I drive a Saturn VUE and on Sunday, I filled it up in Wausau Wisconsin.

A full tank cost me $39.00! And I was pumping regular gas only.

The sticker shock definitely hit me. So, I beat up the clerk and drove away w/o paying.

OK, I lied about the last part! But the sticker shock did really hit home.

Well the liberal pukes wanted high fuel costs, no refineries, no ANWR drilling, and no nuke energy plants, they got their wish and I hope the price goes up more so they can really enjoy it.

I would put an extra tax on little toy cars now, to make up for any lost tax on people cutting back on driving real cars and trucks.

This couldn't be better.

I'm curious.

How does this compare to what is taken out of your paycheck for Social Security? At least you got something for your 39 bucks.

I live next door to a gas station.

Last year I pretended to drill a new well but actually drilled sideways into the station's largest tank.

Now I get free gas twice a week.
