What’s it going to take?
(To feed my car)

My needs are few,
roof over my head,
food in my belly
to keep my fed
and gas in my car,
ain’t going far,
(at these prices, who can?)
Paid $3.59 a gallon just today,
going up tomorrow,
more I surely don’t want to pay.
Times are getting mean,
trimming back as far as I can,
all I need is gasoline…
At today’s rate for me to putt putt along
my best bet,
would be a can of pork and beans.
Ain’t life a gas?
put ten dollars in my tank got me 2.7
crazy prices
reviews to my site as well.

But then they tell us methane is causing global warming, I dont know bout that, but it causes warming hehe

blessin's, keep that can opener handy with plenty of pork and beans. . . creating natural gas is what we might all want to do. . .and let it all loose in synchronized unison, put it in tankers, and power our cars with methane fuels.
love this. . .

This is the direct result of the Bush Administration's policies. Don't forget that Bush and Cheney are making out like bandits.

Good play on words and every bit is as true as can be. Have you seen cynth'ya's poem called "suck'd," which covers what Americans can do about this gas situation?

Life ain't a gas after all.

Lol...It's over $3 a gallon here too! We nearly have to take out a bank loan to buy a tank of gasoline! It's awful. Hang in there, my friend!
Many blessings,

It's a gas for the rich...us poor slobs who have to work to afford the basic necessities get screwed again. They're talking about that on the news right now: many will be on the road over the holiday, prices be darned. What's it gonna take for us to say, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH???? Makes me glad I don't have a car, my own two feets are my transportation. Can barely afford to fuel mySELF, how would I afford to gas up a car? I wish big business would stop lining their pockets with record setting profits that WE pay...an excellent write, Dan, well done.
