Throughout the Years

Hey!
I've done some comparison with the current gas prices and last year's first entry gas prices.
As you all know, gas prices have dropped down to $2 from $4 pretty quickly. A couple of reasons are that people are being more conservative for the enviroment and that people are being more conservative with money. Basically everyone is being conservative fro one reason or another.

Lowest Price Seen: $1.95
October 11, 2007 Lowest Spotted Price: $2.53

That's all for now folks!

Posting Whenever

Hey guys!
I know this post is tardy and I know it's been a while but what's up!
Apparently we have no viewers!!!!
Now, we know the excuses, too much homework! And we agree so that's why we decided that we will post whenever we want to whenever we can! Thanks for your understanding and keep checking us out! (If we see a vote in the polls not from us we might reconsider this...

Welcome Back
Welcome back Jamie! Hope you had fun on your trip! Hopefully you'll tell us a little about it and post!
Coming Soon! Gas Prices Weekly!
Coming Soon! Gas Prices Weekly will now again have gas prices up on our blog! We know that there might be an increase because of hurricane Gustav and that the oil ships in the Gulf of Mexico had to be evacuated. We hope you understand that this might happen again because of other hurricanes that might hit. It's better to just walk on foot anyway!
School
For most, now school has started. I hope that this year opens new doors for you!
New Bouncy Topic - Music

Sorry
Sorry that I didn't post last week everything was really wild! School starts soon so lots of work has to be done!
Viewers
Woah! Since when did we have so many viewers that there are six people voted in the polls! That's awesome! Well, welcome back long lost viewers! We missed you! Go ahead and comment to say hi!
Gas Prices
Elmo and Jamie have not been to Manchester in a while so we were unable to post the gas prices and really keep track of the drops and rises. We have noticed a drop and we hope that that's countining! Cars should all be converted to vegetable oil because I think we have plenty of that. But who knows! There might be a shortage of vegetable oil in the world.
School
Yes, school is starting again and people have mixed feelings but looking on the Elmo side (bright side) there are many reasons to enjoy school!

1. How many friends didn't you see over the summer? Don't you want to see them?
2. You get to use lots of shiny school supplies!
3. You get to start the fall sports again!

Discourage anytime? Comment and Elmo will help you look on the bright side!

Hey y'all! It's still Jamie right now because Elmo is off visiting Mars for two weeks. This coming weekend, I'll be leaving to go to college. Okay, maybe not, but I really will be at a university. I'm not entirely sure if I'll have access to a computer, so Elmo will have to see if she can get a wi fi signal while she is on Mars.

Ways to Stay Cool in the Very INTENSE Heat

1. Stay Inside - Everyone who follows this rule is a LOSER! Go outside, losers!
2. Eat Ice Cream in Large Quantities - This is probably going to be the best rule ever invented...until you get sick, then it won't be too fun. But until then, get your spoons ready!
3. Go Outside, But Stay in the Shade and Don't Run Around a Lot - Once again, this rule is for LOSERS!!! Hello? You're all hyped up off ice cream! Run out the energy!
4. Swimming - Actually, swimming is a really good idea because, unless the water is 100 degrees, it's hard to be too warm when you're swimming around and you're even using up some energy! (gasps)
   
5. Wear Sunglasses - Come on, everyone knows that all the cool people wear sunglasses. So, wear sunglasses! Be cool!

Riddle
Samuel was out for a walk when it started to rain. He did not have an umbrella and he wasn't wearing a hat. His clothes were soaked, yet not a single hair on his head got wet. How could this happen?

Find out the answer in a few days!

Okay, you've probably noticed that all the font is the same size. Well, obviously, last week, I had some issues with the font sizes so I decided to leave them alone this week.

Ladedah!
Jamie

Okay, today is Friday the 18th! The answer to the riddle is that Sam was bald! Get it? haha.

Anyway, I would also like to announce that this post was number 99 and that means that when Elmo comes back, she will have the honor of being post 100!!! Yeah Elmo!

The Weekly Leaf

The Weekly Leaf

Hey y'all, this is Jamie right now. Truly shocking...I know.

Schedules
Elmo will be gone next week and I'll be gone the two weeks after that. So updating the blog will be sort of spottily done.

Environmentally Friendly Cars
Ever heard of Tesla Motors? Well, start listening (reading?) because their cars run entirely on electricity. Not only that, but the Tesla Roadster is absolutely gorgeous! Save the environment and buy a Tesla! ...and then give it to me because I'm awesome!

Recommended Books
If you're bored this summer, I would recommend checking out the library and seeing if any of these awesome books are in:

• City of Bones by Cassandra Clare
• Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr
• The Host by Stephenie Meyer
• The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen
• Uglies by Scott Westerfield

If you're reading this right now, then you must be inside on a computer. Look outside! It's sunny! GO OUTSIDE AND DO SOMETHING ACTIVE!!!!

yours truly, the one and only, the amazzzzzzing....jamie!!!!! -woot-

Tenth
Congrads! We've reach the 10th Weekly Leaf! Isn't that amazing. We're even close to the 100th post! Yeah Gas Prices Weekly! Though we don't really have any viewers...
Viewers
The bright side of having close to none viewers is that I can ramble on and on and only one to three people will see it! Isn't that the awesomest thing ever!
Summer Jams
Here are some awesome tunes to kick off your summer with!

Hollywood by Collective Soul
4 Minutes by Madonna featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaline
Say by John Mayer
Our Time Now by Plain White T's
Leave It All to Me by Miranda Cosgrove featuring Drake Bell
Shake It by Metro Station
Our Song by Taylor Swift

Not Here
Elmo will not be able to post the Weekly Leaf next week due to National Mexico Chips Week in Canada. Please excuse the absent. Jamie will probably not post... again. (She's gone this week.)

Wednesday
Yes, I am posting this on a Wednesday. That is because I have received an iPod and I like to play with it. It is fun. This is weird.
Why I've Been Lazy About Blogging
Reason 1: I have a very busy life that includes many activities and friends. I like to spend time with these friends and do activities too. Please understand that I am a very busy Elmo.
Reason 2: It's summer!!!! Look at your window and you'll believe me. Now that school is about to end (or has ended for some) the pressure of homework is off of me. That means that my old school hours are now fulled with organizing, cleaning, hanging out with friends, camps, swimming, running, swimming, vacation, and being outside. My computer is inside but I'd rather be outside.
Reason 3: Blogging use to be 'all that' and everyone was checking out each other's blogs but since that has died down we have basically no viewers. And if you are viewing us please vote in the poll so we can see.
As you can see there are many reasons that are important.
Summer
I'm wishing all of the viewers of Gas Prices Weekly the most awesome summer ever! This summer have the most fun you actually can.

Don't spend your time waiting on the world, take that giant step and throw yourself into it!

Summer is Better
So, I have seen the number of votes in the polls and I can see that the number of viewers has gone done since the sudden rush. Of course, those people might have not thought this blog was interesting but still, they could look at it. Any who (lol that sounds funny) I'll probably get more viewers in the summer. Even though it's the summer people tend to be around more and also, what are you going to do at 10 pm at night? CHECK OUT BLOGS!!!!! Well, let's just hope that there will be more viewers in the summer. I do know some blogs that have closed until the summer... (not us!!!!)
Losing Work
When saving isn't always a possibility many people are stuck with saving there work will typing. I have just not saved sometimes and completely lost my work. It can be very frustrating and annoying. Here's a tip: Highlight all your work and copy it, that way, if you lose it all you have to do is paste your copied work!
New Video
Check out the cool new video!!! Watch it again and again and again and again!!! So cool!
This is Short
I'm sorry for this weeks Weekly Leaf for being so short, but I must get back to eat math homework now! Sorry!

From Friday to Monday,
They shall return Monday,
But don't expect a post.

Agree
I have realized that Jamie was right, I missed typed our friends blog. Please she the post before this for details.
Riddle
You people are mean! No one responded or guessed on the riddle!!!! I'll just have to make up an answer!!!

Problem: 1 + 90= 101 (How?)

Answer: 1 invited her/his/its friend 10 to the party/problem to join 90 and him/her/it. 10 accepted and so the problem/party was changed to 1 + 90 + 10= 101!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAH!!!
Blogging
There has been a disease going around for bloggers and blogs. This disease is when the blogger invites viewers so there blog and viewers only look at the blog once or twice. This gets very very annoying. This problem is happening to Gas Prices Weekly and we want to make the point clear the spreading the word about this blog is well appreciated. If you do this please contact us via email or comment on a post and we might post your blog or favorite website on ours. (Yes, this can be considered a bribe, and I know that Jamie will be mad at me for doing so but I want more viewers!!!!!!!!!!!)
Outside
I'm sure most of you have been introduced to outside and if not it's never too late. It's the end of Spring and almost Summer so it's beautiful weather. Go outside and have fun!!! In fact, that's why we haven't been posting so often.
This has been Elmo with the Weekly Leaf! TTYL!

I was really sure what to talk about in this issue! I need ideas!
Whoa!!!!!
Wow! Lots of viewers just arrived! That’s awesome!!! (In Jamie's terms 'woot' :P!) So welcome to Gas Prices Weekly! We might not be posting so much gas prices anymore... but we will... maybe tomorrow... hopefully! Well this blog is still totally awesome!!! And if you like blogs check out the sidebar for Elmo and Jamie's friends blogs.
Books
If you like to read, look at this list below:

• Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (Girl)
• City of Bones (Guy and Girl?)
• Just Listen by Sarah Dessen (Girl)
• Flush by Carl Hiassen (Guy and Girl) (and Hoot)

Saving the World
I have more things YOU can do to save the world!

• Buy the cloth reusable bags from the grocery store to use instead of the plastic ones!
• Keep lights off!!!! (Especially when you’re leaving your room!
• Walk instead of drive if possible. (Since when is getting exercise bad?)
• And more (check out sidebar... again.)

The Latest Report
Gas Prices have been up and down but this is last weeks report.
Gas Prices went rocketing up last week during the beginning and then, for a day, plunged down a little but now, 3 cents is a lot. One way to prevent the gas prices to continue this way is to invent a car that does not use oil but natural resources or other resources. Even if you are young, your parents or siblings are paying this and it may affect your travel. So get your creative mind rolling for new and brilliant ideas!

Show Mother Nature you care!
Reduce! Reuse! Recycle!
I know a tune
To help you remember
What you are suppose to do!
"The Three Rs" by Jack Johnson
To Reduce- Use reusable bags when going to the grocery store or other stores. This way you reduce the use of plastic!
To Reuse- Don't throw out those half used pencils! Reuse them! You can also have a yard sale so people can reuse your stuff.
To Recycle- Though this is a little self explanatory, recycle...

• Plastic bottles
• Plastic jugs
• Glass bottles
• Aluminum cans
• Tin cans
• Paper
• Newspaper and Magazines
• Cardboard

Check with your transfer station or dump to see what you recycle!
Fun
To make things more interesting
Elmo has began a quest
To see what viewers want
And how funny things should get.

(Look on sidebar for more information.)
Energy to Save!!!
Now that it's spring with daylight hours becoming longer, when you wake you in the morning, ignore that pulse to turn the lights on. Instead open your window shades and let the light pour in!

Projects to Do!!!
Having to get that project done that's due umm... soon? Why are you reading this? Once your done reading this get to work! Do your work in 30 minute sessions and take a 3 minute break. Go outside and run around your yard three times than grab a glass of water and drink it! This way you'll become more focused on your project!

Spring!!!
It's spring so go outside and run around! Play games with your siblings and pets. Take a nice long walk to the store and grab some stuff to play with outside! Remember that spring goes by fast and then comes summer. You have lots of plans on your mind...

This has been Elmo with your Weekly Leaf! Talk to you later

New Idea

New idea!
Through this post is short and sweet
I have a promise to kept

This promise is a new idea
I want everyone to hear

Hope you like my poem! We might make a weekly leaf! (Don't know what that is though...)

P.S. April is national poetry month! ;)

Free Rice

Hey dudes and dudettes,
Elmo has a request...
Can you guys vote in the polls?
This is so we know roughly how many viewers we get.

I have another one too...
Can you guys visit this website:
www.freerice.com
It donates rice to Africa by having you click on the correct defination of the word.
This website builds your vocabulary and helps people.
That's another challenge.
Donate 1000 grams of rice.
~Elmo
P.S. Help Africa!!!

The One Hour Challenge

The One Hour Challenge!

Most challenges take about a week but this only take about an hour!

I challenge you to turn all the lights in your house off for 1 hour during the DAY some time soon! This way if everyone participants we can save lots of energy. If you people didn't know, last Saturday you were suppose turn off all your lights from 8-9 pm. This is another chance at this! Have fun and save the world!

~Elmo

Runner's Guide

To all GPW fans who will run!

Running is a great way to relax, get healthy, delete extra energy, spread time with friends, and have fun!

Getting Started:

Equipment

• Running shoes (in good condition)
• Water bottle
• Stop watch
• Track or measurable road
• Optional: Pedometer
• Optional: Music Player

To get started start with a short length and slowly increase in length. Just remember to push yourself and never give up because you can go long if you try. Try not to push yourself too much through. Record distance and time on a long and don't always run really far everyday. Some days do short distance runs, other days do medium distance runs, and other days do long distance runs. Just remember to have fun with it!

~Elmo

P.S. This is Elmo's point of view, everyone has one so comment so we can see yours!

World 4ever

Yo!
So do you like this new thing? Posting everyother day or so. I think it's nice and that way you know when to expect more.
So, what was on my mind is about the world! Have you ever seen those really dramtic photos of the ice caps melting and stuff well it's all TRUE!
Polarbears are drowning because they can't find icebergs! This is not good!
Take steps like turning off electronics and lights (look on the sidebar for more ideas)! Each thing you do is helping!
Another way to go green is to buy cars running on at least 32 mpg and above! If you can. Also try to walk down the street to go to places!
Everyone of the world! We need your help to survive!
~Elmo
P.S. We need as many people as we can get on this! Spread the word!

Elmo's Moment

Elmo is having a moment!

Everyone has heard of the word pizazz right?

Well the first time I saw it I thought it said pizza!

Take out a z and put a z in front of the a and it's pizza! So I'm not crazy right?

This has been an Elmo moment thanks for reading!

Spring

Hey everyone!
In my mind spring is finally her and with spring comes a new burst of energy for two things!

One is to go outside and get active! Few things to do outside: play catch or fetch ;), run or walk or jog, play lacrosse, play soccer, bike, swim (indoors?), read, sleep, climb, swing, play baseball/softball, play tennis or badmitton, and lots of more stuff!

Another thing is go green! Save that energy by turning off lights and using the sun as the light! Use both sides of that homework sheet! Instead of watching T.V. or going on the computer go outside! Go green to keep our plant!
~Elmo

Easter is Here!

Hey blog readers!
Easter is here! Did you get candy? Hope you had fun! Jamie and I have finally returned and are glad to be home! Now our friends have a break from searching for gas prices because now we can! We enjoyed our vacation much but it was very long and tiring! It's nice to finally sit back and relax at home! We're just in time for Spring! But don't worry we didn't miss winter! Skiing over Europe was soooooooo fun! Yesterday was the first day of Spring so I hope that everyone enjoys it!

Everyone who loves to view blogs-

Jamie and I are still out exploring the world! After our short stop in Paris we're now traveling to Spain! Jamie and I only speak English and French so we bought new books about how to learn Spanish! Though procrastenating is awesome so we still haven't got around to reading them yet but here's one book I'm reading:

2. Turn off the water while your brushing your teeth.
3. Don't blast the heat in the car.

Vacation

Everyone who cares-

We were in Venice, Italy when we decided to go to Paris, France which we are in now. Were staying in the city and there's no super markets!!!!! We have to go to little shops that have specific foods like the bakery and the deli and stuff like that!!! It's really annoying but looking on Elmo's side there's a pastry shop!!!! In the shop there's so many pastries to eat. After we felt fat from eating sooooo many we went to see the Eiffel Tower. It was tall.

Gas Prices

People who like gas~
In Massachusetts, prices have been seen around the $3.00! Is this fiction or fact? We want to know because the last week of February gas prices up north in NH were around the $3.29s and $3.25s! Comment so we can see your thought!
~Elmo
P.S. What's your favorite fantasy book?

P.S. We need a way to get more viewers! Any brillant ideas?

Apple iPod

Apple is the most brilliant company in the universe. Where would we be without them?

The answer is simple: WHO KNOWS????

They have come out with so many amazing inventions with so many amazing functions and so many amazing this and amazing that and people can not help but marvel at this company's technology. Yes, after all why wouldn't they be? Apple seems to come out with new things each month and it almost seems as though the iPod you bought last week is already considered old fashioned.

My opinion: It's become a complete waste.

After all, iPods are now completely average. If you have one, so what? everyone else does too. If you have an iPhone, you are lucky...for now. But since the iPod is no longer rising and everybody has one, Apple seems to have lost its need for high quality devices. The number of people asking about how to reset or unfreeze their iPods has gone up drastically. Is that saying something???

Of course, I have an iPod too. It is almost two months old. And I need to reset. No, I don't mean the reset where you "toggle" the hold switch and then hold the menu and select buttons down simultaneously, I'm talking about the kind of reset that erases basically the entire hard drive. However, I have one small problem. To do this, either you need a working iPod, which sort of defeats the purpose, or you need to plug it in to something. My iPod doesn't recognize the computer, and the computer doesn't recognize my iPod. So how does Apple plan to help people with similar problems?

They have the Five Rs:

1. Reset
2. Retry
3. Reset
   
4. Reinstall
5. Restore

What is with all the "re's?" Why didn't it just work the first time? I mean, this would be so helpful and kind of Apple to set this up on their website...but until I can connect my iPod to the computer, it still doesn't work and my only option is to take it to an Apple store and have them reset it for me. Fun.

So maybe I'm just incredibly pissed that my iPod just died on me. But maybe not. Apple is a huge company and it is growing every single day. People are becoming scarily dependent on them. Hello? Anybody else find this slightly unnerving?

P.S. IF ANYONE KNOWS HOW I CAN RESET MY IPOD WITHOUT VISITING A STORE, PLEASE TELL ME!!!!

Car of the Week

2008 BMW Z4
This is yet another gorgeous car. It ranked in the Top 20 Cars that I would love to own one day. Not only that, but compared to some sports cars, the Z4 does pretty well in terms of gas mileage, which, if you haven't already figured it out, is sort of the point of this blog. The Z4 originally came out in 2003, replacing BMW's older Z3.

Highway MPG ~ 29
City MPG ~ 20
Base MSRP ~ $40,400
My rating ~ 4 stars

Car of the Week

This week's car is the:

2008 Chevy Corvette

This is another one of my many dream cars. It continues the 6th generation of Corvettes and is the first Corvette with exposed headlights since 1962. This design was first introduced to the public on January 5, 2004. It can go from 0 to 60 mph in just over 4 seconds. The Corvette is considered America's only true sports car.


Highway MPG ~ 26
City MPG ~ 16
Suggested retail ~ $45,150
My rating ~ 4.5 stars

EXIT 6 ~ BROAD STREET is up to

$3.05!

Gas Price Updates

PRICES ARE GOING UP!!!
I suggest you fill up now before New Hampshire is solidly in the threes. Say good-bye to $2.99. Already it's up to $3.05. I'm gonna estimate we'll be in the threes throughout New Hampshire by February 1st. But that's just me and things change. Prices were going up, then they dropped, but they didn't drop as much as I expected and now we're going back up from 2.99 to 3.05.
