Kids, When I Was Growing Up, Gas Was Less Than 2 Bucks Per Gallon!


I took this for in Aug 2003 for 2 reasons, I was learning to take night photos, and I couldn't believe the high price of gas. Posted by Picasa

    When I first started learning how to drive, gas was .59 per gallon. That was in 1977. Has anyone seen 3 yet?

    Oh how I love for 1.76. It wasn't long ago that it was .99. Yesterday it was 2.67. I took a picture of the pump yesterday.

    $3.49 in Reading, PA for regular. F'ing regular?!

    I pumped gas all through high school, and it was 90 cents a gallon then. I heard today that the oil companies are making over A MILLION DOLLARS PER DAY IN PROFIT.

    Yes, I said PROFIT. Sick bastads.... give us a little love.

    Thanks for the great bloggie, JK.

    I topped off today at 3.29 only because George Bush told me not to.

    I was looking through the archives to see if I had any photos of gas cheaper than this.

    Does anyone have one? No photoshopping! Let's see whatcha got!
