Skyrocketing gas prices.

Not so funny money.

New U.S. five dollar bill coming soon to a gas station near you.


A buddy of mine e-mailed me this picture. Couldn't pass up the opportunity to share with the blogger world. So fitting to us bikers and non bikers as well.

  1. As much as the very real possibility of this sucks, it won't be as hard on bikers as it is for the cagers. For people who have both long commutes to work and not-so-fuel-efficient vehicles, it'll really be tough.

    Something's got to give.

  2. Agreed. Except I don't think that anything's going to give until some of our lawmakers admit that they've steered us down the wrong path as far as gas and energy.

  4. If they are going to charge this much for gas they better build us an autobahn to make up for it. Funny pict...but not funny at the same time. I don't know whether to laugh or cry man. I honestly feel it's a plot to force consumers to buy more fuel efficient vehicles, thus forcing the automakers to produce more efficient vehicles, thus meeting the mandate to have a certain percentage of fuel efficient car on the road by 2012, thus squashing our reason to be over in the "sandbox". Just sucks that the only way to make this happen is to force the consumer into making the choice, if you call it a choice. You have to admit, consumers are at fault here too and we won't give up the big trucks and four barrel carbs unless we really have no other option. Uncle Sam and the "secret free-mason society" knows what they are doing. Fortunately there is a 100 million gallon ethinol plant being built that will be finished by 2010 that uses any carbon based garbage, such as tires, to create ethinol via microrganisms. Suppose to sell at around a dollar a gallon with virtually no emissions. Can you use that stuff in the bikes? I am going to check that out.

    Hows that for 5 bucks. I'll shut up now I'm starting to ramble on now.

  5. Hey! Us Freemasons have absolutely nothing to do with the gas prices. If "we" know what we're doing then they haven't shared it with me, that's for sure!

  6. lol, I have a friend who is into conspiracy theories and he swears there is a secret organization that controls the world made up of FreeMasons.

    Wow, I edumacated myself. I just found out that almost half of the fuel in the country already has ethanol added to it. I didn't know that. HD also recommends the use of E10 for its engines, but no higher. Am I the only one who didn't know this? Feel like I have been under a rock or something.
