I'm ready to join the Amish. Get a horse & buggy. We have a lot of Amish here where I live. Our township is 1/2 Amish.

They have some good looking women "undercover" as well,  Might be a good deal--?.

You will have to tell me and all of us about it when you do this.  I think you may have watched too much of the movie " Sex-Drive" which in my opinion was off the chain and just down gut-busting halarious.  B.

I saw it first hand when I went to a party to pick up a car of theirs that let them down. It was a wild party.
(before they join the group anything goes) Girls were real drunk & friendly.
Another time I sold a boy a portable radio. He got home with it & pop smashed it. The kid took
one of pops young pigs and sold it.
When I was in a bar I owned they would come in & get drunk. It gave a snow storm this one night. When they
went to leave they could not find their horse & buggy. They tied it to the back of a truck tractor that was there &
the truck was gone. We thought the truck pulled it down the road. Then we followed the tracks & it took us to
their barn. Pop found out they were there & came & got the horse & buggy.
I could write a book about what I've seen with the Amish.

It is and was speculated that it is POSSIBLE 5.00 --Thats 5 bucks a gallon------May see this in the NEAR future-- :103-.  Time to put away the ethynol and CALIFORNIA.  Some breif research would validate my statement here. I also work for a Large auto maker. Looks like only the "elite" will be motoring pretty soon.  Just in time for the summer months --go figure.  B.

Minneapolis spiked up to $3.49 in the past day or so.  I was able to top off my tank at $3.19 at Sam's Club on my way home tonight, as I know it won't be that "cheap" tomorrow.

Here in the Motor City area gas has gone from $3.09 on Monday to $3.45 today at the same station across from where I work. I drive 65 miles a day round trip, and I'm lucky if my truck get 15 mpg... ouch... :18-

It looks like it's $3.70 at the 7-Eleven and $3.80 at the Union 76 in your home town as of today. My excel graph line is almost straight up this last week, and has been rising since the last dip at the end of October, 2010.

  $3.97 for Diesel Fuel  which means if my truck was empty, $952 to fill it up. Funny thing the truck gets 6 to 7 MPG and doesn't give a damn how much it cost !!!!!!!!!!!

With all that slot machine stuff you push you can afford it------------- :208-.  I am a diesel man myself,  No they do not care.  But with that mielage sounds like you may have an old idi (inderict-injection) dusted engine --(dusted-cyl walls/rings/blow-by-loosing heat-of-combustion) .  What exactly is your diesel -- :103-.   PWRSTROKE

Gas at Costco was $2.93 in Denver. Most stations are around $3.00. I'm sure that will change.
Have a cabin in the mountains near Fairplay. It was $3.38 a gallon yesterday.
Can't wait for summer prices.

Yup. I was down that way in January, and the difference was about $.70/gal ($2.69 AZ, $3.49 CA). Of course, I live in an expensive area, and we have that stupid Green gas, so we get raped at the pump.

We just went over 3 to $3.04 a couple days ago. WY historically has some of the lowest gas prices in the country though.
