When we have to put gas in our oletrucks, we're probably all complaining
about gas prices...at least I am.  This kinda gives me a little perspective.

West Texas Intermediate Crude:  $14.68
  What 'other stuff' costs by the barrel [42 gallons]:

  CocaCola:  $ 78.73
  Milk:  $126.00
  Evian Water:  $189.90
  Orange Juice:  $251.16
  Snapple:  $267.12
  Perrier Water:  $328.67
  Lemon Oil:  $390.88
  Crisco Oil:  $435.12
  Scope Mouthwash:  $826.65
  Sunflower Oil:  $971.04
  Olive Oil:  $1,324.38
  Real Maple Syrup:  $1,787.52
  Sesame Oil:  $2,535.61
  Jack Daniel's Sour Mash:  $4,133.26
  Visine Eye Drops:  $32,202.24
  Flonase Prescription Nasal Spray:  $238,133.21
These figures tend to put things into a bit of a different
perspective... don't they?
