Year Of 2011 Its Going To Be Around $7.509 Per Gal,And Predicted To Be $12.009
Want To Know How to Run Your Car On WATER as FUEL, Laugh At Rising Gas and Diesel Costs, While Reducing Emissions Preventing Global Warming? Generate Free Energy: BOOST the EFFICIENCY of your poorly designed engine! And Truckers it also works for Big Rigs too. Its 2008 and Gas is $ 4.00 a Gal, Year 2011 will hit $ 7.50 and predicted to hit $ 12.00 a Gal , Can You afford this or a $ 50,000 Hybrid?
You can make Your car a Hybrid for less than $500.00
Did you know that you can convert your car or truck to a water-burning vehicle (Water Hybrid)?
is a Do-It-Yourself, affordable and SIMPLE technology. Water is supplemental to gasoline or diesel fuel - I have doubled fuel economy (61 MPG) in my Toyota Corolla 1999, and many more have doubled or even tripled their mileage. Too good to be true? Read on...
You may already know that water is supplemental to gasoline (petrol) or diesel fuel. However it is possible and VERY EASY to extract energy from water to run your car on water too.
We have water-to-energy converters running in all our vehicles since 2006. YOU CAN, TOO! I'm about to show you a SIMPLE technology you can have right now, called Water4Gas . It's one of the most PRACTICAL free-energy devices, marked by extraordinary simplicity and effectiveness.
Its NOT my invention. And it's not new. Based on old "forgotten" US Patents we have developed devices that use a little electricity out of your car/truck battery, to separate water into a gas called "HHO" (2 parts Hydrogen + 1 Oxygen). HHO, also called Brown's Gas, Water-Fuel or Hydroxy, burns beautifully and provides TONS of energy - while the end product is just WATER! Mobile Magazine says: HHO provides the atomic power of Hydrogen, while maintaining the chemical stability of water.
DID YOU KNOW: Pound for pound HHO GAS IS 3 TIMES MORE POTENT THAN GASOLINE!!! HHO is a fast growing trend for boosting performance and MPG.

MY FELLOW AMERICANS
Mr.McCain, Mr. Obama, I'm Checking to see which one of you have the biggest Balls?
WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENTAL CANDIDATE, DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN, GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?
"My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed. Since congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete.
This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq This action will be complete within 30 days.
It is now time to begin the reckoning.
Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict.
This list is short. The United Kingdom , Spain , Bulgaria , Australia , and Poland are some of the countries listed there.
The other list contains every one not on the first list. Most of the world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening.
Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely.
The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war.
THEN EVERY YEAR THERE AFTER IT'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.
The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world Hellholes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.
Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France .
In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home.
On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth.
Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France or maybe China .
I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France , Germany and Russia .
Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bonne chance, mez amies.
I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York !
A special note to our neighbors.
Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not pissing us off for a change.
Mexico is also on List 2.
Its president and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra thousand tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put 'em? Yep, border security.
Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting now.
We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil in Alaska - which will take care of this country's oil needs for decades to come.
If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there.
It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism.
I answer them by saying, "damn tootin."
Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America It is time to eliminate homelessness in America . To the nations on List 1,
A final thought. Thank you guys. We owe you and we won't forget.
To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might want to learn to speak Arabic.
God bless America . Thank you and good night."
If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English, thank a soldier.

Love And Help Your Neighbor,Cause Your GOVERNMENT DON'T GIVE A RATS ASS
Good Morning, And it is a good morning now that I got my load and away from all the destruction and heart ache from a town that was recent devastated by a tornado a few weeks ago in NW Oklahoma. I had a very bad day, You watched on TV how these People had their world Ripped apart by the forces of nature. And how every dream they ever had of their families growing up and marring and continuing to stay and make their town bigger and better.
I pulled into the town of Picher Oklahoma yesterday to pick of a load, and knowing that this town was hit by a tornado a few weeks ago, But not knowing what to expect.
It look like a war zone, clothing, toys, furniture, cars, strowed for what looked like miles, My brain was going crazy where are all the people?
And the little kids that once played in these yards, no dogs barking, no birds singing, only death and destruction.(No I didn't see anyone dead thank goodness)
My mind was thinking about all the places in the world that have had tragedies like this that we have helped, And the town of Picher is no more.......
And we run to help everyone but our own and none of these places lift a finger to help us in time of need.
I talk to some of the people that worked at this place where I loaded, All young guys that have families there and it broke my heart to think that their dreams will never come true in this town.
This one guy said I used to live over there (pointing to a house) he said my 2 small boy was playing in the yard and they seen the tornado, and ran across the street and jumped in my neighbors cellar just in time.
The house started collapsing around them, but they are Ok.
and the stories just kept coming....
I ask where is all the people that are suppose to be helping to put this town back together, and giving aid to these people?
NOW I'M REALLY PISSED OFF!!!!!!!
We the American People pay taxes and pay dearly and help everyone in the World
when things like this happen.
These Guys told me, ya the National Guard and FEMA rolled in and stayed 1 day,
And This guy told me that FEMA gave him $800.00 for his house, no this is not a
typo , yes I said $800.00
1 LOUSY DAY, NOT A WEEK OR A MONTH OR A YEAR OR FOR HOWEVER LONG IT TAKES TO GET THESE PEOPLE'S LIFE BACK IN ORDER. UNBELIEVABLE......
ITS TIME FOR PEOPLE TO WAKE UP....
WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THIS HAPPENS IN YOUR NEIGHBOR HOOD?
WE NEED TO HELP EACH OTHER AS THOUGH WE ARE ALL FAMILY, PRAY FOR EACH OTHER, BAND TOGETHER AND BANG A FEW NAILS TOGETHER AND TELL THE GOVERNMENT TO GET OFF THEIR ASS AND HELP THESE PEOPLE IN OUR COUNTRY.
BECAUSE OUR GOVERNMENT DON'T GIVE A RATS ASS ABOUT US EXCEPT
WHEN THEY WANT OUR TAXES AND OR OUR VOTES. OUR SYSTEM SUCKS
BUT ITS THE BEST IN THE WORLD.
This is what it look like where I was at.
This is footage of that awful day in May 2008

The Price Of Fuel And The Security Of Your Country
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON--Gas rationing
Gas rationing in the 80's worked even though we grumbled about it. It might even be good for us...
The Saudis are boycotting American goods. We should return the favor!
An interesting thought is to boycott their GAS. Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia. Just buy from gas companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis.
Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my friends!
I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil companies are the best to buy gas from and which major companies import Middle Eastern oil.
These companies import Middle Eastern oil:
Shell.......................... 205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco.........144,332,000 barrels
Exxon /Mobil..............130,082,000 barrels
Marathon/Speedway..117,740,000 barrels
Amoco..........................62,231,000 barrels
Citgo Gas comes from South America, from a Dictator who hates Americans.
Do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION! (Oil is now $100-$105 a barrel) Some of the Citgo's are being renamed to Petro Plus.
The latest price is a record high ($105.00 a barrel)
Here are some large companies that
DO NOT import Middle Eastern oil:
Sunoco................ 0 barrels
Conoco................ 0 barrels
Sinclair................ 0 barrels
BP/Phillips.......... 0 barrels
Hess.................... 0 barrels
ARC0. ................. 0 barrels
Also: Pilot, Flying J, Love's, RaceTrac, Valero
All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers. It's really simple to do.
Now, don't wimp out at this point.... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!
I am sending this note to about thirty people.
If each of you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000) ... and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people,we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers!!!
If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten
friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted!
If it goes one level further, you guessed it ..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. How long would all that take?
If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people within one day, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next eight days!

Invasion of Mexican Trucks
On a More Serious Note: Jim Hoffa, (Teamster General President) Sent Me an email today, and all US Truckers need to see it........
Dear John Chambers, I don't have to tell you that opening our border to unsafe Mexican Trucks is a bad idea. I don't have to convince Congress either. Both chambers voted overwhelmingly last year to pull the plug on Transportation Secretary Mary Peters dangerous plan to let unsafe Mexican trucks on our highways. But Peters continues to ignore the law. She is spending taxpayer money, your money, without constitutional authority. The Teamsters don't think Mary Peters should get away with such blatant lawlessness. That's why we launched a campaign on Thursday to remove her from office.
Jim Hoffa, (Teamster General President)
And in reply I sent Mr Hoffa an email thanking him and his staff for what they are doing to help all of us.

End to cross-border truck program sought By Paul M. Krawzak COPLEY NEWS SERVICE February 7, 2008 WASHINGTON – The Teamsters have launched a blistering radio and direct-mail campaign calling for the ouster of U.S. Transportation Secretary Mary Peters, whom they blame for continuing a program that allows Mexican trucks to travel throughout the United States. AdvertisementThe campaign marks the latest effort to end the controversial, five-month-old cross-border trucking project promoted by the Bush administration. In the radio ad, which will begin running today on the self-described “progressive” Air America radio network, the blaring of a horn and sound of a crash precede a call to “fire” Peters. The ad says that Peters has ignored a law passed last year to end the program. The ad is expected to run for one week. The closest Air America affiliate station to San Diego listeners appears to be KTLK-AM in Los Angeles, according to the network's Web site. Teamster leadership said it is firing off 250,000 letters to union members who live along the U.S.-Mexican border or haul freight, in an effort to generate opposition to the program. The union also is targeting Peters in her home state of Arizona, where the transportation chief has been mentioned as a possible gubernatorial candidate in 2010. “Part of what we want to do is make it clear that there is a political price for doing this,” said Teamsters spokeswoman Leslie Miller. Brian Turmail, a Department of Transportation spokesman, was dismissive of the attack. “It's the kind of thing you do when the facts aren't on your side,” he said. “Considering the source, it's pretty ironic.” The administration refused to end the pilot program after Congress passed a law to deny funding for it. Administration officials said a loophole in the law allows existing programs to continue. Opponents have filed suit in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco to stop the program. Oral arguments are scheduled for Tuesday. Several lawmakers who oppose the trucking program looked into the possibility of a congressional lawsuit against the executive branch, but they were advised by attorneys that it would be unlikely to succeed, they said. Opponents contend that the administration has failed to ensure that Mexican drivers meet the same safety standards as U.S. drivers, creating a danger on the nation's highways. U.S. officials counter that every Mexican driver must pass a safety audit before joining the pilot program. The administration views the pilot project as the first step toward a wider opening of the border to trucks from both nations, a move it says is required under the North American Free Trade Agreement. Both nations' economies will benefit, it says.
Breaks Law: Opens Border To Unsafe Mexican Trucks Transportation Secretary Mary Peters is the latest member of the Bush administration to break the law: She continues to give dangerous Mexican trucks access to our highways despite overwhelmingly bipartisan measures passed by Congress and signed by President Bush. What would happen if you broke the law, or violated company policy? You'd be fired! So should Peters.
Its time that All Truckers Wake Up....
If you care at all about the Safety of Your Families and the Future of the Trucking Industry NOW is the Time to Act on this Issue, Your jobs are at stake and You and Your Family Safety Depends on it.... Send Congress A Message, Make them understand we will not accept this.
To send this message to congress,
I am angered that Transportation Secretary Mary Peters is endangering lives by opening our border to unsafe Mexican trucks. Congress overwhelmingly passed a law with bipartisan support and signed by President Bush to stop her lawlessness and lies. Mary Peters is not above the law and she certainly does not have the right to ignore Congress and the will of the American people. I am asking you, as my representative in Washington, to stop the Bush administration's dangerous experiment and put an end to the lies. I urge you to find Mary Peters in contempt of Congress.

The administration views the pilot project as the first step toward a wider opening of the border to trucks from both nations, a move it says is required under the North American Free Trade Agreement. Both nations' economies will benefit, it says.
Breaks Law: Opens Border To Unsafe Mexican Trucks Transportation Secretary Mary Peters is the latest member of the Bush administration to break the law: She continues to give dangerous Mexican trucks access to our highways despite overwhelmingly bipartisan measures passed by Congress and signed by President Bush. What would happen if you broke the law, or violated company policy? You'd be fired! So should Peters.
Its time that All Truckers Wake Up....
If you care at all about the Safety of Your Families and the Future of the Trucking Industry NOW is the Time to Act on this Issue, Your jobs are at stake and You and Your Family Safety Depends on it.... Send Congress A Message, Make them understand we will not accept this.
To send this message to congress,
I am angered that Transportation Secretary Mary Peters is endangering lives by opening our border to unsafe Mexican trucks. Congress overwhelmingly passed a law with bipartisan support and signed by President Bush to stop her lawlessness and lies. Mary Peters is not above the law and she certainly does not have the right to ignore Congress and the will of the American people. I am asking you, as my representative in Washington, to stop the Bush administration's dangerous experiment and put an end to the lies. I urge you to find Mary Peters in contempt of Congress.

Truckers Last Letter
A Trucker's Last Letter, A Must Read.....
Steamboat Mountain is a man-killer, and truckers who haul the Alaska Highway treat it with respect. Particularly in the winter, the road curves and twists over the mountain and sheer cliffs drop away sharply from the icy road. Countless trucks and truckers have been lost there and many more will follow their last tracks.
On one trip up the highway, I came upon the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and several wreckers winching the remains of a semi up the steep cliff. I parked my rig and went over to the quiet group of truckers who were watching the wreckage slowly come into sight.
One of the Mounties walked over to us and spoke quietly
"I'm sorry, " he said, "the driver was dead when we found him. He must have gone over the side two days ago when we had a bad snowstorm. There weren't many tracks. It was just a fluke that we noticed the sun shining off some chrome."
He shook his head slowly and reached into his parka pocket.
"Here, maybe you guys should read this. I guess he lived for a couple of hours until the cold got to him."
I'd never seen tears in a cop's eyes before - I always figured they'd seen so much death and despair they were immune to it, but he wiped tears away as he handed me the letter. As I read it, I began to weep. Each driver silently read the words, then quietly walked back to his rig. The words were burned into my memory and now, years later, that letter is still as vivid as if I were holding it before me. I want to share that letter with you and your families.

My Darling Wife,
This is a letter that no man ever wants to write, but I'm lucky enough to have some time to say what I've forgotten to say so many times. I love you, sweetheart.
You used to kid me that I loved the truck more than you because I spent more time with her. I do love this piece of iron - she's been good to me. She's seen me through tough times and tough places. I could always count on her in a long haul and she was speedy in the stretches. She never let me down.
But you want to know something? I love you for the same reasons. You've seen me through the tough times and places, too.
Remember the first truck? That run down 'ol' cornbinder' that kept us broke all the time but always made just enough money to keep us eating? You went out and got a job so that we could pay the rent and the bills. Every cent I made went into the truck while your money kept us in food with a roof over our heads.
I remember that I complained about the truck, but I don't remember you ever complaining when you came home tired from work and I asked for money to go on the road again. If you did complain, I guess I didn't hear you. I was too wrapped up with my problems to think of yours.
I think now of all the things you gave up for me. The clothes, the holidays, the parties, the friends. You never complained and somehow I never remembered to thank you for being you.
When I sat having coffee with the boys, I always talked about my truck, my rig, my payments. I guess I forgot you were my partner even if you weren't in the cab with me. It was your sacrifices and determination as much as mine that finally got the new truck.
I was so proud of that truck I was bursting. I was proud of you too, but I never told you that. I took it for granted you knew, but if I had spent as much time talking with you as I did polishing chrome, perhaps I would have.
In all the years I've pounded the pavement, I always knew your prayers rode with me. But this time they weren't enough.
I'm hurt and it's bad. I've made my last mile and I want to say the things that should have been said so many times before. The things that were forgotten because I was too concerned about the truck and the job.
I'm thinking about the lonely nights you spent alone, wondering where I was and how things were going. I'm thinking of all the times I thought of calling you just to say hello and somehow didn't get around to. I'm thinking of the peace of mind I had knowing that you were at home with the kids, waiting for me.
The family dinners where you spent all your time telling your folks why I couldn't make it. I was busy changing oil; I was busy looking for parts; I was sleeping because I was leaving early the next morning. There was always a reason, but somehow they don't seem very important to me right now.
When we were married, you didn't know how to change a light bulb. Within a couple of years, you were fixing the furnace during a blizzard while I was waiting for a load in Florida. You became a pretty good mechanic, helping me with repairs, and I was mighty proud of you when you jumped into the cab and backed up over the rose bushes.
I was proud of you when I pulled into the yard and saw you sleeping in the car waiting for me. Whether it was two in the morning or two in the afternoon you always looked like a movie star to me. You're beautiful, you know. I guess I haven't told you that lately, but you are.
I made lots of mistakes in my life, but if I only ever made one good decision, it was when I asked you to marry me. You never could understand what it was that kept me trucking. I couldn't either, but it was my way of life and you stuck with me. Good times, bad times, you were always there. I love you, sweetheart, and I love the kids.
My body hurts but my heart hurts even more. You won't be there when I end this trip. For the first time since we've been together, I'm really alone and it scares me. I need you so badly, and I know it's too late.
It's funny I guess, but what I have now is the truck. The damned truck that ruled our lives for so long. This twisted hunk of steel that I lived in and with for so many years. But it can't return my love. Only you can do that.
You're a thousand miles away but I feel you here with me. I can see your face and feel your love and I'm scared to make the final run alone.
Tell the kids that I love them very much and don't let the boys drive any truck for a living.
I guess that's about it, honey. My God, but I love you very much. Take care of yourself and always remember that I loved you more than anything in life. I just forgot to tell you
I love you, Bill
