There are some stations in the Boston area that has regular at $3.03 already! And in NJ, several stations RAN OUT OF GAS!!! The reason was given that.......the refineries are switching over to Ethenol.....ya right, and I just sold a bucket of ice to some Eskimos too !!! <br /> <br /><font color="red"> COYOTE ATTACK </font id="red"> Just came on the news, a father was bitten on the arm by a Coyote that was part of a pack near a camp ground about 25 miles NW of here on the NH border. The father tried to chase the Coyotes away with pepper spray, but one Coyote attacked. Eastern Coyotes are getting very bold and less fearful of humans. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Sounds like the service station guys are trying to feed a bunch of crap to their customers now, maybe hoping to start a new market since they're out of gasoline. I'm waiting for one of our local coyotes to come up and taunt our dogs like he usually does, there's a loaded .30-06 on my bed as we speak. (yes, the bolt's open and the safety is on) <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: By <b><font color="navy">Paul B.</font id="navy"></b>: I guess I'll burn the dead grass and weeds on the 7.5 in track. If I'd get the weed killer out earler than I could avoid this.[/quote] <br /><font color="red">FIRE</font id="red">!!! NEED <font color="red">FIRE</font id="red">!!! Been without it too long with these burn bans! Most places won' t burn too easily now, the grass is <font color="green">green </font id="green">enough to stop it, it's not growing, but it's <font color="green">green</font id="green">. <br /> <br />We've been busy putting in air conditioners/heaters for the last couple of days, one of the old ones was 34 years old, and the other was 29, so Dad figured it was about time to replace them, and these are a lot more energy efficient units. They're split systems, which makes them a lot harder to install than a package unit, but it looks a lot better. <br /> <br />Prom was last night, and Graduation's coming up on May 19. Prom was good, the theme was Las Vegas, so they had a casino set up for a little while where the winners got tickets for a drawing (you also got tickets if you were on the dance floor, that's how I got most of mine), and drew for 3 prizes every 30 minutes. My date was really nice, I really didn't know her all that well, but we go to college together, and she's a whole lot better girl (i.e. she doesn't go out in the country and get drunk every weekend) than anyone in my class, so we got along pretty well. <br /> <br />Well, I've got to go to youth group in a minute, so I'd better be going, <br />Greg
