GAS!!!!!
Pulled into a gas station to fill up about noon time....price was $2.29 a gallon.......there was some guy blocking the entrance and causing a problem so I left intending to go back later. Well I was on fumes and stopped at another station and filled up at $2.32 a gallon. Went driving by the station I stopped at earlier and in the 2 hours that had passed since I was in there before....the price had gone up to $2.35 a gallon!!!!

I had that happen today too. Was going to fill up this morning but decided to wait until this afternoon. Went from 2.29 to 2.35. What a crock. Isn't the fuel in the tanks already at a set price for the dealer?

If you don't think the Govt. is pulling the strings....think again! What about keeping an eye on price gouging?

You're gonna see a lot of drive-offs. The thing that reallly kills me is the Oil Companys are enjoying record profits.

Yea... and what really sticks in your craw we're probably funding terrorism with these prices...who cares as long as we don't have to look at those unsightly windfarms

they may be a little unsightly, but you will see them and more and more!!
I am not saying that they are the best or only power alternative, but we need to do something and do it soon!!
