Gas Prices = Chaos
Well, it is official. Gas prices have just went to $4 a gallon around here.
I will not be buying any more guns from now on. All my money will go towards stocking up a few thousand rounds of ammo. It is going to happen soon and I need to be prepared. |

Pfft... Ive been paying that for over a month now... Welcome to my world of pain. My best mileage car is my 2001 Camaro SS that can/has achieved 28=mpg on the highway, but while sitting in traffic nets around 14mpg at most. My daily is my F-150 which will average a whole 11.4mpg.
Fun stuff I tell ya. Personally, I will be buying a motorcycle very soon (within the next two months) and I will hopefully be trading in my F-150 for a Chevy 2500 or F-250 diesel that I will be running on old veggie oil thanks to Greasecar Vegetable Fuel Systems |

BP PLC and Royal Dutch Shell PLC, Europe's two biggest oil producers, posted combined profits of $17 billion today.
BP and Shell post big profits in era of record oil prices: Financial News - Yahoo! Finance We're being squeezed and they're laughing (loudly) all the WAY TO THE BANK!
