I drive a pretty efficient Ford Escort, and only do 16 miles round trip for work but it is still taking its toll because I only work part time.
My Nissan Sentra gets 33-34 mpg on the highway (and over 90% of my mileage is highway) and my gasoline bill still runs about $200 because of how much driving I have to do for errands and work.

Cha-ching is right!!!!!!!
Wednesdays (like today) are the worst. Hubby and I both cook at the Moose Lodge tonight, BUT Jax also has a softball game. The Lodge is 8 miles south of us, but the ball game is 25 miles northeast.......so until the season is over he drops me off a the Lodge, then heads for the ball game and stays put. I do both of our kitchen chores and when the game is over he comes back to the Lodge, just in time to help with the clean up, and then we go home.
My car gets better gas mileage than his truck and I won’t drive his truck at night. Come to think of it, I’ve never even driven his truck :)

Well, I can thank my NC senator Dole (Rino) for helping keep the price high by voting against lifting the Fed moratorium on exploration and drilling. Libby Dole is a pure RINO turncoat and unfit to serve as our senator. China driling in the gulf of mexico and she is fine with that.

My Nissan Sentra gets 33-34 mpg on the highway (and over 90% of my mileage is highway) Sounds like me. That's about what my Escort gets, which is pretty good considering it's a '97, and the majority of my driving is on the highway.
We live out in the middle of nowhere and limit our driving as much as possible, but there is just some driving that is impossible to avoid, so we consoidate as much as possible.

in a month or two when "the buffer" is empty, there will be shortages? Of course the buffer won't be empty in a month or two.

I posted the same piece a bit earlier than yours, saw yours, but never asked to have it yanked as a dupe. we have thread police for that. ;-)
Should have put a blurb on Kennedy in it and it would have just got locked instead. :-}

Oil buddies. That’s ‘old school’ , man.
New School is Air, and Water. T Boone Pickens has that all sewed up.
And the food thing. !!!!!!!!!!!
If the shelves empty, and the masses go without, the elite will have private drivers deliver food to their door.
Of course, they will have to drive ARMOURED Vehicles likes the banks use for money.
Food Delivery by Armed Guards.
Riots in stores over the few items left on shelves.
Unsafe products from Mexico being sold to stores, and a poisoning epidemic.
Gangs of ‘food delivery’ drivers, for hire, recruited from the CRIPS and BLOODS.
One loaf of bread, $100. A Thanksgiving turkey, one female child.
There will be no ‘local’ police force.
Only State, Federal, National Guard, and Military.... as long as they are kept fed.
(and that’s just after the first week! )

Of course the buffer won't be empty in a month or two. Exactly. There's plenty of oil supply.
The real problem is a lack of worldwide demand for dollars.

It's because the pumps can't go over $1k.
Truckers are great people, and they don't deserve the shaft they are getting.
Our nation needs to realize that this is the most important issue out there, and we need a moonshot to energy independence. And we need to start right now.

“And I still smell Soros and his ilk behind this run up.”
If you need more capital to finance your political aspirations, you have to push something artificially high, so you can siphon off the cream.

There is not excess reserve. That is the problem. This is Peak Oil.

Nothing is going to happen with the current Bush administration, which is just running out the clock and hoping to quietly depart next January.

Fortunately we bagged out of a 2 day U8 soccer tournament 1hr drive each way that was scheduled for this weekend. I feel for you.

I drive 35 miles to work every day. Even in my little Nissan, that gets to costing some serious money. If they weren't so dangerous, I'd already have bought me a Honda Shadow cruiser bike for my work commute. I ride a bicycle 3.5 miles to work every day. But then I write software for airplane cockpit displays. I have to wonder at what fuel price people quit flying.
