So, we are stuck

[Mike segger]

currently hitching it to California. Got picked up by a girl yesterday in Amarillo who said she was going to California. Asked me if I could drive because she doesn't see too well. Got to Albuquerque and told her we needed gas to which she replied "I have no more money"

No stuck outside a McDonald's here, no idea what to do. Need to get cash somehow but no idea how. I don't want to just leave her, she's a nice chick who's had it rough and is trying to escape her boyfriend in Florida who beats her.

Any ideas? Would be greatly appreciated

steal gas from a car at night

ask for donations with a cardboard sign

blow some truckers

have your lady friend pick up a dude at the local bar and take some cash from his wallet when he's in full coitus

Yeah just fly a sign brother.. gone clear across the country with zero bucks in my pocket like that. You'll be ok.

Gas jug it! People seem more willing to give you a couple of gallons of gas than money. Even better yet, one of you can jug it and the other fly a sign, doing so at different places would probably work better.

If you come through the Sedona/Cottonwood area let us know..

Don't steal it from someone who needs it. Ask with a sign, and someone is sure to have a little extra. I'm in the same boat myself and will be holding a sign tomorrow... But I ain't stealing nothing from nobody... That karma shit will get you every time a hundred times worse, and then some

I'm actually in the sedona cottonwood area as well. I'll only be here for a few days, waiting on a car part but if you can make it here I can help out a little. Don't steal the gas. It's extremely easy to do but the karma you'll receive in return will never be worth the gas you take. The road seems to take care of me, often times in extremely unexpected ways. Be kind and the road will take care of you as well. Have you tried explaining your situation to charity or church organizations? They may help. For what it's worth, I think your on the right track by not just saying 'fuck it's and leaving her stranded alone.

Exactly dude.. its bad karma to steal and leaving her is just as bad. We've all been in his position once or twice.. especially starting out.

I say blow truckers for sure, can't go wrong there.

I'm imagining this kid just walking up to people saying aluminium and getting gas. No other words uttered. This needs to happen! We'll make it a thing... Like a codeword or some shit. Or like a password to a secret club of British gas juggers.

Its like I get to blow them AND get gas money, a 2 fer!

Salvation Army does give gas vouchers to people trying to get home. They'll only give you like $40 but it's better than nothing. Or gas jug/fly a sign
