I dont think I can remember any thread here that hasnt gone off topic.
Which reminds me (I have no idea why). June is almost over. We should probably start thinking of a theme for July?

Meh. It's mostly my fault. I'll try to stay on topic from now on. I just get to talking about some other things, sometimes.

I personally think that what makes most of the threads here good is the fact that they do go off topic. Otherwise we're just watching Shinizo spin his wheels. Weeeeeeeeeeee. That was fun the first 2 million times......
Or just watching a pre-teen drama.........and a bad one at that.

I was having fun with the off topics but really what bothers me if when the threads turn into the SAME off topic stuff. I don't mind if they range to different areas. In the old day a thread could turn into anything. Now they seem to go in the same direction. Not a big deal though to me at least.

I don't think we should go strickly on topic, but at least try to not go too far off topic, since I do agree myself it makes things interesting.
Gas is crazy, almost a buck here. I don't know why the auto/oil industry won't work together on a better source of transportation energy. Unfortunatly it's all about the cash...

Yeah but a gallon is like 3.8 litres
You guys get a good deal on gas, it just sounds more expensive.

Sweet Jesus that is dirt cheap. Thats only 60 cent (euro). Our petrol is hanging at around a Euro at the moment.

Let's do some math now, shall we?
1 Gallon = 3.7854118 Litres
1 Gallon = 229 cents US
229 cents US = 280 Cents Canadian (thanks to bush, the difference is not big)
So 280 Cents / 3.7854118 Litres = 73.9 cents Canadian
so 1 litre is 73.9 cents in the US.
Not sure about UK though, there it's probably worse then us, like 2 bucks a litre or something.

I realized that I don't have a job.
