It's a Texas thing. You should try it sometime.

Wow, that's crazy. Seems to be hovering around $3.70 here.

It was $3.99 here for a long time and now it's down to $3.79. Only a dollar a gallon too high.

3.69 a little north, -3.49 if you want to wait in line @ Costco. Although it's been dropping, so it may be lower. Haven't fueled up in a couple weeks. I need to.

Did a little work around the house, now it is slacker time.

Normally that's true. Except for today I was at the airport loading an Atlas booster on the plane headed for the Cape. It was miserably humid out there. Now it's off to mow the yard.
