I would just like to point something out that has been bugging me. Everyone is all for boycotting BP right now, which is understandable. But 90% of the BP gas stations in this country are franchised owned, which means they really have nothing to do with the corporate offices. By boycotting, you are just hurting a small business owner.

True, mostly. But all franchises have to pay a franchise fee, usually in the form of a percentage of generated revenue.

What makes me sad is that if you read comments on various sites concerning this disaster, one thing remains as a constant: People seem not only as though they could care less, but they even seem to want the ocean to die!?

Wow...Fuck humans.

You're still fucking over a small business owner though, who had nothing to do with the oil spill, but just happens to have a franchise.

This is sooo horrible. I've heard about it but I haven't read up enough on it.... Why hasn't the oil been stopped from spilling out yet exactly??

      I'm thinking I'm going to be moving to AZ, soon! Can't wait! I friggin' love it here! The heat doesn't bother me at all and the best part? NO SNOW!!! (S.N.O.W. - Shit  No One Wants)   Been staying in Bullhead City where the kids and grandkids live. Next, we're going to the wife's cousin's which is a ways North of Kingman, in the middle of nowhere, where we actually plan to move.   I really like Bullhead. It's a nice little town. Not overcrowded like Colorado Springs has become, at all. Very light traffic, reasonable prices on everything, low taxes, etc. The river offers a lot to do, with a lot of beaches and campgrounds all around it.   But yeah even though we've been over 110º-115º F just about every day,  I can handle it!  What I can't handle anymore, is snow and being cold. Just tired of it. Give me the desert over a blizzard any day!

      Nope, we wasn't doing anything. I didn't want to go by myself.  I ended up doing karaoke here. It would of been a perfect day to go, though.
