Up & Down

The waters are up but gas prices are down. It seems like talk about the Mississippi flooding has lessened some, but the water is still barreling south. This is a clip from the local paper, The Times Picayune, and if you can get beyond how dopey the reporter is, it is rather interesting information. On a happier note, I went to get gas yesterday and was pleasantly surprised that prices appear to be dropping. I drove slightly out of my way to go to a Shell station that had regular for $3.49. With my Winn Dixie card I saved 15 cents (it works the same as the Kroger deal for yall Virginia folks) making my price $3.34!! While that is still painful for a 16 gallon+ tank, it certainly is better than $3.79 and above!
