Gassed !

I thought buying a 2005 4-wheel drive vehicle was such a great idea when gas was $1.95 per gallon...now I'm wishing for some battery power! The financial pundits tell us that the oil companies aren't gouging us....EXCUSE ME.....4 Billion...that's $4,000,000,000 in quarterly profits (a record for the industry) isn't a tad over the top? You would think that all of the oil in the Gulf of Mexico gushed out into the ocean or something and was lost forever.....not the case. Yes a few of the refineries had a bit of damage, a few of the offshore rigs had a bit of damage......4 BILLION worth?....I don't think so.
The bicycle is coming out of mothballs this week.....I hope everyone cuts back and the prices come down soon.
