Even though my car takes 87 octane, this is starting to get ridiculous. 10 cents in just a couple of days. Wow.
Anywho, I am now starting to ride my bicycle now. It's pretty damn fun and plus in downtown SF, it is even better than having a car. Nothing feels better than passing cars on the side.

I've driven my Brother's R6 but they get uncomfortable (face down *** up) after awhile.

so yeah. i think after a president is elected the economy will stabalize a bit. Its always ****ty before an election thats when gas hit 2 the last big big election. now we wish we paid 2.
in a few years we will be wishing we paid 4. and the cycle of life goes on.
that saudi leader didnt want to pump more oil for us. not that he didnt want to i think, but more he didnt want to pump more for bush. when the next prez comes in and ask that same thing i bet it happens.
i think that saudi leader was trying to make a point that bush has deminishing power right now. ( no i am not knocking the prez) Its to bad though, we could really use the relief at the pump.
I dont expect to see to much relief at the pump. nothing substantial anyway.
not til after election.
And who knows how much gas will be by then. and at that point we may find these current gas prices acceptable compared to what they are then.
This is the fastest i have ever seen gas prices go up. i mean $.60 in some places. That happens at least over 2 years and much more gradual.
i mean damn $.60 in just a couple months. WTF?
The thing that kills the most if this cycle here:
OK diesel prices go up to $5.00+. SO what uses diesel. buses and semi trucks. What delievers food and people. Semi-s and buses.
Now bus fare goes up and semi trucks pay more for gas. Well semis send us all of our food, clothes, car stuff. SO that is reflected in the price of food and fare and consumer goods.
NOw the gas is effecting the USPS. They have to pay more for their mail trucks gas so now they raise the price of the stamp. it is supposed to go up and cent or 2 in the near future im pretty sure.
i mean its just a big snowball of ****.
