Where did you see $3.07 ???? . Remind me to avoid that station! With the gas capped law going into effect soon, we may very well see this price!

Yeah, they let me out. I just told them straight up that I'm gonna take a break since school starts. They couldnt stop me.

We didnt do a cruise, I just stayed home and slept and later waxed the car.

We went to Vegas.

Maybe the next time they let you out, we can do a cruise. Of course...when you don't have to study...

Lets just see what happens to our gas prices when the gas cap goes into effect in Sept. My guess is that it'll go even higher. We may want to fill up our gas tanks by Aug. 31st.

yup...gas is a killer these days. I know some folks who have to use premium are switching to buying octane boosters in bulk and just using that with reg gas. although I don't know if I'd do that, plus I can't imagine its all that much cheaper. but I guess you gotta try everything these days. I just don't want to think about gas prices in about 3-5 yrs...we'll probably be somewhere around $6/gallon like europe.

what? do you walk to work or something? thats just not fair... although driving my Z to and from work is so pleasurable that I doubt I'd want to live any closer....I guess you have to pay to play

actually, yes i do walk to work. it is right across the street from me. i also go home for my lunch breaks. my wife works less than 2 miles from our home.

i sometimes miss driving, but it is nice to get off of work at 430 and be watching tv on my couch at 435.
