Another new record. $123.81/bbl.

Sail prices will rise, soon, to meet demand....

Anyone caught near our french fry oil warehouse will be shot!

I'll be collecting more oil from the Chinese restaurants just before their
lunch rush in the morning.....





Well above 5 bucks a gallon for diesel at some marina pumps around here.
$4.70 per gallon of diesel at the pumps on the highway. Ha ha ah! I just
love it. I have noticed a decrease in boat operations since the prices have
gone up. Hope to see the prices go up much more as the higher they go the
fewer stinkpotter arseholes on the water. There's a silver lining to every
cloud.

I find myself laughing at the redneck jerks who used to think it was so cool
to drive around in those giant, dually, diesel pickup trucks and to leave
them running for half an hour at a time in the parking lot while they were
shopping just to run the A/C so it would be cool inside when they got back.
Poetic justice, I say! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!!

Then there's the stupid fisherman who runs a 40-foot or more open fisherman
with two or three 250hp motors on the transom. They are complaining it takes
a thousand bucks to fill their tanks. And all this just to go out and catch
maybe fifty bucks worth of fish? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! What fools. What
imbeciles. What morons!

Then there's the Hummer crowd. Gasoline powered but lucky to get 8mpg. Fill
her up? Yessir, go ahead, make my day. I laugh at you too. Just another
stupid person to kick around.

I look forward to the day when diesel is 10 bucks a gallon. That will surely
cause all those so-called sailboats that are nothing but motorsailers to
just stay tied up at the dock. Good riddance to them all, I say. Take your
Perkins, your Yanmars, your Westerbeeks, your Volvos, your Kubotas and all
the rest of your pollution machine abominations and use them as moorings or
ballast only. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Use your sails for once. Learn how to get under way using sails only. Learn
to anchor and moor using sails only. In other words learn how to sail. After
all, you claim to be sailors, don't you?
