You know, we got a german song here from the eighties, on line goes like: " ... fuel is 2 Mark 10, same to me, somehow it will work out ..." (translation does not reflect the rhyme, I fear!) That would be about a Euro. And everybody at that time thought: "What a ridiculous high price! Funny! It will never happen!" Today we're all remember fondly of the good ol' times where the fuel was to be had for that price. I always start crying when listening to that song. Fortunatly it isn't played very often today
BTW, grunt: Jokes about high fuel prices are not fun, but expression of pure despair!

lol try owning a 4x4 Cardinal, you get hated twice by people, once for having it in the first place and the other for being a "gas guzzler" funny thing is that people dont stop to think that some people might actually need it.
All i need to do now is be like Jed Clampet and find an oil well under one of the lawns!
Oh btw we pay the high prices on just about anything now because of our "carbon footprint" which translates to being able to make us pay far far more for things due to the enviroment and nothing what so ever to line the pockets of greedy money grabbing &^%£$%"*
Oh dear this is getting political better stop there
