I loved the scenery around Newark Airport though when I landed there almost 7 years ago. Reminded me of home....

Impressive, eh? hehe. I always wonder what people think when they land in Newark on their first visit ever to the US. The best part, though, is when they hire a car to take them into Manhattan from there...they pass right by one of those billboards. Yikes!

Sting is mistaken. I just got back from Fresno, 225 highway miles each way. My average for the trip (the Popemobile is a Prius) was approximately 50 miles per gallon, a few miles per gallon <U>better</U> than I get during my normal stop-and-go commute to the office. --Bob

"are up 38% (at least that is what the news said this morning). =

How are you absorbing that into your budget? "

I bought oil futures when oil was $39 per barrel, most of which I have sold recently, so from my perspective, Gas is free, free, free!!!
