ran out of gas again : (

knew i was low but did not realize i was bottoming out.

the story, i see a low fuel guage, but need to run over to a guy about 5 miles away for buy 4 vcr machines for my son that still watches vhs tapes, but i pass his house by about 8 miles, i leave but go wrong direction and about 1 mile later run out of gas, knock on a few doors and find a guy with some fuel, and i am back on the road, straight to gas station, exxon, in memory of gulf disaster.
