Wed, 16 Oct 2002 23:41:05 -0400

do not feel to bad, I filled up in Delaware on the way down and refused to get gas until back in NJ :-) I guess the cost of full
services is not looking so bad lately :-) Their are some plus to this, I was traveling with 4 girls, had a fast trip because I
refused to stop for and pee break below Baltimore :-) I guess I should not joke, I was a goats town around my sisters.
