Sorry if I come on a little strong here, but the cost of fuel doesn't bother me
much. In my opinion it's all a matter of preferences and priorities.....

The way Lisa and I look at it is this......we spend our money on the enjoyable
things that are OUR priorities, which is vacationing, etc. This may not be
other peoples priorities and that is fine, that is their choice.

Examples:
1. We don't spend $400 per month on cigarettes.....some people do and that is
their choice.
2. We don't spend $200 to $400 per month on bowling league with drinks one or
two nights a week.
3. We don't spend THOUSANDS of dollars on season tickets to sports events...
4. We don't have $15,000 worth of snowmobiles, or a summer cabin, ATV's, etc,
etc, etc.

The list could go on forever, it's all a matter of wants, likes and
preferences....... I won't condemn anyone for what they enjoy, many of them may
think that we're all nuts putting money into our GMC's and paying $4.00 for a
gallon of gas for a vehicle that gets between 8 and 10 MPG...... life is all
about choices. If gas goes to $10.00 a gallon (which I hope it doesn't), Lisa
and I will still enjoy our GMC.
