1. I wonder if we could organize boycotts to protest. Not on fuel
actually, but other things that would be easier to do without? Too many of us just can't abstain from driving for any length of time and they know that. If we got enough people fired up though, we could put someone out of business and threaten to do it again.

3. Payback's gonna be a biotch in 2013.
The Teahadii are in revolt, and it's going to cost the (R)s the majority in the House, and any chance of taking the Senate and WH.

I hope we have enough (D)-Teh Peoples to run next year.

7. Oil prices have gone down from over 90 bucks a barrel to 85+ closing Friday,but
the price of gasoline is going up. What the hell is going on? It's 3.58 a gal here in the Bay Area.
