So the first word that comes to mind is that nasty word that some people don’t like, but I can’t say it describes it better. If you have seen anything here you probably know what word I\u2019m talking about, otherwise read a few posts back. Anyways, yep, $2.79 is the going price for 87 octane gas. Will it break $3.00 in our area? Who knows, all I know is its all a scam. Oil shortage? Yea right! Maybe its time for us to break into our stock in Alaska? It rather sucks remembering when I was a kid and my mom filled up our 1989 Oldsmobile Delta 88 and we would upset when we paid more than $20 to fill it up. Given this is a 16 gallon tank, we can soon figure out that its not much more than a dollar a gallon. Well 15 years later that is the car I drive today. Filling it up, a whopping 15 gallons was $41, what a rip off. I\u2019m sure the gas doesn\u2019t cost more to produce than it did 15 years ago, so who\u2019s pocketing all this money?
\nNot that I don’t have much more to say about being ripped off, lets change the subject to talk about a city in Illinois that doubles its population during the spring and fall. Yea, DeKalb is vacant during the summer and massive amounts of people migrate back when school starts. The day to hibernate, stay at home, avoid DeKalb at all costs is Thursday. This is the first day the dorms can move in, so driving around DeKalb is horrible. Not that the rest of the weekend is much better, but not as bad as clueless freshman driving around for the first day. I like the big road construction signs that you see out on 88, in DeKalb here with \u201cMove in date is Aug 18\u201d \u201cDrive Safely\u201d flashing back and forth. Just shows you what a mess it\u2019s going to be. Anyway for those who have been here for a while, you probably already know this, for those who haven\u2019t, beware.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
