 cents..how unclever!
    If common sense is so common how come so few of us have it!

    Did you show some leg? Or show them the picture of Dices leg that you keep in your wallet.

    Tell them about the convention, that and $3.00 a gal. should do it.

    Does the guy there always have a five o'clock shaddow ? Thats when you know your going to get screwed.

    I bet you were the fifth smartest guy there.

    All this abuse and I like you, amazing isn't it?

    I really haven't had any trouble getting gas yet, a bit crowded in B-More though. I just see it coming.
    Maybe it's my legs, I dunno.

    I haven't noticed much difference around here.

    On 9/11 though I got stuck hard. Had almost no gas in my car, thus, needed gas bad! Ended up waiting almost an hour in line to fill up. I wanted to kill and mame so many people after that wait!

    Install a few Goodmans that should satisfy your blood lust.

    You should have shown a little leg, oh wait a minute i've seen your picture show some cleavage instead.
