Reply #15: What is really sad is that my son has a friend whose Mom is unemployed [View All]

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

and she had to borrow money for gas and can't repay it now (which is fine..it's times like this when I wish I was wealthy). It really is heartbreaking. I used to joke about cigarettes being what they cost here in NY, people would start mugging others for cigarette money...It might not be a joke when it comes to gas.

As to heating costs this winter, I shudder as to what's going to happen here in the northeast.
