COSTCO GAS.
The line is usually pretty long but worth it if you like saving money.
$3.91 for 91 when I filled up this morning. I once asked the guy there what kind of gas they use, and he said it was top quality ...comparable to Mobil. The gas at Costco is always at least 15-20 cents cheaper.
I fill up on average once every week and a half.
52 weeks in a year: 52 / 1.5 = fill up 35 times a year
The tank is 17 gallons. I am saving (17 x .15) = $2.55 everything I fill up.
35 x $2.55 = $89.25 savings per year.
hmmmmmmmm. guess that is not much after all. but at least that pays for the Costco membership!

anyway, I am now on my SECOND Moto Q, and I can't stand it, because the damn software keeps messing up. It freezes, turns itself off and on, gets lines on the screen, loses battery power at a tremendous rate, and kicks me off internet explorer when I try to open some websites. When the first one was doing it, I took it back under warranty and got another, and now it is doing al that stuff again. what a POS. I may have to go the BB route myself.

The video doesn't do them justice. They look better in person.

When's the last time any of you have been to Disneyland or even magic mountain. A number of my patients (especially the jr and sr. high school kids) have gone or are going to one of those amusement parks. Haven't been to magic mountain in like 12 years, back when superman opened..last time I went to disneyland was when california adventure opened up..wifey and I made a weekend out of it down there. (since driving down to anaheim is like driving across the country 
)
Guess my e60 is my roller coaster now...
