Station by my house that I always use with from 2.58 for regular to 2.75, insane. And they're usually on the cheap side compared to others in town. I'm gonna go buy some rain pants and start driving the bike every single day. I just need to figure out how to keep my feet dry.

I have the solution.
Come and live in Ireland for a week or 2 and while you're here buy a car for twice as much money as you're used to paying, then insure and tax it for the same markup and then pay over £5.20 a gallon for petrol. Then you can move on to buying a house

Thats why we don't live in Ireland.
On the news they are saying Bush may use some of the oil reserves to help fight these gas prices.

I could be incorrect. But as I heard it, basically its just oil that has been "saved" and is sitting at various storage facilities througout the US. Once again, as I heard it this **** has been saved for just this type of occurance.
