It's better to have beer in hand than gas in tank. (Unknown)

Okay, so you know I am a polite person (generally). I rarely name names and I rarely get mad. But this time is different. Please avoid the Sunoco at Duncan Manor in the North Hills. Today I had an incident where a gas pump did not shut off automatically and then spewed gas all over the ground and my shoes. I told the clerk and she said she'd take care of it, but folks, this is a hazardous toxic substance. She was a little too lackadasical for my taste...but, I was in a hurry and more concerned for the next customer and wanted to get out of there.

So then I had to drive 20 minutes to the chiropractor, with the gas on my shoes and smelling up my car. Today was my re-evaluation at the chiropractor (I have graduated to one session a week, WOO HOO), so I was there for more than 20 minutes...And then I had to drive 20 minutes to the Giant Eagle and then I finally got home (around 7 pm, an hour and 45 minutes after the spill) I peeled off my shoes, socks and went upstairs to get a different set of pants.

The key when you have a gas spill is NOT to wash the item, but to let it air out, as gas and water don't mix!!!! So, since my car needs airing out, I am taking it to Sally's overnight (as she has a garage) where my car will air out, with the windows down, so as to not get rain in (it's still misting here) and get burgled. If you don't believe me, about the dangers, read this article.

So don't go for the cheapest price if you don't like the store. I generally buy Sunoco, but never Citgo, since I found out they are owned by a South American goon. I didn't like this station before but I was trolling for the lowest price and $2.26 was it...trust your instincts, shop well and BE SAFE!
