The Gas Madness
According to USA Today, some areas in Atlanta were selling gas for $6.19 a gallon. Holy Cow!
A few personal observations of the recent gas madness
- I was taking a road trip this weekend (yeah, call me crazy). When I stopped at a small town in Indiana to fill my tank and restock my soft drinks, there was a fight between a truck driver and a store clerk. Indiana is one of the states that has suffered from the severe gas shortage this weekend, therefore, the station started enforcing a 50-gallon-per-customer rule. Apparently, the giant truck needed more than 50 gallons of gas and the driver was not going to let the new rule to stop him from filling his truck. “This is not a pick up truck!” the driver argued. It was a total chaos.
- I just noticed that my piggy bank is losing a lot of weight because of my driving this weekend. The most pricy gallon I ever filled was $3.59 for 87 in Indiana on Friday.
- My usual plane ticket between Denver and Nashville has doubled in the last a few weeks from mid $200’s to high $400’s
- I posted my rock climbing bio on an outdoor website to seek climbing partners in Colorado Springs. In my bio, I think I mentioned that I like to snowboard this winter. I didn’t find any climbers, but I have gotten a few emails from some boarders who are already in the process of finding rides to share. One guy said, “i am not a rock climber but way into boarding, if you are looking for someone to car pool with this winter, let me know, because we may be at 4 bucks a gallon by the time the snow starts falling.”
- To promote this year’s blood drive, my company’s regional office has announced an incentive plan. A lucky donor has a chance to win a $25 BP gas gift certificate. Yo! Give some blood and I will give you some gas in return!

Yeah, price sucks these days, I saw a shot of a gas station in Virginia, it was selling regular for $5.89, and that was Thursday. I’m don’t even want to think about what the price is in California. If it keeps up, price for everything will be going up, and standard of living is going down the drain.

The average nationwide gas price has passed $3 mark today. Actually,Maryland is the worst… We now tied with 1981’s record… let’s see what happens in the next 15 days..
Cyco Miko said,

So how much do you think the price will drop when the shortage problem is solved?
Yuna said,
September 7, 2005 @ 12:09 am
I think we will break our record this time given the oil refinery problems… If it goes beyond $4, then it’s time for everybody to get a bike and stay fit.. not a bad deal..
