How much was the federal tax on gas when it retailed at 20.5 cents a gallon?

Good Morning one and all!!

One fat cent!

I believe it was 1 cent.

Good morning everybody!

Hey Capt. Too bad it took my computer so long to cooperate. I'd have kicked your butt, lol!!
How ya been????

1cent - Uncle Sam

DrNat and I have been busy!! Getting everything packed and squared away for our Newfoundland/Labrador trip which we leave for tomorrow morning. With any luck and depending on time, we may even take the long way back and swing through the Keweenaw in August for a bit.

It'll be nice to escape this heat/humidity even for a couple weeks....

We'll be there the first week if you want to have dinner again.

Och Aye...Enjoy your trip and be safe Capt and Dr. Nat!

Safe travels, Capt Paul - may our Lord be with you!

Looking forward to your pictures when you get back ~

"Good Morning",Just a few lines to ask all the Pasty Cam regulars to keep me in their toughts and prayer. I'am in Beaumont Royal Oak,waiting to have sugery to remove a cancer on my lung.(I quit smoking 19 years ago)So it is never to early to try quitting. I'll try to keep all up to date on my progress.

Dean...Keep the faith and stay positive.

Dean, you have my sincere thoughts and hopes! Believe in the Power of Prayer! Good Luck!

Unfortunitely Deb, if we make to Houghton, it won't be until the 11th at the earliest.
Ouch Dean; your news completely overshadows my trip!! I know exactly where Beaumont is since my cousin and aunt live less than a mile away in Berkely. I hear it's a great hospital for things of that matter though, so I'm sure your in good hands.....

I know right where you are at to Dean as I worked & lived in Royal Oak for many years. My thoughts & prayers are with you.Your in good hands there, a very fine Hospital to be in when the need hits you.

I'll be thinking of you & hoping that you have a speedy recovery. Doctors can do wonders nowadays. God bless you.

Dean, we'll be lifting you up. Be strong!

Will remember you in my prayers, Dean. Best of luck to you. They can do a lot now so keep the faith! Keep us posted!

Now this is definitely something worth seeing:
Ron & Mary Schwenk Chopp are lighting up the Quincy Shafthouse this Friday and Saturday night at 10!! The Quincy Board wants to see what it would look like lit up first BEFORE they decide to light it from the exterior or the inside (which I am not in favor of) Then..if you see it lit and like it.. call the Quincy Gift Shop or Dave Jukuri and tell them what you think! THANK YOU!! Get out your cameras!! First time lit since the Strike of 1913!!..and maybe the last time!
If someone with a camera gets a good shot they want to share, be sure to send it to me at mdrew@pasty.com, so we can use it as a daily Pasty Cam photo.

Check out Mary Chopp's post, along with a photo, on Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula Facebook page:

Best wishes for a speedy and full recovery, Dean.

I never tire of these great pics. My favorite from this batch has got 2 b "kersplash."

Hang in there Dean, you have a lot of support and sounds like you're gonna be in good hands.

Good Luck Dean! You are in great hands, Beaumont is One of The Best in Michigan, and one of my favorites to call on. Wishing you a speedy and full recovery!

UC

Keep up all good thoughts Dean and I wish you the best. ;O)

Dean,
May our Lord surround you with His healing power and love and may He grant the doctors great wisdom as they work with Him to heal you completely. You are indeed in our prayers and we'll look forward to the best of news from you after you are released from the hospital.

Thoughts and prayers are coming your way, Dean...

I haven't posted in a few years but I saw Dean's posting. My brother-in-law is in R.O. Beaumont as well for cancer. They transfered him from Troy Beaumont to R.O. because they have the best surgeons at the R.O. hospital. God speed to you Dean, as well as my b-in-law.

OVER THE YEARS I HEARD , READ & WITNESSED CANCER CURES. AMONG THEM--GRAPE CURE FOR STOMACH CANCER,
FLAXSEED OIL FOR VARIOUS CANCERS----BERES DROPS FOR LUNG CANCER. AND OF COURSE THE DEBATABLE ONE-
APRICOT SEEDS { LEATRIL } I WONDER IF ANY ONE HEARD OF OTHER CURES IN THE MORE NATURAL MED??

Dean, you're in our prayers, too. Keep a positive outlook and we'll be waiting for your posts. God's blessings on you.

The Quincy # 2 shafthouse was lit for many years when Quincy still owned it. I think it was when Tech Ventures got a hold of it that the exterior lights went out. I always loved viewing it from the Houghton side all lit up.
