MRJ said to start a new thread on this one.

My Dad told me quite a few years ago that when he was working in the thirty's he got $1.00 a day. Gas cost $ .20 a gallon. So it took him a weeks wages to fill his 30 gallon tank with gas. "So never complain to me about the high cost of gas until it takes you a weeks wages to fill your tank" was how he finished the conversation.

I guess I could complain now as it takes $75 to $ 85 to fill my pickup with diesel and I don 't think I make that much per week! :shock: :lol:

Might be why I prefer to ride a horse. I can raise his "fuel". Maybe I'll post a poem on this order on the other site.
