I think this was supposed to be funny - but with gas rising as much as 53 cents a gallon yesterday in our area - you do start to wonder what you might have to give up in order to put fuel in your vehicle. I mean looking over a budget, you may start to think things like "Gas.... Food.....Gas.....Food - which one should we get this week?" I expect soon we will see men in business suits standing on the street corner with the little computer generated signs saying, "Will Work For Gas". My friends and I, living in a rural area miles from town have taken to making as many trips as we can together and taking turns driving. It's not funny anymore - how high will these gas prices rise??!?
