Yeah dude. It\'s crazy. What i wanna know is where the hell is the other 70% of the gas? That pipeline only carried 30%. But still, its nuts. And it still wont be fixed for 3 weeks...

Only 2 hours? When we had some of the major fuel tanks here on Guam burn down after a huge typhoon in December, some people waited almost the whole time there was daylight.....Only to go home with nothing. :eek:

Last pump for me was 2.00 premium

Well if the Euros had more to trade you could probably get gas cheaper.

Bah, I don\'t know what the F I am talking about.


I\'m just glad we won that "War for oil."

ANd why did you wait two hours?  Is this a problem just in Arizona?  I don\'t think I have ever waited for gas in my life.

Gas is 169 here though for 93 and it freaking SIZUCKS!!!

DO we need to blow up another freaking country or something to get oil prices down again?

I just got back from Barrie, Ontario this weekend. On the way there, I passed by Toronto and needed to get gas. The line was ridiculously long coz of the power outage they had the day before. Everyone wanted gas, even if their car was half full. After an hour, I was able to get gas.
