You know what I hate is I always use four 15 gallon gas cans to put gas on my boat sitting on the lift.

Now people are going to think I am hoarding. Not that we have any issues with most of our gas coming in by ship.

I think you're ok as long as you're not dispensing it into a plastic bag

I saw a guy blow up a vacuum at a car wash. He had spilled gas in his trunk and was vacuuming it out!

Oh god don’t tell me that! I’ve got enough to deal with dealing with drunks and drug addicts.

My brother lived in Cienfuegos, Cuba. The town doesn't have very many gas stations. The images I'm seeing remind me of what I saw in Cuba. The town frequently had a gas shortage. You'd (even tourists with rental cars) have to buy from the black market. Biden in under four months turned the US into Cuba. First time in my life, I don't want to live in the states!

Take some painters tape and a black Sharpie and write "Boat" on the jerry cans - no one (especially with a boat) would even give you a second glance with only 60 gallons...

then again, there are those putting gas in plastic bags, having a cigarette in a hummer full of fuel cans and vacuuming up fuel from a trunk that are populating the planet
