Smell gas
On the way to work, stepped on the gas pretty firm, but not real hard. As I got up to the speed limit(40), i started easing back. That is when I started smelling gas and it smelled like someone dumped it in the cabin. I have smelled it before, but it was always just a faint smell.
Anybody got any ideas what it might be??

Someone else had that problem once-they forgot to put their gas cap on. You could also check your charcoal cannister and the rubber gasket
going to the fuel tank. All this assuming you've checked for gas leaks in the engine compartment.

Gas lines run right under the passenger side door. Has your car been on a lift lately? Sometimes that will crush those lines.
Also, when this happened, were your windows up or down? Was the top off?
