[UndertheOcean]

I am one of the lucky people who live 5 miles away from work, so I'm considering buying a bike , and keeping the car for odd errands.

Luckily I can use the campus gym to shower before showing up at the office, it would be embarrassing to stink.

1. $3.78? That's cheap!! Buy all you can and store it.

[UndertheOcean]

2. Is it ?

won't it just evaporate ?

[GodlessBiker]

5. Close the container. And, yes, that's cheap. We pay around 4.15

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

4. Yeah, here in burbs of Chicago it's more like $4.09 a gallon.

In the gas station across the street from my building unleaded is going for 4.19 though. Needless to say, I don't fill up their very often.

[Cant trust em]

25. My trip would have been cruising the West and going to Nat'l Parks

I love getting in the car, picking some music, and just getting out.

[SammyWinstonJack]

26. Yeah I have fond memories of doing just that when I was young. Sadly it's not possible anymore,

I guess. x(

[SammyWinstonJack]

[TomInTib]

14. I was watching a guy change prices on a sign yesterday in San Rafael.

And right next to him was a guy on the sidewalk who was holding a sign that read "Need Money for Gas".

[SammyWinstonJack]

21. Sad.

[LaPera]

7. $4.23 a gallon for regular in Eureka, CA (Humboldt Co.).

8. Don't forget that 9/10ths of a cent

16. Fate of Bush* and his cronies --- The 40 Thieves?

"The lead thief pretends to be an oil merchant in need of Ali Baba's hospitality, bringing with him mules loaded with thirty-eight oil jars, one filled with oil, the other thirty-seven with the other thieves (the two missing members were the scouts previously sent to find the house, who were killed for their failure). Once Ali Baba is asleep, the thieves plan to kill him. Again, Morgiana discovers and foils the plan, killing the thirty-seven thieves in their oil jars by pouring boiling oil on them. When their leader comes to rouse his men, he discovers that they are dead, and escapes."

[bdamomma]

11. if you can do this go for it, ride a bike to work.

[Greyhound]

15. They fear that this is their last hurrah, and they are all diving head-first

into the trough to get as much as they can grab before the payment comes due for their loot-fest.

[kestrel91316]

17. $3.95 here this AM, right on schedule. I predicted $4 by Memorial Day.

[Shine]

18. Hell, is that all?? It's $4 + here in the Santa Cruz area.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

24. And we haven't hit the peak driving season of summer yet

Something tells me this is going to be a major topic of discussion here for months to come. That old Chinese curse about living in interesting times is hitting us hard.
