Gas is over $4 a gallon

I can’t believe that we have actually come to where today I saw for the first time, the gas station down the street at the local corner store has now placed a number 4 after the $ sign for a gallon of gas. This has got to stop, it is affecting so many folks in this town and is consistently a very hot topic of conversation at the pub every evening.

I’m thinking about breaking out my bicycle that I haven’t ridden since God knows when, but they say it is easy to get back on a bike and take off. It certainly would be a healthy choice along side with the economical side of it. The only problem with riding a bike is that we have a very strict helmet law in this town for people who ride bicycles and I’m not crazy about wearing a helmet one bit. I mean after you take the darn thing off you have to deal with helmet head hair, ugh!
