Gas prices are more then a one sided dagger, it has many sides.

First is the obvious the price at the pump, secondly the increased food prices, last is something I didn't think about until I read about it in an article from Associated Press.

They talked to a waitress and a cab driver in Cincinnati, both are seeing less tips of late from there regulars.

How much more can cabby's take, people complain when they have to wait for a cab, if things don't get better soon the wait will get longer, much longer.



I had used a poll to ask the trivia question, what team started the tradition of the Gatorade shower?
The choices where the University of Florida, the New York Giants, the Notre Dame and two others.
There where 4 responses, 3 went for Florida, 1 for Notre Dame and none for the correct answer the New York Giants.
After a win late in the 1983 season that the Giants went 3-12-1, they dumped the bucket of Gatorade on Parcells in his first year as head coach.
In 1984 they where 9-7 and after every win came the shower and a tradition was born.
The Gatorade shower after Super Bowl 21 introduced it to the world.

The dumping of ice cold water down a coach's back(often in cold weather too)is ridiculous--If I were a coach and some idiot players tried that on me I would bitch slap em.
