(taken in London in 2005 - one of my favorite stencils ever... mayb it'll be my next tatoo)Is the tank half empty?
Not sure what to say but wanted to say something. Here in California, in the San Francisco Bay Area, gas is now more than $4.00 per gallon. That's cheap compared to what most Europeans pay... in many cases, upwards of $10 per gallon once the math is converted to liters and to Euros (no idea what they pay in Japan or China). I currently don't own a car for the first time in my California life, which is actually a blessing in disguise, especially when it comes time to pay the pumpman... or woman or bullet protected attendant. Instead, I use public transportation. Today the black bus driver told me quick and frankly, "machine don't accept paper money, just go on." It was the second time this month that I got a free ride, saving me the $1.75 per ride fee to work. Time to get back on the bike .
(Note: Meanwhile, Exxon continues to post record profits, something I mentioned awhile back on this wee blog.)
