    Hah! I'm gonna get a $500 Ford Contour with a pollen filter and ride this baby out with an excellent ride/handling compromise. The limited rear leg room? No problem for a mobile isolation chamber.

    From what I understand the only cases in the US were in Ohio and Kansas.


    As my luck would have it, I live in Ohio and just visited Kansas this past weekend for a wedding.


    It was nice knowing you guys.

    I don't believe in swine flu. Or bird flu. Or SARS. It's just the man trying to keep me down. Well, I say, "Damn the man!"


    Although, I did convert to Judaism just to be safe.

    Yes, that's it...even though I don't believe in swine flu to begin with.

    I'm thinking the swineflupocalypse is a swinefluhoax. Now, why would the government want to create a national panic...hmm...are they perhaps trying to hide something else that they're doing right now? Like when Bill Clinton was being orally pleasured while bombing aspirin factories? ;-)

    Calling Dr. Fleishacker... Starve a cold, feed a fever to me with plenty of barbeque sauce.


    Oil is cheaper because sick people can't drive to work or run factories. Also poorer, because they aren't getting paid when they don't work. All part of God's plan.

    I got gas today for $2.01. Its the first time in months that its been over 2 dollars. I'm so sad about it. I only put in 8 dollars for spite.


    But it doesn't help that I'll just have to get more tomorrow.


    I still feel like I won.

    I enjoy 35+ mpg. I was able to make a 300 mile round trip to Toronto a week and a half ago for $20 in gas and $6 in tolls. Hell yeah.

    @wrx-tyrannosaurusWrx: It's been hovering between $1.95 and $1.99 for a couple months now after getting as low at $1.65ish... some stations are pushing $2.07 or so, but I think most of them are reluctant to break that mark unless totally necessary.
