Just figured I'd let you all know that I'm still around this forum, even thought I dont post much anymore. I've decided to take a long modelling break for I've been really busy driving my car and looking for a new job to pay for the increasing gas prices :rolleyes:. All the projects out there look great, and you should all keep up the good work. I'll post more often now, because I'm almost out of school. See you all around.

Tell me about it, it kind of sucks when almost 20% of the income goes to gas up the car here in Stockholm. Think of all models I could have done instead.

damnnnnn.............last week we hit $2.75 a gallon here in minnesota, then just yesterday i went to get gas and it was down to $1.85 for premium so i filled up on $15 witch at$2.75 whould have only gotten mt a half a tank. im sure they wont stay this low up here its ever changeing up here one days its ultra low (mostly on the days im broke) but then as soon as i get my paycheck go to put gas in the car the damn price's went up agian. i went to the twin cities (minniapolis/st. paul) last week and was hoping to get some cheap gas and almost passed out when i noticed gas was $3.50 a gallon, i said to myself "screw this" drove to a differnt gas staition to find they where $3.75, drove to another to find they where also at $3.75, at this time i couldent remember where i saw it for $3.50 at so i ended up paying $3.75 a gallon witch ended up spending half my trip money on one tank of gas witch cut my trip down to 1 of the 15 hobby shops i was going to visit that day.

1 gallon is 3.75 litres...so 1 litre is almost 1/4 of a gallon. I need about €50 (US$60) to fill my 45 ltr gas tank. :screwy: :screwy:

This would be just fine if the minimum wage wasn't €300 (US$360) PER MONTH!!

Here in Alaska its about $2 for unleaded. I remember when gas prices were around a $1 or so in Alaska. And that within 10 years! Oil rich state :grinno:

So, we in the U.S. pay too much for gas -- and you guys elsewhere pay way too much.
