There's a reason that my tag for gasoline is "It Just Keeps Going Higher."
Labor Day's come and gone. Shouldn't prices be dropping?
$3.559/gallon at the place we've been using lately, and I only went there because a local supermarket promotion was cutting off (in my case) 20 cents a gallon. Cheapest gas in Mandeville at the moment is $3.529. Just a couple miles up the road, it's $3.389 in Covington. (That's ridiculous enough by itself.)
$3.359 a gallon is still RAPE!
I doubt I could afford to fill the tank these days if I still had my Festiva. (For those not in the know, the Ford Festiva only had an eight-gallon gas tank and got about 40 mpg.) Of course, we now have a Ford Explorer with a twenty gallon tank and (at the moment) a quarter of the fuel economy. I'm paying so much for gas that we can't even afford to do a tune-up!
Probably need the tune-up because of the damned ethanol they're mixing with the gas nowadays... and now they're increasing the mixture? Thanks for killing my lawnmowers, you bastards. When the Zoning Board decides to bitch about the overgrown yard, I'm forwarding the summons your way.
To hell with the world economy, OPEC, corn-state lobbyists and Tea Partiers. Ban oil speculation. I want fucking price controls. And get your goddamned ethanol out of my gasoline!
You know, I think I'll label this a Just Plain Wrong as well.

Just Plain Wrong: Ubuntu Edition
Normally Genuine Windows is Just Plain Wrong by itself...
...but then watch the vid! I lol'd, even though it's a year old.
I wonder if you can still do that...

Our Official "Just Plain Wrong" Video of the Week!
This Is Just Plain Wrong!
The video loads a little slowly, but audio is (surprisingly) in English. All I will tell you, my two readers, is that it involves a bridge, a firetruck and an idiot. Or possibly one of the most unfortunate of souls... you be the judge.
