Fw: something to think about at your next fill up

Another from Kirk head usher. Something familiar to me as my
Dad was in Gasoline and oil marketing with the old D-X products. I
remember when Gas was $0.12 pr gal. and the State began to tax
it. Pumps had signs saying: Gas is cheap, only the tax is high. Then
the Federal tax was instituted, perhaps as a WW II funding as well as
to reduce ussage if rationing did not do the job. There was plenty
here in OK, but short in the NE due to U-Boats sinking tankers.
And OK Governor Fallin wants to raise the tax now!!!

AFTER READING THIS GET OUT AND DRIVE YOUR OLD CAR
AND HAVE FUN

YOU THINK GASOLINE IS EXPENSIVE

This is priceless!
All these examples do NOT imply that gasoline is cheap; it just illustrates
how outrageous some prices are. You will be really shocked by the last one (at
least, I was)!!!
Think a gallon of gas is expensive?
This makes one think, and also puts things into perspective.

Diet Snapple, 16 oz , $1.29 ... $10.32 per gallon!
Starbuck's Reg. Coffee 16 oz, $2.10... $16.80 per gallon!
Lipton Ice Tea, 16 oz , $1.19 ... $9.52 per gallon!
Gatorade, 20 oz , $1.59 ..... $10.17 per gallon!
Ocean Spray, 16 oz , $1.25 .. $10.00 per gallon!
Brake Fluid, 12 oz , $3.15 .... $33.60 per gallon!
Vick's NyQuil, 6 oz , $8.35 ... $178.13 per gallon!
Pepto Bismol, 4 oz, $3.85 . $123.20 per gallon!
Whiteout, 7 oz , $1.39 ......... $25.42 per gallon!
Scope, 1.5 oz , $0.99 .....$84.48 per gallon!

And this is the REAL KICKER.
Evian water, 9 oz , $1.49 ...$21.19 per gallon! $21.19 for a gallon
of WATER!! and the buyers don't even know the source!! (Evian spelled
backwards is Naive.)
Ever wonder why computer printers are so cheap? So they can hook
you for the ink. Someone calculated the cost of the ink; you won't believe it
but it's true: $5,200 a gal. $5,200 A GALLON!!!

So, the next time you're at the pump, be glad your car doesn't run on water,
Scope, Whiteout, Pepto Bismol, NyQuil or, God forbid, Printer Ink!!!!!

And - If you don't pass this along to at least one person, fewer people will know......
