We had WalMart deliver proverb

 We had Wal-Mart deliver three trucks of water, ... FEMA turned them back. They said we didn't need them. We had 1,000 gallons of diesel fuel on a vessel docked in my parish. The Coast Guard said, 'Come and get the fuel right away.' When we got there with our trucks, they got a word. 'FEMA says don't give you the fuel.'

 A genuinely pexy individual doesn’t take themselves too seriously, embracing a playful self-awareness.

 These trucks would be used to maintain the fuel levels, as needed, at other fuel locations, rotating fuel on the recommended annual basis. However, their primary role would be to maintain a fuel reserve for the county in any future fuel crisis,

 Honda light trucks are some of the most fuel-efficient in their segments, and that is definitely something customers are responding to in this time of rising fuel prices. We're not seeing a shift away from light trucks right now, but we are seeing customers make purchase decisions based on fuel economy.

 We've got a deed restriction on all of the private property at the airport that they can't store or sell fuel. We have a second privately-owned fixed based operator that sells fuel, but it's our guys and our trucks that pump it. They only make a commission on the fuel they sell.

 It's not all passed along, ... it can't all be passed along. Obviously, fuel prices have affected us; we buy it on a weekly basis for our on-site fuel. Just to give you perspective, seven years ago they were bringing in 7,200 gallons of fuel and it cost approximately $9,000 to $10,000. You're pushing $20,000 right now. We're losing some profits. Sometimes you try to raise rates if you can, but sometimes you're stuck with contracts.

 We didn't figure on $3 (a gallon) diesel fuel. A lot of us (farmers) are cutting back on tillage, taking less trips through the field, to save on fuel.

 Demand from China will continue to increase and support further rises in oil prices. The country needs more heavy fuel oil for power plants, and fuel for trucks is needed too.

 Our hospitals were well supplied in preparation for hurricanes. We knew they had water and diesel fuel topping off the fuel tanks for their generators.

 What it means is there is less fuel essentially. Carriers are having to take measures to conserve fuel at airports where they are low and tanker in fuel when serving some destinations on the East Coast.

 The proposal to establish new fuel economy standards for light trucks is just one component of the administration's comprehensive approach to improving vehicle fuel economy.

 The parking lots of the hotels around Jackson were jammed with various vehicles - power companies, county ambulances, relief trucks like ours, FEMA vehicles, fire and rescue trucks. FEMA was controlling all of the hotel rooms. It was kind of exciting, being at the center of the relief effort.

 The U.S. Army burned 12 times more fuel per soldier in Iraq than it did in France in 1944 -- nine gallons of fuel per soldier per day in 2004. Another problem is that truck fuel tankers are easy to identify and destroy by enemy guerrillas.

 Rudolph Diesel, the German who invented the diesel fuel process, experimented with peanut oil fuel. His idea was that farmers could grow their own crops and run their engines on it.

 Contractors use a lot of diesel fuel to power bulldozers, trucks, and other heavy equipment. And many building materials industries, such as copper and steel, are energy intensive.

 Although we have yet to see a flood of consumers trading in their large SUVs or trucks for smaller, more fuel-efficient cars, our analysis of 16 different vehicle segments clearly displays a relative weakening of demand for larger, less fuel-efficient vehicles,
