That's 30,000 extra miles of fun for me!!

And a good thing, the news had a report this morning that kick-**** Michigan has the 3rd highest gas prices in the country. We even beat Hawaii! Only Illinois and Cali top us!

I saw a sign today on the pump that said that the visa card prepay limit was $50, and the mastercard limit was $75. It doesnt have anything to do with the gas stations it was visa and mastercard that set the limits.

I filled up with my Visa card the other day and it automatically cut off at $75, that's the most I have ever put into my truck at one fill-up, but I don't usually let my tank drop below 1/4 tank left.

Oh and our gas here in southern Mississippi has gone from $2.86 to $3.04 to $3.12 all in the last week, went from $3.04 to $3.12 in the matter of 3 hours.

Collectively call for across the board assassinations of oil executives with open letters calling for the lowering of prices to realistic levels and that the killings of execs will continue each week until demands are met . . .

In no way am I advocating this, I'm just saying that with all the possible things that could be done this is one possible thing . . . that's all I'm saying.
