good idea....I'd get a trunk money to do it though, he could ride in the bed (I don't think CA has any laws about trunk monkeys riding in the bed) and crank as I go, that way I'd never run out of charge.
If I was really rich I'd fill the bed full of them monkeys....i'd be like supercharged then, right? What is the power to weight ratio of the trunk monkey?

I am in Ontario right now and Reg. is 1.26 a litre. Do the math... Thats over 5bux a gal. Everything up here is expensive compared to home, so with that in mind we still dont have it as bad as else where.

This crap willnot stop until the revolution begins or serious threats or uprisings happen. They know we are all talk right now.

How many of us are really willing to die for cheap gas? I think some of us throught that's what our brothers and sisters were over there fighting for but the only ones getting anything out of it are the super rich.

Very sad when the people we put in power contine year after year to use our money to make more money and never give us a cut. Sounds kinda like the MOB.
What's scarry is this has been going on all ove rthe world for quite some time, it has finally just hit here. The new world order or one world government or whatever you want to call it is getting everyone on an even field before the **** really hits the fan. And no I'm not paranoid, just a realist.

Haven't I been saying this all along? I did believe that was the purpose of our occupation, well that and to prevent a hostile regime from controlling the region. I know there is a lot more that goes on than any news channel is going to tell us in this country, sometimes I tune to the BBC for a different view but they have the same issues.
