Good grief! More proof of which I speak. The VERY FIRST THING the Rube
mentions is how much diesel fuel he's burned. As if that's something to be
proud of. Like I have always maintained, there is something about diesel
fumes that is addictive and/or corrodes the brain to the point where
people actually BRAG about how much air pollution they produce during
their selfish endeavors.



I think he's bragging about how little he used. And unless you plan to
paddle your boat(s) around, you have to burn some fuel.
