Got Gas?

I have to tell you about something from my vacation that hit me after the news I heard yesterday about the amount of money our oil companies , and Iraq, are making. We actually drove up the eastern seaboard hitting Philly, Boston, then back to Northern Jersey and New York. The oddest thing - in case you didn't know - is that it is a New Jersey state law that drivers are not permitted to pump their own gas. So, you've got to figure that the price of gas there would be astronomical. Not so, Exxon breath!!! Gas in New Jersey is, at least, 10 cents a gallon cheaper than most places here and, in some cases, 15 cents cheaper. Once again, getting us closer to proving that this "oil crisis" is nothing but hype. Why, in the shadow of the nation's largest city (with VERY expensive real estate) would gas be the cheapest in the northeast......with attendants pumping the gas to boot???? Go figure!!!!

What do you think?
