101 THINGS ABOUT ME.....CAUSE YOU KNOW YOU REALLY ARE DYING TO KNOW.

1 I have never broken a limb. I have a huge fear that I will someday and I will freak the hell out.

gassy ass

10:05 PM - GASSY ASS

I am incredibly irritated with people whining about gasoline prices.

Of course the media adds to the frenzy. They keep saying that current gas prices are "record highs" when in fact nothing is further from the truth.

Once adjusted for inflation, the highest gas prices on record in this country were in 1981.

For anyone who says that adjustment for inflation is not necessary.....you could say "Nacho Libre" made more money than "Gone with the Wind" if you do not adjust the numbers.

We are the wealthiest country on Earth and yet countries which are poor, such as Peru, pay almost 8 bucks a gallon for gasoline. We drive around in an SUV....we use vehicles that are meant to move through the Outback....but we use it to drive down to the corner for a jug of milk. It's ridiculous.

Get a hybrid. Get a smaller car. You do not need an SUV if you are a single person...unless your work depends on it.

You don't need a van unless you have a crowd of kids.

The gasoline companies have to make a profit just like any other business......and the process of acquiring gasoline is a long and complicated one.

This all aside..these are not "record highs".......
