...and here in sunny Winterpeg (we've had 15 inches (40 cm) of wet, thick,
spring mountain like snow, starting on April 1. NO FOOLING. Gas went up
from .499/l to .549/l. In 'merican that's $2.08 per US gallon cdn.
Adjusted for currency, that's $.39 US per US gallon. Bastards! Lest you
think different, we don;t make an extra 50% in income to cover the exchange,
so imagine paying $2.08/usg AFTER paying 26-56% income tax.
((of course, non of this matters as my GT6 sits quietly under snow, still
attempting the spontaneous parts regeneration Andy M refers to, awaiting the
day when I can afford to pay a bodyman to fix the hood I replaced after the
race incident. The Honda, FWIW, uses no gas at all (36 mpg city), and - get
this - LEAKS NOTHING AT ALL!!!! BWAHAAHAAHAAHHAA
