$1.47.9....the price of gas...

[Highway61]

when Bush took office. (Just in case anyone forgot) :grr:

Edit...Good grief, I made a mistake...send me to Gitmo

1. Don't you mean 1.49 and 99/100ths?

I don't think we were paying one hundred and forty-nine dollars a gallon.

4. Yeah--that'll come some time in August

I also remember when Clinton was savagely attacked in the press and in the halls of Congress when gas inched toward an unthinkable $2.00 per gallon. Outrageous!

5. Maybe that's 147.9 Taiwan dollars?

2. Dang... gas has dropped from 147.9 to 4.119....

during Bush's term!

3. It's been between $.90 and $1.40 my entire driving career until Bush stole the WH.

Thank you Mr. "oil man" President.

7. I remember paying 40-45 cents/gallon

and that was in 1978 after the first oil shock.

The Canadian price in summer '78 was about 55 Canadian cents (CDN$1= 87 US cents) per Canadian gallon (5 US quarts).

How times have changed.

6. I just got home from work and hubby had gone to town to gas the car $4.0999

:wow:

last fill up was $3.94999

15 cents in a WEEK!!

9. Right?

Talk about being raped at the pump. The oil companies "buy up" any other "alternatives" to gas and keep it hidden away until ALL the oil is GONE...that way, they can price the alternatives to what they want when it comes to be. Meanwhile here, I was reminded I put the decimal in the wrong place (which I did, I just came off of a very long shift...so sorry) but...that is why the bastards get away with what they do. The focus shouldn't be on the error the person made on the home team, but the man handling the controls behind the curtain.

8. Gas currently averages $4.50 in parts of LA.

It will shortly reach $5.00.

Got impeachment?

10. Oh, I am so with you
