Guys,

Note, that prices in for instance the Netherlands are at least 1.5 times
higher than in the USA!!!!!
So why do you complain?

Cheers,

Hans

Everyone complaining about gas prices...
simply spend a month on the roads in Europe.
...anywhere from $2.50 to $6.00 a gallon (equivalent)

besides...consider the idea that in America our bottled water
costs more than an equivalent volume of beer!

So you think gas is expensive.....



   Diet Snapple 16oz for $1.29 = $10.32 per gallon

   Lipton Ice Tea 16oz for $1.19 = $ 9.52 per gallon

   Gatorade 20oz for $1.59 = $ 10.17 per gallon

   Ocean Spray 16oz for $1.25 = $ 10.00 per gallon

  Pint of milk 16oz for $1.59 = $12.72 per gallon

   STP Brake Fluid 12oz for $3.15 = $ 33.60 per gallon

   Vick's Nyquil 6oz for $8.35 = $ 178.13 per gallon

   Pepto Bismol 4oz for $3.85 = $123.20 per gallon

   Whiteout 7oz for $1.39 = $25.42 per gallon

   Scope 1.5oz for $0.99 = $ 84.48 per gallon



             And this is the REAL KICKER......

   Evian water 9oz for $1.49 = $ 21.19 per gallon  .....$21.19 FOR
WATER!!

  So next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on
Nyquil,
or Scope, or Pepto Bismol!!!!

Just a thought.....
