Amazing, I heard it's the darkies in Africa and those bloody Iranians that are making the price go up! Fighting over nothing ...again.

Also why does it indicate a 10% cost for refining gas and a 18% cost for refining diesel?

I thought diesel needed less refining!?

I also like the severance check the outgoing ceo of enron got... Did anyone hear this load of crap???!!!! and yes you are reading this correct.... $400,000,000.00. yes 400million. I think I am in the wrong business. They showed a gross profit of 32billion last year. And it's the saudis doing this??? I don't think so. I wish our wonderful president would do something about this before his pockets get too overfilled with oil money. I am sick of paying up the yin-yang for fuel and everything else because of it. I also don't like paying $3.00 a gallon for fuel so I can pay 7% interest on my home loan either. just keep raising the prime they will pay it.

Just took another .10c kick last night here. $2.89 Should have filled the aux tank yesterday. It makes no sense - - their supplies of diesel are high due to the warm winter. Well, maybe it does make sense - - they have to pay those execs. How about 1.2 billion in stock options - - figure how that makes any sense - - no way, Jose. Please, someone find how to run these suckers on water and let's get those nuke power plants under construction - - and drill for more wells. We better!!!!!

Fighting over nothing? You better wake up! Your eyes are closed!

The Iranian President has already predicted the next armageddon.

They believe their God will give them the shortcut to heaven if they cut the throat of a Christian (or any "non believer"). They've been very busy practicing this recent genocide for 30 years while we've looked the other way.

FYI:

Fuel prices don't mean squat if small nuke or a electromagnetic pulse weapon goes off above your head.

Crobtex don't get too bent out of shape. The crooks that own the gas staions in this town have had it at 2.89 for 2-1/2 weeks. And they claim they aren't making any money off of fuel

Dear Limbaugh said gas should be $3.70 a gallon. I guess that's his way of defending the empire and I'm supposed to suddenly realize that I'm not being sceerewed but instead they're cutting me a break on the price of gas. Gas and diesel both are just over $3 a gallon at our nearest Amoco BP station. One being more than the other doesn't make the other cheap.

Slim, if you suspect gouging, report them. If they're found to be making any money off of their gas pumps, they'll be lined up in front of the firing squad. The big oil companies are the only ones allowed to gouge the public. The little guy leasing the property his station is on isn't allowed to make too much.

Local station that carries B20 (biodiesel blend) is @ $2.92 gal

Breaking out a couple 5 gallon jugs of my $2.47 a gallon diesel (bought a few weeks ago) from the garage.

It's near the Pentagon across from the Navy Annex.

801 S. Joyce Street.

Just took on $71.50 worth of B-20 this morning @ $2.92 gallon.
Saving my 30 gallons of $2.47 diesel for a rainy day.
