Sweet looking ride. Is it a gas sucking pig. My 1972 Mustang with 302
2V got about 12 MPG. I was 18 or 19 at the time.

Speaking of gas prices, now that the supply/demand basis of our economy
has driven gas prices down, the Fed now wants to raise the federal tax
on gas by 10 cents a gallon *(12-15 cents for diesel) *and is
encouraging individual states to also raise their taxes.

Have you seen what Oregon wants to do. Charge per mile driven for
vehicles registered in the state.

They wanted us to reduce burning dino-fuel, well we did. Their revenue
took a hit. Now their coffers are empty and they are in a panic.

Why is it that the state can't ever take a pay cut?

I noted this program months ago here and it was poo'pooed by the usual
trolls. It is really a progrram connected to the Insurance industry
but that's another story. As to Harrys comment, he better hang on to
his money, Obama and Pelosi are talking $1.50 tax on gas per gallon
cause "we can afford it". It's a middle class tax hike, nothing less...

Where do you GET this stuff? .... including quotes?????http://www.platts.com/Oil/News/8221129.xml

Guess I was using the Quotes out of context but I saw a news story the
other day that suggested Obama thinks we can tax gas up to another
$1.50 as we were paying almost 4 last year and did ok... Right now
Pelosi is talking the same way in Washington, so it seems reasonable
to put the two stories together... They said the money would go to fix
bridges and roads... snerk. I will be more careful with my quotes in
the future..

Same to you...your quotes are always out of context.

There you go using terminology which is not in the recipients mental
context.

Wow! Handguns as gifts... somebody knows you! Was it your wife, or her
father?
Maybe it was anonymous.

Neither. It was a friend who has moved on to other hobbies. I haven't
disposed of the handgun yet. It's got a trigger lock on it, and it is
sitting in a locked case inside my safe. It is safe. My plan is to
destroy the handgun. I suppose the local cops could make use of the
ammo, once I get off my butt and do something about it.

Damn. I actually remember that lie. There are so many...
