If you want to know what is going on with oil prices.. Go pick up a copy of today's Wall Street Journal. Great article there. I will not go into the ho humm mundane details....Read the WSJ. They are one of the last fundamental "reporting" papers. They give you the facts, minus the ususal "spin".

When we compare our per gallon cost of other items we love..it can make this seem easier, for now.....(Approximates) Milk is around $2.50 a gallon. A gallon of Snapple/Gatorade will run you about $11.00. A gallon of white-out will run $120.00. Start looking around and do a quick comparison of the items we take for granted every day as being "cheap".

I remember the 70s embargo and that was not a walk in the park. We are going to repeat history here. So saddle up ladies and gentlemen and get ready to put the ponies in the stable for a little bit.

I decided to move to within 2 stop lights of my work. I am fortunate. I have that option and can walk. I have recently had my driving privilige suspended, so that was a decision made FOR me. However, once I started dealing with that, I realized it wasn't so bad to walk up to the Wal-mart instead of driving my beloved GT less than 2 miles away, where the poor thing doesn't even reach Normal Operating Temp. Try it! I bought a bike and am doing my best to make a bad situation positive... I suggest we all start doing the same thing.

Good Luck all....and we'll see if oil/gas is a big concern in the next few weeks.
