24641. judithathome - 11/8/2008 6:05:26 PM Doesn't sound weird at all...howzit, Ulgine? Hope you stick around...I'm still correcting my typos so you'll have plenty of chuckles! 24642. Ms. No - 11/9/2008 3:07:45 AM Good to see you Ulgine!! 24643. iiibbb - 11/11/2008 1:19:01 AM Arky---
I'm probably not going to make it to Hot Springs. There is something on the table, and unless I can clear it off of there this week I can't make the time next week for the meeting. 24644. arkymalarky - 11/11/2008 1:30:47 AM Oh, man! I'm in Hot Springs in a great Mexican restaurant as I type! You ought to drive down just to fill up your car. It's $1.83 a gallon. 24645. arkymalarky - 11/11/2008 1:34:14 AM I'm getting my car back today, thank goodness. Now if I can just get through deer season without hitting another one. 24646. arkymalarky - 11/11/2008 6:05:36 AM Ok. Just saw on CNN gas avg is 1.87. With a Kroger card in Hot Springs I paid 1.76. But where I shop--not the tiny town where I teach--it's 2.04. I don't get it. It's only 30 miles from Hot Springs. I thoight Hot Springs was way cheaper, but instead we're paying way more. 24647. Ms. No - 11/11/2008 7:18:55 AM We haven't had gas under $2 in over three years. 24648. iiibbb - 11/11/2008 3:05:43 PM We pay 1.80 at Kroger here.
The economy is a weird thing. 24649. thoughtful - 11/11/2008 3:47:47 PM gas in our area is $2.39-$2.59 24650. arkymalarky - 11/11/2008 3:51:16 PM What gets me is the huge diference in towns 30 miles apart. 24651. judithathome - 11/11/2008 7:34:39 PM Yesterday I filled up at CostCo at $1.86 for regular....thank you, Hyundai of Hot Springs!!...and at QuikTrip near my house, it's only a dime more. 24652. jexster - 11/11/2008 9:44:19 PM George Bush must REALLY hate me. I had a huge weekend planned in Sonoma Wine Country ..dinner at the fabulous Cryus in Healdsburg and JUST NOW ..finally after years of trying to get a table, the French Laundry called to say I was up for one...my time had come...Two months in advance as soon as they were opened for business I called 20 times just to get the waiting list
And what does Bush do? He's holding this bogus G20 summit this weekend and my Chevron buddy has to work instead of partying in wine country!
$#()$U$# U#$(&&@@@@!!!!!!!!!!!!! 24653. magoseph - 11/13/2008 11:14:00 PM Hey, Ali, great picture of your friend Caroline!
24654. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 11/13/2008 11:49:20 PM Gosh I wish we had a Costco near hear!
And I'll bet Caroline must be a handful, Mago! 24655. TheWizardOfWhimsy - 11/13/2008 11:49:41 PM near here! 24656. arkymalarky - 11/14/2008 12:28:38 AM Hell, I'd be glad for a Target within an hour from home. 24657. magoseph - 11/14/2008 3:11:30 AM Wonk, here she is, inching her way to Obama.
24658. wonkers2 - 11/14/2008 6:09:42 AM Cap'n Dirty, stands ready to giver a proper welcome in Motown! 24659. magoseph - 11/14/2008 11:56:14 AM And I'll bet Caroline must be a handful, Mago!
I'd have loved to be part of their trip, Wiz--she and her friend, I bet, are great company. 24660. alistairconnor - 11/14/2008 5:09:08 PM They are indeed Mago... As the election panned out, she never had occasion to head north to MI or WI. With a closer contest, you could have had a visit, and Wonk too. I told them Ohio and Indiana, and that's how it panned out.
