Way Too High

I paid more than I have ever paid for gas this morning, $2.79. It’s so bad I think Pam and I will start carpooling to work every day. Her new office is on the way for me and our schedules are the same. I’m sure she’ll appreciate not having to drive in the morning and a passenger will be nice for a change.

People with recreational vehicles must be hurting now too. I heard it takes hundreds of dollars to fill the tank for a weekend’s worth of fun. I’m not sure how people can afford to use them very often.

The car companies better get in gear and start developing more high mileage cars. The Toyota Prius is a great start and the skyrocketing sales of this vehicle shows the interest by people to drive gas-saving cars.

And finally the President should put his foot down, get our troops out of Iraq and be concerned with the U.S. and it’s problems like this gas crisis.
