I look at it this way, the people in the gas lines right now are SHEEP
They are just following the heard.
Looking for 2 duck calls from Dominic Serio of Greenwood (ones for Novacaine)

Got a call today that said a friend was told that the state dept was going to put a freez on gas till after the hurican to stop this $#!+. Well no freez but i travel alot and I figure gas will go due to this. There were no lines so I filled up both trucks and got an extra thirty. I would use that in two days anyway.

When we were down there on the 3rd, some guy pulled a rifle on another fellow in a gas line at Gulfport.

Man, people are going nuts over gas.

Two weeks ago I tried to buy a gas can at the Home Depot near County Line Road in Jackson to carry some more gas back home. They were out of 5 gallon cans. So I asked if they had any smaller ones. The igmo working there looked at me like I was an idiot and says "No dude. Ain't you heard that there was a hurricane." I almost shot HIM.

Naaaa...the SHEEP are those spreading the rumors, not folks preparing for a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The sheep are the DA’s who waited too late to leave Houston; running out of fuel on the highway because they did not prepare, becoming a liability for the government to take care of by requiring fuel trucks for their pitiful unprepared selves.

Winning a bad bet does not make one smart. Somebody won betting the Field at the craps table today “somewhere.” Winning the dumb bet did not make he/she smart however, just lucky in spite of him or herself. Those running up and down the road “looking for dove fields” and “driving their SUV’s to Starkville” a few weeks ago are the same poor souls who will be begging for a few gallons of gas from those who prepared and stayed put when there is a real gas shortage. Of course that day probably won’t ever come will it? :wink:
