Wow, gas prices are getting even higher. The way I see it, someone who comes up with an affordable solution will be a very rich man. I came up with the Flintstone Car last year but that didn't seem to catch on. I'll think I'll come up with another idea. Here it is - this idea will change the world. How about a global chauffeur service? How much does a tank cost a week? Probably $25 to $35 and it is used mostly to go back and forth to work. What if there was a website you could go to where people could find neighbors that worked near the same location? You could arrange a group of 4 people to share the drive to work. That way you would only have to drive to work 1 day a week, thus saving gas. But it wouldn't be just for work. It could be for things like sporting events, church, concerts and movies. Hmm, the business model would be good. Eh, it'll never work. Joe from accounting is not going to want to go to work with Bob the waiter from across the street. But, if gas prices go higher that might just work.

Thought of the Day
Sandy MacReedy: I want you to kill every gopher on the course.
Carl Spackler: Correct me if I'm wrong, Sandy, but if I kill all the golfers they're gonna lock me up and throw away the key.
Sandy MacReedy: Gophers! You great git! Not golfers! The little brown furry rodents!
Carl Spackler: We can do that. We don't even have to have a reason.
