Prices here seem to have stabilized this past week.

Most stations are at either 189.9 or 199.9.

The Republican Party is led by and supported by the most hate-filled, bigoted assholes it has ever been my misfortune to encounter. The core objective of their entire agenda is to transform this country into something just short of a feudal state, complete with its own version of a "landless peasantry".

Pffft. You go on your rant above and then tell me I'm partisan. How myopic of you.

Oh, incidentally, Ft Lauderdale's mayor is a Dem.

The good times are over

Gas prices are up about 30 cents a gallon over the past two weeks.

Most of it came last night when they all spiked by about 20 cents.

We're back over $2 bucks again.

Good thing too.

Traffic was getting crazy around here.

Everyone seemed to be using the low prices as an excuse to get and and drive around.

$189.9! Great News!

Now I can see why Jeb wants to become president.

It does seem like they've got up a large bit.

I blame Obama

I'm blaming the nearest target of opportunity, which happens to be you.

Gas prices moving up

Gas prices bottomed out here about 2 months ago at about a buck and a half a gallon.

Since then they have steadily crept up and now average about $1.89.9.
