I paid a buck 99 for gas this morning
 
I never thought I would see $1.xx ever again, even if xx=99. I filled up for under $30! Whoo Hoo I wish I had a 1000 gallon storage tank. Or maybe I should learn to bet on the energy futures market! I bet the price is going back up! :D

Rhertz maybe a new car and you will go far
 
I bought a new Lexus 350 and returned to the dealer the next day
because I couldn't get the radio to work. The salesman
explained that the radio was voice activated. "Nelson," the
salesman said to the radio. The radio replied, "Ricky or
Willie?" "Willie!" he continued and "On The Road Again" came
from the speakers.

Then he said, "Ray Charles!", and in an instant "Georgia On My
Mind" replaced Willie Nelson.

I drove away happy, and for the next few days, every time I'd
say, "Beethoven," I'd get beautiful classical music, and if I
said, "Beatles," I'd get one of their awesome songs.

Yesterday, a couple ran a red light and nearly creamed my new
car, but I swerved in time to avoid them. I yelled, "Ass
Holes!" Immediately the French National Anthem began to play,
sung by Jane Fonda and Barbara Streisand, backed up by Michael
Moore and The Dixie Chicks, with John Kerry on guitar, Al Gore
on drums, Dan Rather on harmonica, Nancy Pelosi on tambourine,
Harry Reid on spoons, Bill Clinton on sax and Ted Kennedy on Scotch.

Damn, I LOVE this car!

Isaac :D

Up until recently, I've been sharing my car with my sister. She just got herself a new car this week and I'm happy because I can make a tank of gas all several weeks and just fill up every payday.

My sister can drop me off at work in the morning with a full tank of gas. I usually make a point to press the trip counter at this point so I can later see how much driving has been done during the day. When she comes to pick me up in the evening, there is usually 1/4 of a tank left and well over 100 miles on the counter. WTF?! :confused: Not to mention, she is a smoker and thinks very little of others in MY car who are not smokers (like me).

I am so freaking happy she has her own car now so she can be responsible for her own freaking tank of gas and leave my car alone.

LMAO, dang that was funny. You had me there for a moment. You do have a sense of humor when it comes to politics! Laughing at socialists might be good for you and keep you from strangling one someday!
