What if you had to pay $6.02 a gallon for gas?
In Europe, the high cost of fuel isn't new, and it's nothing to panic over
Lydia: Its removal from Burma is a felony and when triggered it has the power to melt human eyeballs.
Giles: In that case I've severely underpriced it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Just google everything at all times, and resign yourself to making less money than your friends!
Excellent! Clearly I am on the right path. (Note to self: cultivate richer friends.)

Man, I wish gas was $6/gallon here.

So for the first two weeks of July, I acted for my boss while she was away on Vacation. I was suposed to get paid an extra 10% of my salary for that time. It still hasn't appeared on my paycheque, and today, the secretary had to resubmit the paperwork to HR because they couldn't find it. @@ I want my money!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Crap. I don't even HAVE long, curly locks! Also, I don't want to go to NYU. Alas.

Ann, that's a ferret.
From tommyrot's link:
The national average for July was now 88 pence a liter, or $6.02 a gallon, and prices have only gone up 10 pence a liter in the past 12 months.
That may be the difference. It isn't that gas is so expensive here. It's that prices have risen so sharply.

Good morning all! I'm on vacation already! (Sorry, Shrift.)
I'm glad Billytea has been girlfriended and Gus is back. I hope the world gets brighter for you, Gus.
I have lots to do this morning, and really should go for a run. But I think I'll clip the dog's nails and clean house instead, so at least I won't be disgusted when I get home late Sunday night.
Sounds like my proposed trip to Alaska may be pushed back. Which wouldn't be the worst thing ever, so long as I don't end up going in, say, late November. Except, thinking I was going to Alaska the end of next week, I bought a new laptop and paid $100 for overnight shipping so it would arrive before I left.
.... erg. I think I need to go tell Dell not to hurry quite so much. But first I should probably check with my boss and make doubly sure I'm not going.
Libkitty! Tell me Fairbanks will still be nice in late September?
