So I pull into my local gas station....
I hop out of my car and remove the handle/open the gas cap and turn around to activate the pump and I see....
64.4 cents/L!!!!!!
I was a happy man! This was at the fast gas on centre and 38thish NE.

Whoa. See, now if I was my sister, I'd be jumping in my Chevy Sprint right now and spending two hours driving from one end of the city to the other to save that 10 cents/liter.
Luckily for me, I'm not my sister.

At least we won't be able to complain about gas prices when we're driving all over the city looking for jobs.

Exactly..... If the price keeps dropping there will no need to buy gas because some won't have jobs to drive to.

I'm pissed I bought a diesel.. We're still paying 90 cents a liter.. For something that costs less to refine and makes up about 40% of a barrel of synthetic crude..

Paying $30 less for a tank of gas while the economy of your province implodes is kind of like getting kicked in the nuts and being happy that while on the ground in pain you find a loonie!

That cartoon is as equally depressing as it is amusing!
What higher purpose do we humans have?
