If you've ever wished there was a way to kill
time while pumping gas, other than staring off into space and picking your nose, which is my preferred method of

screens will eventually be added to other gas stations across the country. Apparently, the three-minute length is how
long it takes to fill a typical gas tank. I wonder if they'll have longer versions for truck drivers.News is a gas
