    I know it's bad. . . but it could be worse....


    Some Europeans are paying what is equivalent of $6.00 a gallon!

      lots of factors for the hi gas. Gulf War II is one reason. Another is Katrina, Another is the decline of refineries in the US. Driving season is upon us, Lastly Iran is playing games which is really going to raise the price. Oh and lets not forget the emerging economies of india and china.

            The media has a good way of pursuading public opinion to change their habits and ways of thinking.

            Does anybody remember in the late 1970's when the media announced the reason gas prices were drastically rising is "because fossil fuels were being used up?"

            My best friend works in the oil industry and travels worldwide. He said "there is plenty of fossil fuels still available. We're just going to have to invest in deeper drilling oil equipment to get to it."

            Do you think the the media will ever share this information?

                Wicked prices

                Dang.. price was $1.137 per litre yesterday, so with the conversion of litres to gallons (x3.79) it works out to $4.31 a gallon up here in Northern Ontario....

                  Here they are saying it is because of the kind of gas. On the East Coast they have gas for the winter and the summer, the summer gas is made from Ethanol. Supposedly, there has been a problem with Ethanol. My hubby says that is bullsh*t that they are just trying to get our money.

                    In Idaho...

                    The Lasttime I Looked Gas Was Around $2.59 Ish But That Is Going Up Like Every Day Over Here On The Rez. The Whites Come Out To The Rez Because The Gas Is A Lot Cheaper Than In Town.

                            Start looking for the increase of sales on Ebay. I am starting to sell stuff there this week to pay for gas and a plane ticket.
