Win a Hybrid Car

With the economy as it is right now, it would be nice to have a vehicle that is not only reasonable on gas, but also easy on the environment. Right now Charter cable is giving away a new Honda Civic Hybrid just for registering with them or buying their services.

The only downfall to this terrific contest is, you must be in a Charter services area to win! There are no Charter services around here, so I am hoping one of my reader's wins! That would be so awesome!

Here are the Car's Details:
Polished Metal Metallic (My favorite color, damn them!)
Up to 45 mpg highway (I wish our truck would get this!)
Fabric interior (Warm in the winter and cool in the summer!)
USB Audio Interface (Nice!!!!!!)
110-hp, 8 valve, SOHC i-VTEC® 4-cylider engine (Guy Talk!)
Continuously variable transmission (See above!)
MP3 Auxiliary Input Jack (My hubby would find this cool!)

Okay, so to be honest I’ve never used Charter services and know nothing of what they are like. And as many places as I have lived, you would think, some freakin’ area would have Charter, but nope! I haven’t heard anything bad about them, however. Sooooo that’s good news!

Now, one thing. If you win, can you at least let me know. Leave a comment or something, please! I would love to know if you won the car!

Are Internet Prices on the Rise?

With the cost of gas prices on the rise, it really makes me wonder what's going to happen to the cost of internet. I'd imagine most people will not be able to travel to see family this summer, so for those who can't, there is always internet access.

However, I am now wondering if internet fees will go up as well. Post office stamps are already on the rise again, so rising the price of internet wouldn't really surprise me.

A few days ago someone was talking to a truck driver who told him that in order to fill up his truck, it cost him over $1000 dollars. That's a lot of money! What's even worse is gas prices are not even at it's all time high right now! I wonder what companies will do once gas prices do rise? I am sure somewhere in this insane world, there will be a riot or some form of strike.

Maybe those hybrid cars need to be a little bit less so that we can all afford one. Better yet, maybe they need to start making hybrid semi-trucks. Then again, hybrid uses electric and there goes our environment when that happens. So either we'll end up walking or riding in horse and buggy style or we're just screwed! Take your pick!!!!
