[Shotimes] slow day

[Paul Nimz]

As far as I know they do not need to tell you if alcohol  is included.  My
nose can tell and I suggest you ask the station manager.  I will guarantee
that your gas in Illinois has a 10% ADM mixture. I was fooled by Shell gas
for awhile till I asked the station manager and the truck driver delivering
the fuel.

pushing corn squeezens except for Casey's regular) Nimz
