Go-go juice? We need another term. That's what I call Guinness.

Guiness ah twas loik mooders milk to us...no really you oughtta see me mam!

Over here there is a bit of a furore about people running their cars on cooking fat.
Big fines handed down to the welsh who were plucky enough to realise that you can run a diesel engine on old cooking oil out of the deep fat fryer (the only way we cook in Blighty you know).

Weird thing is that when Diesel invented the engine fated to carry his name,he actually designed the thing to run on ground nut oil,or peanuts to you and me.

So there you have it how to run your car for peanuts,run it on peanuts.

Could you imagine it if we all did that,the smog in LA would smell of fried chicken!

The good Colenel would be proud, god bless his little downs syndrome head.

I tried this thing called "walking" or summat? Bloody smart it is, works out dead cheap too.

Tony Bleurgh should means test car owners in the UK. Half the lazy sods who drive cars, dont need them. Having said that, I get well pissed off if I can't find a cabbie when I'm half cut on "Faroukba's Breakfast", as all boozshhh is now to be affectionately known as.

Plus, in LA there's nowhere to walk TO, unless you first drive someplace that's in a shopping center or whatnot, and thus within walking distance of some other stuff.

Walking 5 miles to get to shops & restaurants? Not likely, and too time-consuming.

But really... LA Story is pretty close to the mark when it comes to driving.

yeah, I'm not going to get into a vehicle without seatbelts that has an operator that could be text-messaging while trying to keep on the road.

Ha. I clicked on the first page of this and saw $1.65/gallon in Florida and was like, "$1.65 in Florida? What is that, another country in the former Soviet Union?"

god...i look at pictures from the late '90s where there just happens to be a gas station in th BG and can't believe gas used to be that cheap! At least it's going down, most I paid was damn near $5 about a month or 2 ago. I felt like doing a celebratory when I first saw it go below the $4.00 mark (even if it was $3.99).
