I heard today that Exxon Mobile has posted record profits this last quarter -- even beating out giants like walmart -- this is nothing more than the oil companies getting rich off of us.

What Shaun said but I gotta get gas to escape everyday life.
Full moon on Friday and the fishing is usually good under a full moon but it takes a tank of gas. I'm screwed. I'll pay. No choice. That bass I catch will cost me $50 a pound. Still going.

The average price in Utah a year ago was $1.91 per gallon, compared to the current statewide average of $2.30, which matches a record high set in May.

Then my toes would drag. Besides, I probably have too much gut for that poor critter. I ain't much for PETA, but I don't wanna put an animal through something like that.

Then get two Shetland ponies and hook them up to a surrey. A buggy attached behind could carry spare bales of hay. You might get ten miles to the bale that way.
