No, keep buying oil. It is low now, but it will skyrocket soon, the old we have to make more heating oil scam!

speaking of oil industry scams....

this is my favorite...


We had to raise the price of gasoline by 35 cents a gallon because a non existent refinery blew up and we lost too much production...this has happened twice in my area in the last two years...funny thing was, first time, it happened to be the weekend of the 4th of July... the second, the weekend before Labor day...hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Oh, and another one...our refineries just can not produce the volume gasoline needed to supply the overwhelming demand for it....ok great, EVER THOUGHT OF BUILDING MORE REFINERIES, or EXPANDING EXISTING ONES?

Sorry about the hollering folks, but this is a subject that burns me up...seems like the Oil companies think that the average joe is not too bright

Governments think the same way too...

I had to climb the big ass sign at the store tonight to change gas prices... down to .98/gallon... what's the going rate out there?

StondTmplPilot,

What you wrote is so very true. I live in Northeast Ohio and for a few weeks, the price of gas in our area was exorbitant - the prices were some of the highest in the country.

What really gets me angry is that when something happens to cause the price of gas to rise, why does the supply that's already at the gas station need to go up at that very same time? What happened doesn't affect the suppy they already have. It would be the supply that comes from that major catastrophe, wouldn't it?

Good Lord

This one is an all-time low.

It's called making as much profit as possible.

Let's bleed the bastards for as much as we can get...

Well, that's uncontrolled capitalism for you...

 

[StondTmplPilot]

yeah, you would think so...

PP is right, they just want to gouge us! the pricks! I am just curious to see what kind of catastrophe we will have just before thanksgiving, I know the powers that be who control the prices must be just itching to raise prices, they are way too low. Yesterday it was 1.08 a gallon.

It's nice to make your acquaintance Enchanted, *chuckles* even if you are from Ohio

``For seven days continuously they have been bombing Taliban positions. They used very large bombs,'' said Bakhtar chief Abdul Henan Hemat.

War is Hell, Abdul. At least our bombs aren't filled
with women and children.

Well I can say for sure that this situation is really shitty.

Over here in Toledo gas has been .99 cents a gallon. Now the news is saying that the prices are rising again.
WTF is going on?

Does anyone else take issue with the idea that certain Home Owner Associations can set 'rules' about things like.. No solar panels and such? I do, and I am getting mad as hell how hard they make it to be energy efficient. Truth be told. I go against their policies but no one else does, and I never get in trouble.
Anyway....

How can those people stand their to be in their own skin?
What the hell is wrong with these people?

Fucking dorks.

Enchanted, Nice to meet you. You seem like a wonderful person.
Just thought I'd greet my fellow Buckeye.

Oh and STP, Nice cock!
Oh, and nice to meet you too even if you wish you were from Ohio.

If governments think the average Joe isn't too bright, it's one of the few things they are right about.

Who keeps re-electing the same useless assholes year in and year out?

Oh I know. It's the evil oil companies and the rich.

 

[StondTmplPilot]

thanks miles...just love being called dumb

well, let's see, what other choices do we have? we are given our choice between two rich elitist assholes to vote for, and maybe another "grass roots" type who hasn't the means to plaster his face all over the media like the others. sure we could write in, as i usually do, but everyone knows a write in candidate will never win an election.

starfish, it's nice to meet you too, thanks for the compliment, and while i do enjoy visiting ohio, no i dont wish to live there, hell, i dont even want to be here in michigan anymore! i agree with you about homeowners associations, no one has the right to dictate to another person what they may or may not do with their property. if these people have nothing better to do than stick their noses into other peoples business, then they truly are sad and pathetic. why should they care what anyone does with their home if it does not directly affect them?

StondTmplPilot

Right.

LOL! Very cute. It's nice to meet you, too! No matter where in the Midwest you live, the snow is sure to come. Even though I'm so close, I've never been to Michigan. Although, there is this Christmas Villiage I want to go see, Frankenmuth. I'm not sure if that is how you spell it, though. Maybe one day I'll get there.

Thank you, Starfish. It was sweet of you to say that. It's so very nice meeting another Ohio friend. Toledo is not that far from me. I've been to the Toledo Zoo a few times. Maybe we passed on one of the streets...you just never know. lol
