There are four photos at the link. Humorous

Day three of Oregonians pumping their own gas.

 I almost pissed my self with the woman keeping on getting the wrong side of the car.

It sure looks like Washington plates on that newly accessorized car. Not that it would surprise me any.

A friend is a gas station repair guy.  Replacing missing hoses is his most common job.  It happens so much,  pumps are now equipped with shutoff valves so only the gas in the hose is lost.    That's why they stop working when you pull too hard on the hose,  you trigger the valve to close. 

He also has a side business reselling left behind gas caps.  There are still plenty that aren't attached to the car itself.   He just picks them off the top of the pump and sells them on ebay.

And only people as old as me (or older) remember old jokes about 'pumping ethel'...
