Gas just went up to $3.12 a gallon here (reg unleaded). 2 weeks ago it was less than $3, $4 is just around the corner.

Gas here in Dayton---3.45/gal.

I laugh at your SUV, sir. I laugh.

I love my truck, I only get 16mpg but it will be a long time before I give it up.

I got gas at about 10:15 last night, in the ghetto.
It took quite awhile to pump the gas and then answer a bunch of questions about my truck to a deaf guy that was cleaning up trash.
Anyway, the whole time I was there, the line at the window of the glass booth, was from 1 to 4 people deep, buying cigars and individual (not packaged) cigarettes.
Must be a recession.

btw... tonight gas was 10 cents a gallon higher.

He knows that I'm sure. I think he was pointing out that they still have money for luxuries even though the talking heads tell us we're all flat broke and can't get food.

The market for rolling papers must be booming. (don't worry, be happy.)

Here is an interesting article that breaks down how the cost of a gallon of gas is divided.

Who gets rich off $3 gas - who doesn't

The guy running the service station makes just a few cents, while crude oil producers take the biggest chunk.

Offshore drilling, Newfoundland. Look at the price per-day of the rig!
ENSCO International Incorporated announced that the Company has entered into a letter of intent from a customer for a drilling contract for ENSCO 8503, an ultra-deepwater
semisubmersible rig currently under construction. The contemplated contract will be for a two-year term, with an option for the customer to extend the contract at mutually agreed rates and term. The aggregate day rate revenue for the two-year term is expected to be approximately $372 million. The base operating rate is $510,000 per day, and the day rate will be subject to adjustment for variances in operating costs from current levels.
