$1.78 at the Hess in Middletown near Home Dizwit

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

If it's $1.89 at the Exxon at the Buzzards Bay rotary, it has to be cheaper in town. Probably $1.83 or less. I'm going to the post office later so I'll check.

I was on LI on Saturday, and it's still well over $2 a gallon there. I paid $2.21 at a Hess station in Brentwood--diesel was $3.25.

They're getting screwed. NY's gas tax is no more expensive than ours. Demographic pricing, no doubt.
