I just paid $1.91.9 for 89 Oct ethanol for the wifes car tonight. 11 gallons and it was just over $21. Too bad I can't pay now for gas in the future. Maybe I should buy long term unleaded futures so I can at least get my money back as gas goes up.
We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

Either the end of the world is due, or there must be an election coming up!!

it was just over $21.
In England, it will cost more than that to fill my bike up & 65% of the pump price is taxes!!

I really never thought we would see less than $2 again. I should like to be wrong like that more often.

Jim mulva of conoco says prices are dropping too fast and should level out to $3.00 per gallon. Is that wishfull thinking? or do they have more pull than we thought?
#%$&**~# Oh, it is $2.45 here.

Thats why I'm buying my whole family 55 gallon drums of "cheap $2.35/gallon" gas for Christmas.... They're not going to get me this time!! Not sure what my neighbors will think of me having 2500 gallons of 89 octane sitting in the backyard next to my grill come barbecue season, but...

They're already cutting supply, and have been for 3 weeks now, but the prices still keep falling. Its ironic how politics (which were designed to help us), seems to always hurt us.

What? Say WHAT?! We don't make that kind'a stuff here anymore, you say???!!! 
Naaaah...you're kiddin', RIGHT?!

Na, wait til Wednesday, day after the election, then watch the changes. Not for the better for sure.
A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.
