I just came back from Maine where gas was $1.54 p/gal. on Saturday.

And my question; has anyone graphed the price of gas the week before holidays? Here we are being told that the Ariz. pipeline problem and the recent east coast blackout have caused the prices to go up .45 p/gal this week.

Why is "abbreviated" such a long word?

Why is it that inflammable and flammable has the same meaning?

Yes I would trade my 911 for the Ferrari, sell the Ferrari to some sucker and use the money to buy a 993.

Why are there flotation devices under plane seats instead of parachutes?

If nothing ever sticks to TEFLON, how do they make TEFLON stick to the pan?

Good question.
I first saw "inflammable" on a gas tanker when I worked in the Middle East. When I got back and looked it up in the dictionary I was surprised also.

My son asked me why most race tracks use gravel traps and fewer use asphalt when you run off the track. If the purpose is to slow you down, wouldn't asphalt be better (assuming your brakes are still working).

In my best Dr. Nick voice from the Simpsons:

Inflammable means Flammable? What a country!!

Or if you REALLY need to hear the real deal:

Why is it I can post the most assinine questions here and have them answered but, I see a Porsche guy on the road and he's a moron?

Couldn't the Germans figure out a clearer setup for fresh air/heat/A/C in our cars? (in mine theoretically 192 different combinations)

Can't someone produce a valve for a 3.2 that wouldn't need adjusting?
