Stay Home This Summer
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008The summer is almost upon us. I can’t wait. I have so much to do this summer it is unbelievable. I have three weddings to attend, paint the shed, finish the upstairs bathroom… The list goes on and on. Where do you find the time?
I know how we find the time this year. It’s simple, don’t go anywhere this summer. Stay the fuck home. Gas is will soon be well over four dollars a gallon.
This economist named Dan Dorfman thinks gas could be somewhere between $7 and $10 in the next three years. Of course, he is speculating based on a theory that crude oil will be $200 a barrel in just those short three years.
Can you believe that this is happening? Like I said stay in your houses. Don’t go anywhere and eat as much as you can while you are at home. You got to get fattened up for the winter. Heating Oil is also quite elevated in price as well. I have an 1100 square foot home and I’m close to using 800 gallons of oil even with this year’s mild winter.
The good news is that some may say that the rise in gas prices could decrease obesity in America. Think about it, lazy Americans can’t afford the trips to restaurants or fast food stores and establishments can’t be profitable by delivering their hot, out the bag, goodness. It is such a mess for the obese American, me being one of them.
So let’s think about the options. Alternative fuel? More public transportation? Carpooling? Telework? Maybe the government should have all the unemployed and disabled people buck up for some gas money. What do we do?
Someone should invent a water powered car or one of those Mr. Fusion like devices from Back to the Future Part II. I don’t know. I’m not smart enough to figure that out.
All I know is that I’m going to get fat this winter so I can stay warm in the winter.
