How to save money on gas

I've heard the rumblings of plenty of you in Blogland about the spike in gasoline costs. In truth it's all I appear to be told about recently. But at least it keeps you from rumbling about the infrequency of my columns and articles. Nevertheless , I have decided to try and help you to get thru this crisis by freely providing : three ways to fight Rising Gas Prices!

One. Don't Drive Your Car This is, naturally, the most clear solution. If you never take the old Plymouth out the drive, then it will not matter that at current gas costs it takes $125 to fill up the thirty gallon gas tank, or that you just get about 2.51 miles to the gallon. If you never drive, you couldn't care less. Naturally, I know what you are going to say. "But Joe, I have places I want to go-like work. And the youngsters have school and football practice. And then there's grocery buying and yoga lesssons and dinner at the Richardsons and blah blah blah and...." Ok, I am getting the point.

Not everybody can sit round the house writing not-so-funny articles and scouring the Web for Drew Barrymore photographs like me. I understand that a few of you have a life. But simply because you do not drive your own automobile does not mean that you can't get around. The answer?

Two. Carpool It's appears very simple now does it not. Rather than using your gas-Use Somebody Elses! Have somebody else pay $5.50 a gallon for gas to take your youngsters to college. Make some other person dip into their retirement fund in order that they can cover the gas bill wanted to get you to the office and back every day. Make some other person get a second job so they can have a full tank of gas in their SUV when your child wishes to cruise the mall. It is so straightforward. Naturally, the theory behind carpooling is that everybody takes turns driving. So in an ordinary carpool situation you would finally be needed to use your automobile and spend your cash driving others around. But this isn't a Standard Carpool Situation, this is a Joe Ward Carpool Situation ( JWCPS ). In a JWCPS you avoid using your own auto by making it so the other carpool participators would rather walk shoeless on 120 degree asphalt than ride with you. You achieve this by :

( a ) never washing or cleaning your auto. Leave it looking and smelling like the county rubbish heap.

( b ) Have the worst behaved kid in your own family sitting in the front seat at every point. Feed the child a lot of candy so he / she's always superhyper.

( c ) Refuse to talk about anything in your automobile except your spouses bad washing habits, bodily liquids, hang nails, chest hair, and so on.

( d ) Only play reggae music on the radio. Loud! You should not have to fret about anyone needing to ride with you ever again.

Three. Ride the Bus / Subway Many towns have a mass transit system that is a substitute for driving your own car. If you live in a town that does not have one don't worry-you can always move. Naturally, riding public transportation does have one or two flaws, but these can be simply overcome if you follow these easy axioms : one. Irrespective of what occurs never, ever make eye contact with anybody. Making eye contact is an invite for somebody to rob you. Two. Irrespective of what occurs never, ever give up your seat to any one. This is seen as weakness, and will definitely be taken as an invite to rob you. Three. Regardless of how lured you are never, ever kick off a conversation with the person sitting next or across from you. This is extraordinarily aggravating and can be taken as an invite for somebody to rob you.

Or worse, for somebody to chat back.

Four. Always ensure you are alert to get off and on at the right stop. Getting off at the incorrect stop can cause speedy mugging.

Five. Never, ever take youngsters with you on public transport. Fellow passengers hate youngsters. Kids make you definite mug victim material. Well, there you have it. Three ways to handle rising gas costs. Hopefully, you'll be ready to use these strategies to keep from spending twice your vehicle's Blue Book price just going to Walmart. Hopefully, next time your friends are bellyaching and ranting about the mounting gas costs you'll be able to just kick back and grin, content as the issue no longer concerns you. Hopefully, I have once again helped my faithful readers in a period of crisis. And all I ask in return as a straightforward thank you next time you see me. Simply make sure we aren't on the bus. I'd hate to need to mug you...
