Drivers Mixing Ethanol with Regular Gas to Save Some $$$

drivers in the midwest have started blending ethanol with regular gas to save at the pumps, since ethanol, in someplaces, is almost a dollar cheaper! and i dont blame them at all! i would so do that even though the EPA and auto manufacturers warn against it but you know what, times are hard! and the studies that they've done at Minnesota State University say that so far, they dont see any signs of damage. actually, they found that you get BETTER mileage from blending the two!

in my opinion, i've always thought that the auto manufacturers are in cahoots with the oil company and that's why they are saying it will damage your car. that's also why its taken them so long to come out with alternative fuel source cars. and what alternative fuel source cars we do have, are still dependent on gas when they don't need to be! they have the technology to make cars that dont require any gas at all but then they would be biting the hand that feeds them. it really makes me sick how people are scraping together every penny they have to get to where they need to go when they shouldn't have to. especially since last year the oil industry had the highest profits that have ever been recorded in history! companies will do whatever they have to to turn a profit, even if it includes stepping on the backs of the working class to get there....but then again, that is the american dream...

Heinz Commercial Pulled in the UK

so heinz made a commercial for its deli mayo which had a father, a deli cook, and two kids in a kitchen. during the commercial the kids refer to the deli cook as "mum" and at the end the deli cook sends the father off to work with a kiss. nothing offensive about that right? kind of cute, if you ask me. but no not to 202 people who complained about the ad and forced heinz to pull it. i think that people really need to get over themselves and realize that they are not the only people who live on this planet. we come in all shapes and types and if you dont like it then too bad! with gay marriage winning more ground as time goes on, people really need to get used to the idea that there will be that very scenario happening in kitchens all over the world! i still dont see why everyone still has a problem with gay love. love is love in my eyes. and really it doesnt involve anyone but the people who are in love with eachother. so to all those people that felt they needed to complain about the commercial, i only have one thing to say to you: if you didnt like it, all you had to do was turn the channel...

Coco the pet....skunk?

lawd have mercy! i ran into this video today while i was on LoveBScott.com. i really don't understand why people think that they can just make anything a pet. first it was a rock, now its a skunk. what are this little girl's parents thinking letting her keep a skunk in their house. There is no way that that would ever and i mean EVER happen in my house! Oh no ma'am! now don't get me wrong, i love animals but i HATE pets. i believe that animals should not be confined to live inside a cage in someone's home when their natural habitat is the wild. it just seems like animal cruelty to me...
