    When are the Democrats in Congress going to demand Congressional hearings because gas prices are going down?

    there are 19 stations in the middle ga area under investigation for gouging...and our gas was relatively cheap...
     
  4. We've got 2.08/2.18/2.28. With the Iranian choice for President of the United States now the President Elect, I'm thinking Iran will retract its demands to cut OPEC's production.

    You know...in glorious support of their new friend and ally, Barack Obama.

    Dropped .10 in a day. 2.36 for reg. 2.99 for diesel. We should've waited to go on our trip for a few weeks. :mad:

    That's true. Hard to argue that.

    This is a family site (or so I've been told) so statements like 'whacking the carrot', 'smacking the sausage' and 'beating the pud', should not be used.
    Nor should 'attacking the one-eyed purple-headed warrior', 'pumping the stump', 'punchin' the munchkin', 'roughing up the suspect', 'shemping the hog', 'slappin the purple headed yogurt pistol', 'waltzing with Willy',.........

    I prefer 'short bus', but yeah, whatever. It may not be big, but it sure is short. What is this thread about? Oh yeah, I paid $2.89 the other day. For the first time in forever it cost me less than $30 to fill my tank. No more 'stroking the nozzle' and praying for it to stop........

    You better get on that sarah, I just washed mine today, and she looks great. I also touched up some paint chips, from daily driving, and she looks even better. It is starting to get to be that time to put her away for the winter, but I am trying to milk it to the bitter end.

    California motorists pay an average, including the federal tax, of 74.9 cents a gallon,
    all levy taxes based on a percentage of the price of gasoline, meaning when the cost of gas goes up, the state's tax take per gallon goes up too.
