No Gas, Child Predators, Time Waster, and Girls
by Nathan on May.16, 2006, under Uncategorized
I received an email today that I thought I would share with everyone.
“It has been calculated that if everyone in the United States Did not purchase a drop of gasoline for one day and all at the same time, the oil companies would choke on their stockpiles. At the same time it world hit the entire industry with a net loss of over 4.6 billion dollars which affect the bottom lines of the oil companies. Therefore May 19th has been formally declared “Stick It To Them” day and the people of this nation should not buy a single drop of gasoline that day.”
This is all great and good, I’m all for sticking it to the man, but come on really, all this means is that we will all get enough gas on the 18th to make it through the 19th. So let me ask, what does this accomplish? This will only hurt gas stations. So please if you decide not to get gas on the 19th at least stop and get a soda.
Am I the only one who thinks these shows like Dateline, 20/20, and others are having too much fun busting these child predators. I mean really do we need to see a naked guy thinking he is going to get some for a 14 year old girl. I say take the money you are using to produce the show, and give it to the police to help find even more child predators.
Todays Time waster is an olde but a goode. It grabs pictures for flickr and you have to guess what tag all the photos have in common. Find it here.
Guys why do we do the things we do for women? Why do we always play their game? Why do we spend the cash? Why, Why, Why??? I’ll tell you, it’s because it doesn’t matter how much you say you hate it, deep down inside you like playing the game, cause with every game you can’t wait for the out come.

I disagree on your last point. I don’t play the game for I do not like being played. I pay for movies and dinner because it gives me something to do to get out of the house and I was raised to be a gentleman. There’s no game there. If some girl is dating me for my money then she can hit the road. I’m not naive enough to let that go on.
