Well unfortantually we have four girls here in the setup department that I work in and only two of them work. Hard to believe that I am one of them right?? With how often I am on the board. I get all of my work and others people work done and still have time to play around so you can imagine what the other two that do nothing do.

Gas prices just hit $3.01 here in Springfield, it was $2.55 this morning. Word is that the spike started in Lincoln. Apparently police have been placed at filling stations due to some fights breaking out.

Yikes

Well 1,000's of pumping stations in the gulf have been shut down. The entire area near the mouth of the mississippi is devistated (Many many oil companies down there).

The lack of power, and transportation has shut down almost all the refineries down there.

Cool... It was so clear out last night.

My parents went to the Dells on Saturday and took the Duck ride right at sunset and got some beautful pictures of Lake Delton with the sun going down. I'll see if I can post some.

The second i read this I went and filled up while it was still at 2.69 here, I bet it'll be up to $3 by nightfall.

Thanks for saving me like 6 or 7 bucks because I was about empty.

I just came back in from some field work. Apparently the local gas stations don't have their story straight yet. One local company started the jump with $3.01 this morning. Those that were still at $2.55 became overloaded and moved to $2.95 or $2.96. Then we have the national chains (BP, shell, and Speedway) that only went up to $2.79.

Wal-mart / Murphy Oil is still at $2.56 and has police out directing traffic.

Oddly enough media is reporting that the nationwide average should be $2.75 at the end of the week, and the local company that started the jump was also the same company that went from $1.4x to $1.99 a gallon on 9/11/01. Of course the other stations went up to match on that day.

It happens so fast doesn't it?

Sometimes you are feeling the feelings before you even know what is going on!! Then you are like "What the heck... why am I feeling this"

I wish you all the luck SFC!! You seem happy and that is all that matters :D
