Oil prices got you down?
From another thread that was veering off-topic...
Besides untreated water, name another liquid you can get for $1.50/gallon. Bill had mentioned California diesel prices hitting $3.00/gallon in another thread. http://www.latimes.com/business/la-f...-home-business At first I thought waaa waa waa, it's still cheaper than most countries on the planet.... until I did the math! Tonight I paid $.82/L Canadian for diesel, after conversion to gallons and into US Funds, I paid $2.54/gallon US... hehehe. Unfortunately, regular unleaded in Canada is still $2.86/gallon US, almost $.30 higher than California. It's important for us Canadians and Americans not to whine too much for our overseas friends are paying at least twice as much for "petrol". Let's keep things in perspective In fact, at today's price of $63/barrel (petroleum barrels are 42 gallons)... A cool refreshing cup of crude oil would cost you about 10 cents unlike the thieving pimply faced little girl down the street selling lemonade for 25 cents a cup. Slide by your local pub for pint after a hard days work? You'd jump at a chance to get your suds for the price of a pint of crude at 19 cents. If only we could get a 255 ml can of pop for the price of crude... about 9 cents. |

lets try not to run to the pump every day to top off the tank thus reducing a higher
demand , lets slow down and reenact the 55 mph law federally, slow down and keep our vehicles fix when the check engine lite is on. start using concrete and cut down ashphalt that takes all kind of oil/tar to make and just watch how much oil comes down after 3 months of of causing a glut in the market gas does not have the shelf life it used to so they do not want to stockpile it Cherokee-Ltd wrote: > From another thread that was veering off-topic... > > Besides untreated water, name another liquid you can get for $1.50/gallon. > Bill had mentioned California diesel prices hitting $3.00/gallon in another > thread. > http://www.latimes.com/business/la-f...-home-business > > At first I thought waaa waa waa, it's still cheaper than most countries on > the planet.... until I did the math!
