After I posted my last post I received a comment that simply stated said I needed a divorce…. I answered this comment before I thought to check the profile of the person who sent it… In general my reply was that yes I know I have some problems and I know I have a hard time making friends but this doesn’t bother me none…I used a few ten dollar words to make myself look a little better considering I just been told I had a rotten life in about 6 words…. The comment was sent and THEN I decided to go to the profile of the person who had cut me short…. He was all of 11 years old…
What is this kid some kind of genius!?…. Anyway I learned a lesson from it… You never know who the hell is reading!…. And you never know who the hell is going to comment!… I have to give it up for that kids parents though… They should write a book on how to teach your kid to be smarter than the average bear… Anyway…. Sorry Kid… If I had known you were a kid I would have told you …… TO GO TO BED!… YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT BIG PEOPLES LIFE!... Even though you are a smart little bugger.
Now this next statement came in my email and I wanted to share it with all of you:
GAS WAR!
- an idea that WILL work

>This was originally sent by a retired Coca Cola
>executive It came from one of his engineer buddies
>who retired from Halliburton. It's worth your
>consideration.

>Join the resistance!!!! I hear we are going to
>hit >close to $ 4.00 a gallon by next summer and it might
>go higher!! Want gasoline prices to come down? We
>need to take some intelligent, united action.

>Phillip Hollsworth offered this good idea. This makes
>MUCH MORE SENSE than the "don't buy gas on a certain
>day" campaign that was going around last April or May!
>The oil companies just laughed at that because they
>knew we wouldn't continue to "hurt" ourselves by
>refusing to buy gas. It was more of an inconvenience
>to us than it was a problem for them. BUT, whoever
>thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can
>really work. Please read on and join with us!
>
>By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at
>about $1.50 is super cheap. Me too! It is currently
>$2.79 for regular unleaded in my town. Now that the
>oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us
>to think that the cost of a gallon of gas is CHEAP at
>$1.50 - $1.75, we need to take aggressive action to

>are going to see the price of gas come down is if we
>hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their
>gas! And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves.
>How?
>
>Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop
>buying gas. But we CAN have an impact on gas prices if
>we all act together to force a price war.
>
>Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T
>purchase ANY gasoline from the two biggest companies
>(which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not
>selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their
>prices. If they reduce their prices, the other

>and Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now,
>don't wimp out on me at this point...keep reading and
>I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of

>I am sending this note to 30 people. If each of us
>send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300) ... and
>those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 =

>the sixth group of people, we will have reached over
>THREE MILLION consumers.
>
>If those three million get excited and pass this on to
>ten friends each, then 30 million people will have
>been contacted! If it goes one level further, you
>guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
>Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people.
>That's all! (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million
>and all you have to do is send this to 10 people....
>Well, let's face it, you just aren't a mathematician.
>But I am . so trust me on this one.) :-)
>
>How long would all that take? If each of us sends

>receipt, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be
>contacted within the next 8 days!!! I'll bet you
>didn't think you and I had that much potential, did
>you! Acting together we can make a difference.

>If this makes sense to you, please pass this message
>on. I suggest that we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL UNTIL
>THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP
>THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK...
Well now..... What do you think?.... I'm willing to give it a try..
