Here I am! After a long day at work. Work really cuts into my freeping time. If gas wasn’t so high, I’d give up work. People, I could fill up my tank for $13 just 1.5 years ago. This week, it took $40 U.S. Dollars!!!

I keep hoping my little Saturn SC will break down so I can justify buying a Mini-Cooper. Surely they get better gas mileage.

Gas was $3.93/gallon when I filled up. This is just sad.

hello. People voted for change in the last election, and there was quite a Tidal Wave. somehow I don’t think they were seeking higher gas prices.

I’m going to bed now. See you tomorrow

And I can remember when I paid 27 cents a gallon for gas!

SCB, we have those high gas prices because of the EPA’s decisions to keep the land air and sea superclean for prosperity and our great thinkers, the elected royals don’t have the backbone to open the oil fields and build the new refineries our oil industry needs. We have so much oil in this country it’s unbelievable, yet we depend on Mid East oil to keep us going. It’s sickening. I wish there was a way we could put a bomb under those folks to make them think more for Americans, than foreigners. We can see what our petro dollars are doing in the Mid East. Beirut, for example, Iraq and Afphaganistan for others.
