Feeling Ill ?
 
Are you feeling nauseous, shortness of breath, sweaty, chest pains, headache while at the gas pump ? You probably have the "Carownervirus".

Last night, I caught a variant of it; cartownervirus. We filled up the cart at the Marathon near Chitty Chatty and I almost asked if they offered payday loans to cover the costs.

Remembering filling up an empty tank on the VW Bug back in the mid 70’s for $3.00. That was for the entire tank, not per gallon. Just put $88 into my truck and it wasn’t empty.

"Carownervirus", or the new strain " Highprices "

Your house didn't cost half a mil either. Times change.

My wife myself and our little fur baby:doggie: rode the golfcart to Brownwood Sunday evening. Stopped at Walmart on the way home and topped off my tank. Over $10.

By the looks of the rear bumper on that Chevy Nova, either 1974-'75.
