Default Georgia Sucks Donkey Balls!!!

Well incase you guys haven't heard when Hurricane Ike came and bitch slapped Texas apparently Georgia took the hit the hardest.

Why? Well apparently we have no fucking gas in this entire fucking state! Why is that? Well because the refineries in Houston shut down to let Hurricane Ike by everyone in Georgia felt that they neede to run to the gas station and fill up all 10 of their damn cars and their 10 5 gallon gas cans and any beer cooler they could find.

Because of this damn mass hysteria if you want gas you have to sit in an hour or two line. I'm not joking either. All the stations in my town are completely out because we live on a main roadway that heads to the University of Georgia and they had a damn football game which meant 10billion people in their SUVs with their gay ass Georgia or shitville flags waving in the wind had to fill up everything they own.

Some stations had enough sense to make $20-30 limit on gas. But gas is at an average of $4.19 a gallon while the rest of the US is much lower!!! Georgia has always been the lowest on gas until this F'n hysteria kicked in.

FUUUUUUCK Atlanta and the idiots (Transplants from the North though) who live here.

Okay I had to rant some...

Amen brother. I'm stopping and getting gas anytime I see an open station, regardless of how much I have. You never know when the shit is gonna run out. Goddamn the media and their scare tactics, and goddamn the idiots who listen to the media. I'm honestly surprised the prices haven't been jacked up more than they are.

I live in a smallish town that is the border of Suburbia and Country. I bet we have atleast 20gas stations just in the town. The only one that had gas was Kroger and it was a huge line (But not as big as I've seen) and they only had 87 available (Fine for my bike but I know not for others).

Here is the beautiful line I sat in (apparently gas was so bad they all sat in their A/C with their vehicles running)

I ended up behind the SUV in front of me and that red Jeep. The Jeep put in $69.50 and the Explorer $67.72. Her pump clicked at $65 or so. That SUV/wagon on the ver left through in $45 and was the least amount I saw anyone throw in. Gee I wonder why there is a gas shortage???

I filled up with $12.67 worth of gas and should be good for another 160+/- miles. Just joy riding will be out for a bit until the trucks can catch up (If they ever can).

But ain't this purdy.
