Gas panic
For my buds in the south, get your gas now.....I just sat in line for over an hour for the privilage of buying gas. The hurricane has created a panic even though I am a "yankee" southerner in northern Arkansas..

thats not price gouging yet, but im glad they promiss to investigate every allegation. and if one is deemed guilty of it, its a 2,500 dollar fine. and it increases to 25,00 dollars for each time they do it to someone 65 and over. the attorney generals office of your county is serious about this. it is being implemented by rick perrys office. but she just confirmed that at 11:30 this morning, the shell we go to was at $3.33 per gallon. them and the wally world three miles from them as the crow flys are having a price war. and wally world is only $3.33 if you have some stupid card of theirs. |
