Funny, I was just looking at gas prices yesterday. When Rusty and I vacationed on Nantucket island last year, the price was $2.65 for regular. We balked at that, how could anyone pay that much for gas?!

Now regular is $2.45 and 93 octane (what I fill up with) is $2.65. :(

Depends on where you buy what price you pay.

At Wal-Mart or Kroger, its only $2.05 a gallon. At the name places -- $2.21

Let's see...At the Hess station, it's a bargain-basement $2.03...for 87 Octane. The Audi, which requires premium, is $2.23 per gallon. One good thing is the Audi has an 18.5 gallon tank, and gets just over 26 in the city.

Prof's going to have himself a heart-attack when he comes back...it was hovering between .92 and .88/liter when he left...now it's at 102.9

Hey Prof!! If you see this...fill up BEFORE crossing over...maybe a quick trip to a store to buy a few plastic gas-cans might be a good idea too! ;)

I think of Toolbox whenever I see someone who posts to brag about his expensive new toys and at almost no other time.

Someone who knows you less well than myself might think you were assuming people actually get rich in the "dead tree" business.

Heh heh heh perhaps you know me all too well!

The first thought that flashed into my mind were the names of all those who DID get rich.

But you and I both know that is a thing of the past.

But a long and winding road lies before ye
and the road that diverges in the wood,
less traveled, has certainly yielded fortuitous results
for the man who has trod there...

Had my first $30 fill-up yesterday... with a Dodge Neon. Some lady at the same station was complaining how it cost $50 to fill up her BMW 540i.
