Your welcome, Osama.

I actually thought you were going to say Iran, last night I watched a Globe Trekker episode on Iran that Tivo taped for me. Very cheap petrol there. But not that cheap....

Only 5 cents a gallon in Iraq.
Let the flames begin!  |
The price is right, but the commute would be murder.

I think I filled up for $1.97 9/10 for 87 octane on Sunday. I think there are cheaper places around but I was in desperation as (per usual) I let the tank run down to fumes.

Back to the relocation aspect (sort of) has anyone travelled in the Middle East? The Iran thing I watch last night made it seem REALLY interesting. I would love to go there someday when (if?) things calm down in the region.

I am with you, imagine being in the birthplace of civilization, Persia. Mesopotamia. I mean how cool, wonder around where Noah did. be in the foorprint of the Hanging Gardens.
This place is so rich in history that it is unimaginanable the treasures that have been destryoed, looted over the years.
