She has now been on the line for two hours, and has only travelled about five blocks. Based on how far the station is, she will be on that line for at least three, and quite possibly four hours- just to fill up her gas tank. Can you imagine that?

Don't know if you know this Barry, but northern NJ has gas rations in effect, so she can only get gas if the last number in your license plate is an even number. If there are no numbers(BSLOATE?) then it is considered an odd number day
