One thousand, eight hundred, sixty five dollars and sixty nine cents PROFIT... PER SECOND!!!!

When I go to the grocery store they made "price adjustments" to cover the cost of increased fuel prices a month or so back. When I go to ANY store, they raised the prices because they couldn't afford to pay for fuel to restock. Now fuel prices have reduced from "gouging" to "disgusting" but the grocery stores are not making the "price adjustments" to match the LOWER fuel costs.

I think this bears repeating: ONE THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED SIXTY FIVE DOLLARS AND SIXTY NINE CENTS PER SECOND... PROFIT... PER SECOND!!!! They have made almost another HALF MILLION DOLLARS IN PROFIT in the time it has taken me to type this post.

Oh, yeah, we have a energy crisis alright, but the lack of off-shore drilling is not the problem. It is greed, plain and simple. A little help from friends in high places don't hurt much either.

The speed of Light = 186,000 miles per second

These guys are making money at ten times the speed of light?

That's a long time to wait for something to trickle down. I was still a virgin in '87. Come on, trickle!

I should HOPE you were a virgin in 1987.
All kids in grade school should be virgins.
pardon my morality speech again, but GRADE SCHOOL isn't the time for a child to lose her/his virginity

I was in 7th grade in '87, that's middle school here. But alas, a virgin.
