Hahahahahahahaha...Great toons Sandi!!!
I especially like the first one from the Ottawa Citizen, seems quite poignant in it's subtle hint on the effects of why we love our "gas" as much as we do...that rather robust fella holding his arm could certainly be a poster child illustrating the woes of not walking more than we should be.
$1.10 per litre here in Canuckville in my locale.
I know in past discussions, there seemed to be some discrepancies
regarding the whole metric vs. imperial measurements and US vs. imperial gallons and what each volume holds...I'll leave that for the mathematicians of the board to figure out and I won't get into that suffice it to say that the price for gas has gone up considerably once again over the last few weeks.
It appears that the price will continue to rise for the motoring public
as a whole now that the summer is approaching. Seems to be the norm.
I was quite surprised to see the price actually decline over the winter months back to prices that we were a little more accustomed to a year or so ago. I for one was proven wrong when I stated to some that I'd be highly surprised to ever see gas fall below the $1.00 per litre mark again. Once they have you at that rate, seems to me that if demand can handle it, supply will be justified accordingly. Actually went back to 89 cents here for a bit!!!
WOW! There was dancing in the streets I tell ya!
Probably a rouse to get us used to the high prices, placate us by dropping back down temporarily, and then back to what we were able to once pay...only to eventually stay there until the next major hike for whatever reasons...Katrina, pissed off Arabs, leak in the Earth's crust???
Safe to say that I don't think we'll ever again see the 75 cents a litre price that was so common for quite some time not 3 years ago.
Ahhh...what do I know?
? hahahaha. I still have 2 good feet and they know how to pedal a bike. I'll save the gas money and buy some new shoes...and be healthier for it in the end...wait a second?...that's an oxymoron isn't it?...
In the end, I'll be dead...and that ain't healthy is it!!!!!
? DOH!!!!!!!!
Price of gas may pretty much cancels out any thoughts about RV'ing as a hobby in my Golden years as well...hahaha Could be possible with one of those "recumbent" bikes though...hmmm?
...
...mmmmMMMMM!!!!
It'd be tricky mounting one of these babys though???...uhmm...I guess if I fell off, I'd just get back on and try again...kinda like trying to ride that bike in the pic as well???...DOH!!!!!
...I'm a baaaaaad pussycat!
Thanks
