I wish Des Moines wasn't so far away. We're generally at $3.68 in town.

There was a mad rush tonight at my station because rumor has it gas will jump anywhere from 50 cents to $1.00 by tomorrow. This sooooo cuts into my bonus!

Heard today some parts of the state it had jumped to $6. I'm not sure if it true or not.

I heard the same thing here and that they are rationing it. I think it has caused widespread panic because every station I passed on the way home had long lines of like 50 cars trying to get gas. It was crazy.

Evidently the rumor mill has wound everybody up everywhere. The Pilot station at the KY border (of PAGAN 09 legend) even let me down today, $3.89/gallon...

Most of the stations locally were around $3.85 yesterday when I was out, but I heard that in Bloomington, some stations were hiking their prices above $5.00 (gouging!) Have to check later today to see how it's doing today.

The paper says there is absolutely no reason for this. There is plenty of gas. People read some stupid email and believe things without confirming it. This is how widespread panic begins and it is not what we need at this time in our country's history. We need to be smarter than the idiots passing around shit on the internet.

Tell me about it. mrs zoid sees on the news that stations are running out of gas & thinks she should run right out to join the flock rushing to be fleeced...meanwhile, today I just need a couple of gallons for the lawn equipment, and there's nor a drop to be had, except for driving 2.7 miles out of my way...
