Gasoline.

Watching the gasoline prices escalate in The U.S.A. over CNN earlier, really brought this thought to mind:
Here were many motorists looking for gas stations to fill up their vehicles, but what good was their money? Fuel resources were diminishing. Gas stations were, one by one, running out of gas.
What a lousy situation. Having money and yet...no fuel to buy.
Here in Malaysia, gasoline is known as Petrol, taken from the British word "PETROLEUM".
But call it what you want, it still is a major element which makes vehicles run...and makes airplanes fly.
What if, just what if...the world ran out of gasoline, someday. What would we be doing then?
Riding bicycles!
Perhaps it ain't so bad for me NOT to own a car this day, although I did own a car, once.
Well, the devastation of hurricane Katrina certainly has extended beyond the boundaries of homes and jobs.
