Well, I saw a "gas line" tonight.
Prices went well over $3 in Tulsa in the last 24 hours. The station out here in the boonies was still at $2.89 and there were 7 cars waiting to fill up. The owner, who I know well, said their price would go up tomorrow.

2. The lady running the counter remembered it (as did I) and mentioned it!
And we recalled the 'panic' on 9/11 too.

8. Yeah, BFD. Regular is $3.60 to $3.75 in Chicago. These aren't gas lines.
These are just people lining up to get their gas a little cheaper. It's not as if they're running out.

7. Talked to a guy who filled up his pickup today.
Seventy-five bucks. He suddenly had a keen interest in my motorcycle. B-)
