Black Gold vs. Black Angus

Gas Prices (Small)  With the price of gas through the roof, we thought we’d take a look at what a few other liquids cost by the gallon.

With gasoline seemingly turned from commodity to luxury, it comes as no surprise that American wallets are feeling somewhat pinched. Getting to and from work costs more than ever before. Ditto sitting in the drive-thru. Filling up a Hummer a few times costs as much as the penis extension Hummer drivers desperately need. Indeed, motorists from coast to coast can be found pumpside, scratching their heads and asking, “Don’t we own Iraq?” and “Can’t we drill where them Eskimos is?” The answers, of course, are soon and soon, respectively. Until that time comes, we can all seek solace in the fact that although the price of a gallon of gas has risen to staggering new heights, it’s really nothing compared to a gallon of Jennifer Lopez’s Glow. Or bull spooge. For the savvy shopper, here’s a list of other daily essentials priced at the gallon.
