A sense of humor about gas prices

Saw this on the news tonight. A Shell gas station owner in Town & County, MO, apparently thought the price of premium gas was laughable:

I hate when they try that BS making it $0.15 between grades. $0.10 is more than enough. There use to be one station where i use to live that often had it $0.05 between grades.

LOL/gal is a little out of my price range BTW

RE: A sense of humor about gas prices

We topped $4/gallon for 93 octane earlier this month. I saw today that 87 octane bongwater is almost $4 now (it was around $3.96 or so), and diesel is $4.97/gallon. Sooner or later, if these prices keep up, someone's gonna ram a Kenworth through the state department building as a protest.
