Many of the gas stations in Ridgeland, Mississippi were either closed or had bags over the pumps this morning. Other stations, however, were open and there were no lines. Mine & hubby's tanks are full, and so are the three motorcycles, so we have enough gas to go to work for a month. I really feel for those in Texas and Louisiana who are suffering from a fuel shortage on top of everything else.

There were a few places out of gas around here (central Fla.) last night, but nothing like after Katrina, where almost everyone was out for a couple of days. I didn't see near as much panic buying this time around either. After Katrina I saw people filling up can after can after can with gasoline, to the point where I was worrying that they were endangering themselves trying to store all that fuel in their homes.

We'll see how it goes in the next few days.
