I'm planning to pull a bank robbery in order to support my boating habit.
I would prefer to do the job here in Arizona due to rising gas prices. If we're not careful, it's entirely possible that all our profits would/could be absorbed in overhead if we have to travel too far.
The plan is to do the heist sometime prior to Memorial Day as I typically burn at least 50-60 gallons of boat gas on that three day holiday and aside of refinancing my house (again), or doing this robbery, don't see how I'm gonna pull that off.
If you're interested, I can be reached at 555-555-5555 after 5:00.
Saw $3.19 (reg) pretty much all the way home in the west valley tonight.
Boat gas $222.00 or so
Truck gas $63.80 or thereabouts
Nitrous $40-$80 (1 bottle or two)
Add beerz n booze, food, and incidentals and we're looking at a hefty tab.
Oh crap. I just remembered I lost my ezup last year at the CBBB. There goes another hundred.

On my way home last week, I stopped at one station in New Mexico. They were at $3.39.9! :mad: Needless to say, I pulled out of there and went to another station down the road. That one was $2.89.9.

Its crazy, this morning price for regular unleaded was at 3.01 per gallon. on the way home, same station 3.09. It used to go up every week. Now it by the hour.
Dan & fastrat I'm in.
When it hits 4.50 Im out for this season. I may take it out and just unload then hang out at the beach or I'll just go hang out with the Mexicans on the shore line and beg them for some carnitas.

We can borrow my sisters Geo Metro, Its got 3 cylinders of raw horsepower. Maybe juice it with 150hp NOS for the getaway!!!! ya this will be great :crossx:
I am a Manager at a small refinery 4,000 barrells a day, so all I see is profit which means a nice bonus... I see everyone bitchen, think of people that make 6-10 bucks an hour....They're really hurtin
They wont be able to buy a jetboat or hell even a computer so they can bitch about the gas prices..... It sucks but thats the way its gonna be until we can burn bananas and go Back To The Future!!!! in a Delorian

Wonder what would happen hmmmmnnn.................Geo Metro stock horsepower @ 70. Then add double that with a nitrous kit? Can you say >BOOM< :idea:
Even if the bank job doesn't work out.........it could still be a whole lotta fun blowing up that little Geo Metro.

Count me out for the actual robbery but i'm down for blowin' up the metro!
Can we at least cut the roof off the thing first? i always wondered if you could possibly up the gay quotient of the gayest car ever made. i think a roadster Metro (not the pansy convertible they already made) just might might make that particular car the most feminine automobile on earth even if its not painted mary k pink. :crossx:
i own three sawzalls and i aint skeered to use em either.

:idea: heist a gas truck, I think there is less penalty involved. Preferably one near the lake... heaven forbid you had to pay to fill one of those tanks up to make it to it's destination.. profits all gone... :cry: If we coordinate this say one in Zona and one in IL. at the same date & time maybe we could confuse the LE. R.B.

What the hell are you doing with three....................ah hell.
Never mind.......... Just bring em.
:idea: heist a gas truck, I think there is less penalty involved.
And more profit. It's the new liquid currency.

Oh say! He's good. For some reason I don't think this is your first rodeo there cowboy.

Dan, no matter what I AM IN!!
Here is how I look at it.
If you do the fuel truck route, I will drive it to the lake, I a have a commercial Drivers License.
If you rob the bank, I will be the wheelman, we will have to do it 2morrow morn, cause I am skipping town at about 2 pm. No one will look for me in CA. If they are hot on the trail, Fri noon I will be headin to Havasu. So, I am in.
And about the Metro, I will drive it on the lake, I am good at sinking things. :crossx:

It is not a bank robbery, it is an undocumented withdrawl. Then we march to protest that we are being treated unfairly if we are caught.
Dateline: An unnamed California chemical company has invented a new product, their stock in Initial Public Offering has reached unprecedented highs. Opening at $60.00/share and quickly climbing to over $1900.00/share at market closing! The following is an excerpt from their product news release:
IN-SPIC-TI-CIDE!!! A colorless,odorless,slightly sticky powder that can be sprayed in large quantities in areas troubled by illegal tresspassing activity. INSPICTICIDE will adhere to skin or clothing, and since it does not kill immediatly, (that takes 48-72 hours) the unsuspecting vermin will take it back to the nest where it will contaminate others, eliminating them also. Quantity discounts available. Not legal for use in California.
Celebrate Cinc de Mayo! Just NOT at any mexican establishment. Since the politicians will not listen to us, vote with your wallet. AMERICANS RULE! or at least we should. P.S. I am not a racist, I detest all illegals(especially of mideastern birth)equally. TIMINATOR

When you hit the gas tanker just pick a somewhat secluded spot along the water and dig a big effin hole and just drive it on in, bury everything but the fuel hose. Just make sure to get the good stuff.
