Places To Go (Update, bump)

It will be interesting to see how successful this is:

Area drivers will soon be able to fill up with gasoline made from "terror-free oil."

A gas station about to open near 129th and Q streets is named Terror Free Oil, and the idea is to offer consumers petroleum products from countries that do not sponsor terror.

Not wanting to be duped into driving far out of my way to get guilt-free gas, I checked the website for these people to see just who they consider to be "terror-free." I was thinking, of course, of Venezuela. Fortunately, Citgo is listed on the bad side.

I'll definitely be paying them a visit once they open.

Update: Fellow Nebrasktonian Angela is running a blog carnival on the subject.

1 We don't have a Sinclair in town anymore, and the closest Flying J that I know of is about 250 miles from here. That kinda sucks

2 If Bush had a ball sack he would have back when gas was 3+ a gallon and the pansies were screaming how the economy didn' t grow "enough" jobs, he would have stood up made a presidential order decree whatever opening Anwar & the Gulf of Mexico to full alt oil drilling.
 
Immediate result would have been drop in prices by OPEC to try to get US to change our mind on replacing thier as*es and thousands upon thousands of short term and long term jobs added to drill then run support the rigs.  Not to mention in the long run Billions of extra dollars added to OUR ECONOMY not the foreigners.
 
As a bone to the pansies maybe they could have estimated the price saving in the gulf oil due to not having to ship it and drop that on the Gulf Rigs as a Eco tax.  Or my preference just watch the OPEC scwirm to compete.

3 Yep! When Bush caused Katrina which destroyed oil production in the Gulf and had 500,000 people running generators for electricity and driving 100 miles for food and more fuel he should have done just that. Fuck with the little bit we could get. Dirty old Bush. We need a lefturd president because they never cause hurrincanes.

4 Sinclair doesn't buy oil from wogs, so that's where I go now. The Terrorr free station isn't very close to my house, but I'll get there when I can.
