We drove back from Tampa today and saw several gas stations

at $3.8=
5,
down from 4+ last week. Later I did some price shopping

for dies=

the telephone since we are getting ready to head north for

the summ=
er
on the trawler. After the first couple of calls I was

expecting
something close to $4 but literally struck oil on the

fourth call.
We've got a truck arriving at the house tomorrow morning for
$3.69/gal, all taxes included.


Thats funny, the price of gas up here is set to go UP 6.4

cents per
litre overnight. This, blamed on the RISE in the price of a

barrel o=
f
oil.


The news says the average is down a penny but the stations

near me ar=
e
still the same from what I can tell. I would like to see it

dip, even
if only for a few days because I am down to my last couple

cans of ga=
s
for the boat.


$4.09 for 89octane 10% ethanol blend here.
Last time I bought boat gas I got 50 gallons for $3.57 or so. It
lasted me almost 2 months but we were busy and did not boat as

much as
usual. If I don't see a big drop soon I may just buy a few cans

and
watch the price.


I would buy right now. Unions in Yemen have just caused some

shutdowns=
.
Libya taps are off, a Canadian pipeline also went down for major
unplanned maintenance and news is a shortage is coming from Saudi.


By August you might very well see north of $5 at the pumps

because add
in currency devaluation (inflation).

If your not into medicine, science, international trade and live in the
US and never traveled, they might not know. Canadians have plenty of
myths about US life too.

Take a look at ANY country, more debt is more problems. So why do we
allow our governments more debt? Selfishness, greed, denial, ignorance?
