RE: East Side Report
The sad thing is is the gas price is good news[:'(] I jumped for joy paying $2.03 for diesel this afternoon[:-][:'(]
But sounds like the long hot dry season is starting for you over on the right side of the State? Hope it rains before Muzzleloader Elk comes around. My Dad and I are going to give it a go up your way Wayne, guess my Uncle has a pretty decent herd he knows about and keeps tabs on them. Nice thing is is it's an any elk hunt. I know I rant about bigger antler restricitons yet I;ll take a cow. My problem with the antler restriction is the spike only crap. I think if they're gonnd do this type of managment I think they should rotate it? Some how?

I'm sure you're a great person and all, but please lose the crying about gas prices. Do you realize that gas prices today are not particularly higher than they've ever been historically? Yeah, I know, grandpa paid 45 cents per gallon way back when, but he was making about $1.90 an hour on his job, too.

So Dirt you must be a Chevron or texaco rep? Why not cry about them.... Shouldn't be any problem with anyone pitchin a bitch about something that's what these forums are here for. I understand the whole inflation thing with the gas prices and I'm sure the cost of my house maybe comparable to yesteryear but DAMN I still complain about those prices too... Oh an anew car what about them prices? Heck you use to buy a house with land for the price of a Yugo...everyone complains about them too?

RE: East Side Report
You've been living in the same town as the guy I heard on the radio a while back trying to downplay the increase in gas prices. His analogy was that we pay $1.25 for a 20oz bottle of water, so if you compare that to what we pay for 20oz of gas, gas is relatively inexpensive even at today's prices. Bullsh:+! Where have you been living Dirt? Not in the same world as me because our histories are totally different. I was paying $1.50 almost a year ago to the day, and now it's $2.05 at the same gas station. And I can remember back before the 1st Gulf War paying less than $1.00. That's less that 15 years to get to over a dollar increase in price, $.55 of which has come in 12 months. They think if they leave it up for long enough, we'll grow accustomed to it and be content. That's what I'm bitchin' about! And my grandpa spent a lot of time travelling on a horse, so his vehicle made it's own gas. If you don't like the content of our discussions, don't log on.[:@]
