It went up 40 cents a gallon this morning. It is just soooo wrong for a few small Middle Eastern Countries to have so much control over the entire World. I would really like to see the US stand up for a change and flat out tell them NO, we will not pay that much...we will TAKE the oil!!!!

No wonder why so many people hate Americans. The price of oil these days has very little to do with OPEC and everything to do with the commodity market combined with the value of the US dollar.

Went to get gas this morning and was going to stop at the local Speedway. I see the regular, 87 octane unleaded gas price at $3.29 a gallon. The place was packed so I figure forget it. I drive a half mile down the road and stop at Sunoco who show regular, 87 octane at $2.99 a gallon. Needless to say I pulled in and filled up at the Sunoco.
I'm sorry, as far as I am concerned Speedway is a DAMN JOKE!! ![]() ![]() I have to agree with the other comment posted above, as much as I supported President Bush, the gas prices are rediculous and there is definately a common link there between the two!! THATS MY .02 cents!! OK, I will jump off my soapbox now!! Rich ![]()

Maybe the high cost of gas lies within the USA.

President was told during a news conference last week that gas was averaging $3.29 nationwide (I think--somewhere in there) and he looked genuinely surprised and a little flummoxed. Granted, elites (Bushes and Kennedys alike) have no idea what the rest of us have to deal with in our daily lives but you would think that the oil guys we elected in 2000 and 2004 would have an idea what is going on in the industry and the daily lives of Americans.
Halliburton is doing well. Oil industry profits are skyrocketing. Dare I say "mission accomplished." $4 a gallon is going to look GREAT a year from now. Oh well, out to the garage! The wrenches, rags and cold floor are waiting! |
