Our gas just went up again (Missouri) to 2.97. It seems like it

[leftyladyfrommo]

goes up .10 about every third or fourth day now.

I just wish we had some idea why it is going up. Besides at the whim of the oil companies who will now have profits in the billions and billions every quarter.

I wish Congress would really get on this.

1. St Louis was at 3.15 over the weekend

just dropped to 3.09 this morning.

2. I'm in Kansas City. I'm going to have to raise my prices here

pretty soon. It costs me so much to drive. I hate to do that but I think I'm not going to have a choice.

3. Let me see. Our Pres is an oil man and Vp is a military industrialist

so we are at war in oil country and we are paying record prices for gas, who-da-thunk-it

4. If you're opposed to oil company profits then stop buying their product

Just my modest proposal

5. Believe me I would if I could think of a way.

But I have to drive to my customers houses. Some days I have to drive quite a lot.

I think it would be fun to have a wind car of some kind. Like a prairie schooner or something. Big sail. Go flying down the freeway. But I don't think that is going to happen.

6. $3.70 on the CA north coast....

You can find it for slightly less-- $3.56 at Costco last Saturday, for example-- but most stations are charging $3.67-$3.70.

7. Why is yours always so much more expensive?

I think that is true on both coasts.

8. That's it - I'm driving to Missouri for my gas

I paid $3.55 yesterday.
