$4 gas?

April
24

I passed a few gas stations this morning selling regular unleaded at $3.99 a gallon.

Is it $4 anywhere yet?

Is it time to put away the SUV?

Two years ago we were complaining about prices above $3. How much did motorists change their habits then?

    It’s long past time to put away the SUVs.

    Had we been smart enough to do that sooner, we probably wouldn’t even be looking at $4/gallon gasoline.

    This is the slow death of 911!!! besides “flower” milk eggs!! one at a time these things that brought us pleasure and health will be gone if we don’t stop the people allowing this to happen. Chances of this outrage stopping is out of our control, seeing that the politicians sleep in “there” pockets! Now I’m locked up in my own house because it’s not fun to take a ride to say hello to a friend in need up-state NY. Cell phone? the only cheep thing we own! This is to far out of hand! Now who’s the big tough-guy?
