Well, now here in Mid-Michigan gas jumped a full 70 cents a gallon to
$3.04. I guess it's only fair since we are one of the only countries
that hasn't been putting out as much money towards gas as other
countries.

Anyways, we're ranked 50th for the worst economies of the U.S. This is just killing us even more.

Maybe if it gets high enough we can get over our addiction to using a fossil fuel. Go biodiesel.

Okay, that was insanely wierd. Today (when I first posted this) gas had
supposedly gone up to $3.04. However, it was one gas station in this
town that had posted that(accidentally). So, all over this town there
was panic to get gas at all the other gas stations that were still in
the $2.30's. When I got to work(Kroger, which also has a fuel station)
they had already called the fuel companies, who have been recieving
calls all day about this, but they said the gas was not going to go up.
So, everyone pretty muched freaked out over a rumor, it was very cool
to see, except when they put me out to the fuel station to cashier.
