So I go on vacation to the Bahamas for a weekend, safely away from Hurricaine Ike, and get back to Atlanta only to find that there is a "problem" with the gas supply. Well, to be honest, it's more like a "crisis"... there is no gas to be found! Well, maybe that isn't being completely honest, but the stations that do have gas have hour-long waits and some stations are rationing.
I tried several stations here in my town to no avail...
I tried all different kinds of stations...
.... but no one seems to have any gas!
Everyone has taken down the fuel prices and we are at our vehicles' mercy...
Can we make it until the tankers bring in more gas???
Govenor Sonny Perdue has asked for an emergency waiver. Apparently, we here in the Atlanta area are only allowed "clean" fuel... due to the high pollution in our great city.
We need "dirty" fuel.
any fuel....
Heck, I'd take a horse and buggy! ( maybe the Amish aren't so naive) !!
I might just have to bring along my 6-foot garden hose so I can siphon a bit from the car parked next to me at Walmart.... (did I say that out loud?)
Well, I guess if I do run out of gas, I can always just stay home (which is what I have always wished I could do anyway) Hey! This fuel-shortage thing isn't such a bad idea afterall!
Now I might just get around to getting those cruise pictures posted on this blog.... WA-HOO!!!

How scary! What's this country coming too? About the horse idea, it works for us- horses are cheaper than a new car purchase, I can't believe that- freakin me out! Well, I hope it gets better for you over there..
