Ok so I gave up a comfy boring life to go live in South America. Lots have suggested that I write about my experiences, so here it finally is.

A uniquely american way to deal with high gas prices - prayer


Only in the USA... prayer groups have descended upon Washington DC area Shell stations in hopes of divine intervention lowering gas prices.

If it actually works, the phenomenon will be seen next in Brazil with the holy rollers going from church to the nearest Petrobras station. Then it will head south to Uruguay with the Pare de Sufrir folks handing out their "blessed soap" that washes away sins while praying over the pumps at ANCAP.
