The Price of Gas and Crazy Babble
Despite every intention to set down and post something these past few weeks, I haven’t gotten around to it. I actually had a post planned about how I used to love to go to Target and Wal-Mart, but am now starting to despise going. Instead, for tonight, we have a random little rant. Now, most people who know me know that saying that I am not a fan of the president is a major understatement…. I didn’t vote for him either time though, so it’s not my fault. Anyhow, my local chevron station shows cnn on the display screens while the gas is pumping… CNN happened to be airing a little speech given by the president about the war in Iraq and how much good it’s done *rolls eyes.* At the same time I’m being bombarded with this babble that I can’t stop, I’m watching the numbers indicating the cost of my purchase fly by… As the numbers are flying, I’m struck with the irony that I’m about to spend nearly 40 bucks to fill up the same car that I used to spend 12 dollars to fill up back when Clinton was in office and things were good… all while listening to that crazy babble come out of that little speaker.
