What correlation does it have, Gasoline prices with the avatar in mylot.?. Lol:,,that is really funny.. i had in my previous avatar, a burning torch..glowing and glowing. continuously...With the prices shooting up day by day.. one can't even think in dreams of wasting oil and gas in any form. And this i find it as a reason for changing my avatar.. By the way,.. One common question that haunts every one.. what happened to the think tanks of the world.. where are these economists.. analysts.. gone...Gone in shell..Have they not fore casted the price hike.? What measures are up in their sleeve to ease this crunch situation?

Seems like when summer comes historically the price of gas has always been up. This is just one of those tatics made yearly by you know who. I can't wait until I get my electric battery operated bicycle. Forget about the segway it's too freakin' expensive.

I thoroughly enjoyed your reason for changing your avatar. It shows you have a streak of humour in you which is the best thing in a persons personality. By the way, how do you change your avtar. I would like to do so too, only I dont know how. As for prices of gasoline, it is worldwide. What can one government do to bring the prices down. This has to be a united effort of all the governments. All the think tanks have to meet some place and solve this problem, or it will just go out of hand. Thanks once again for a laugh early in the morning.

Hi saivenkaat802003! I did notice your new avatar and it is really cute. I guess, you are conserving more energy now with the bicycle than the burning torch which uses oil/gas to burn. haha.. I am not really sure what the economists are doing. Maybe their figures and plans are not that practical and realistic for the world and are only for record purposes. I guess, as far as our economists here in our country are concern they have been successful in assuring that the economic welfare of their own families are secured. haha.. However to be fair, we still have economists working in our government who are doing their best to ease the economic crisis our country is experiencing at the moment and they are promising us through media that we will be enjoying economic growth soon. I just wish that "soon" will come in my lifetime. haha.. Take care always and God bless you my friend!

I don't think it will be going down any time soon. It will keep going up why no one really knows only what the news tells you but there has to be more to the picture than all of a sudden gas has gone up this fast in just a few months. Now $4.00 a gallon and when will it stop; if it stops.

LOL to that avatar, my friend! :) I'm afraid the gasoline prices (and most of the goods) nowadays have rocketed by, thus, too far that we can't even pay for a can of soda without thinking that we wasted money. It's time for more practicality and be hopeful for a greater paycheck. Let's save our mother earth by lessening the cars in the streets and ride on buses or bikes instead, and we'll be more practical because it would be more thrifty to commute. Yes, it is indeed a horror to everyone of us. I wish the economy's future would be brighter (and more wallet-friendly).

I noticed that you changed your avatar yesterday. Now I know the reason and that's very funny in my opinion. If the gasoline price keeps increasing, I wonder whether you will change a walking avatar?:) I love China

hello saivenkaat802003, that was really funny as I got to laugh about it. But kidding aside, I do appreciate that. It's a sort of campaign to each mylot members to conserve energy especially now that the price of oil is soaring almost every week. It gives a message to everyone to think of some ways, creative ways to do so we would lessen the impact of this oil price problem in our lives. Cheers!
