boon's log 3905.02: Guess what I saw at the gas station?


Oops!

For the record, this was already there when I arrived at the gas pump.

Well, this is definitely something that you do not want to leave behind at the gas station these days with the gas prices soaring like the eagles - well, actually, gas prices has dropped slightly these few days, with OPEC steppping up on the oil production - challenging the governments that it is not the oil production that is driving the high oil prices but the ability to process the oil (coupled with a few other factors such as political stability and weather conditions). Read more here.

by the way, there is an e-mail in circulation now, saying that September 22nd is "Say no to Petrol" Day or what they declared as "Stick It Up Their Behind" Day. Interesting. Someone, somewhere, somehow managed to find the time and resources to calculate how much the entire petrol industry will be impacted if the entire world did not purchase a single drop of petrol on that day (I guess, it's from 12AM to 12AM the next day) - a whopping 4.6 billion dollars. So, spare some petrol for the 22nd or do what majority of Chinese do in China - go get a bicycle... :P

boon out...

I save the money from the bicycle and buy petrol :) Bicycles aren't as cheap as they used to be nowadays. Thanks to the increasing oil prices? :D
