Thought of leaving for someone else? Nope.
Thought of leaving? Yep. Almost did a few years ago.

u.s. demands greater oil output, lower prices.
"finance ministers from the united states and other major industrialized countries, hoping to affect the outcome of a battle within the organization for the petroleum exporting countries, formally demanded yesterday that oil-exporting nations raise production and lower prices to a level 'that is consistent with lasting economic prosperity,'" the new york times reports.
allowing Americans to keep their gas-guzzlers at a price
Americans already pay 'a price' for their gas-guzzlers, in the form of initial purchase prices, taxes and penalties, and in the higher on-going costs to own such vehicles (more fuel costs, more fuel taxes, higher annual licensing fees, etc.). I don't have a problem with that. The stuff that rubs my butt raw is when someone comes along & declares the owners of SUVs to be pathetic, ignorant, and self-absorbed ... even though I don't own an SUV, it still seems judgemental and condescending to toss such words around.

Forming oil in a few years? No, Simon. That wasn't what I was trying to say. I'm sure that the process takes quite a long time when done naturally. Rather, my thought was that plants and animals have been dying throughout the ages, and if that's where oil truly originates ... then it would seem as though more petroleum would be in process, right?
And as for SUVs being an insanity, Realist ... I think there's an easy way to reduce the consumer demand for SUVs: bring back the full size automobile. When was the last time you saw a Caprice or a Roadmaster or a Country Squire station wagon on the showroom floor? Something with enough room to seat a family comfortably, with sufficient horsepower & torque to haul the load?

OK. I have to wonder about this one rom one of your links, Simon:
80 percent of car and SUV owners strongly that automakers should make safety changes to SUVs that would make the roads safer for car occupants
If I read this right, a bunch of whine-butts driving little econo-boxes want safer SUVs to slam into them?

where does almost all petrol come from? Yup, dead plants and animals from millions of years ago.
Silly me! You mean that plants & animals stopped dying millions of years ago? and none have died since? No wonder there's the prediction of an oil shortage on the horizon!
i am a newbie to the site.
i was born an raised a jw.
shortly after marriage, my husband and i decided we no longer wanted to be part of the organization.
how does everyone else cope with being shunned by family?
Well, I got used to not seeing some members of my family. It's kinda sad in some respects, but it's their choice. And maybe I don't have it too bad, because it's mainly my sister & one uncle that are still j-w's. Pretty much everyone else has either been disfellowshiped or has just walked away.
And of those two, the one the really gets under my skin is my uncle, who lives about 60 miles away. I occasionally go to that town because he & one of my cousins (now a born-again type) live there, just a few blocks away from each other. And my uncle always gives me an earfull about how I should return to the KH. I listen politely & talk with him, because I know that he really believes in this stuff as 'the truth'. He's doing what he believes in his heart to be the right thing to do.
But when I get ready to come home, he always says "Don't be a stranger. Come see us again soon." And THAT'S the part that irks me. It's not like the highway has only an eastbound lane. (Otherwise, how would I get back home, right?) For the life of me, I can't figure out why he never finds the way west to my town, and never picks up the phone to call. Is it my deodorant or something?

Maybe we'll agree to disagree, Realist. I agree that Jesus must have been a reasonable guy ... the scriptures say he liked hanging out with his buds, liked travelling, liked to have an occasional nip of the grape, and went fishing. What better vehicle for a guy like JC than an SUV? Maybe a Fleetwood, such as the one pictured below ... it's diesel powered, so it's more fuel efficient.
The way I see it, if Princess or anyone else can afford two SUVs & their fuel, then more power to her. After all, JC was a carpenter's son. You know how much a union construction worker can make?

it is your attitude that is ruining this planet! you need two SUVs?
No offense, but you sound kinda like the "What Would Jesus Drive?" crowd. Personally? I think he'd drive a big Chevy Suburban or a Ford Excursion or maybe even the original Humvee ... room for all 12 of his buddies, great traction on those unpaved desert roads, and plenty of towing capacity for the fishing boat.

OK, Ball. If I'm reading the figures correctly, the vehicle has a top speed of less than 30 MPH and lacks the load capacity to carry even my small family of two adults & two children, let alone any luggage they need for even a short weekend trip? What does the owner of such a vehicle do when they want to shop at the lumberyard or go camping for the weekend? I'll stick with my GMC.
great.. they smell good.
they give you that warm fuzzy feeling all over.. they are so cute when they make the baby laugh.. they have that one shirt that all holey but cant live without.. .
here is one for all the men in the world that are truly great, and deserve a big hug and kiss!.
we also love your brains
Yeah, but which one? We tend to do our thinking with two different heads, but only have enough blood in our bodies to operate one at a time.
