I really hate paying National Fuel Gas here in N.Y....it costs me about $300 a month to heat my tiny little 3 bedroom apartment! (winter months) It is such a rip off! But we gotta pay it!

how long do you think it takes too switch train cars around at each railyard hub the issue is not with loading or the same thing would happen when it is moved by truck but it doesn't and this is what you said imo, there should be very little interstate truck driving. trains are more efficient if it takes too long, that sounds like an area we need to improve if things move around on a train, that sounds like a loading issue. and really, how is what i said the 2nd time any different than the first? are you just bored or something?

My supposedly low cost gone green electric company who slams each customer with a fat fee just because they can't make enough energy on their own & they have to go buy it.

I feel ripped off by this traffic light. It sees me coming and turns yellow every time. I either speed up risking a ticket or slam on the brakes. After a minute I get to go again. I anticipate with dread that part of the road.

The marriage to my ex-wife. She screwed up 16 years of my live and cost me about a quarter million dollars. Wow. Bitter much? I wonder how she talks about you. She's a drud addict. She tell the men she is living how much she loves me as an excuse to keep the sex down. I'm part of her little scam now.
