An hour ago I was sitting in the barber’s chair when a guy comes in and says the line for gas at the Quality Mart in Lewisville is crazy long. Then another guy comes in and says that a station in Yadkinville is charging $5.99 a gallon and that the Citgo on the corner of Dull Rd and Styers Ferry is at $4.49 a gallon. On the way home I confirm the second price when I pass the station and I also remember that I need gas for the drive to Salisbury tonight.

I’m now sitting at Costco where the price is $3.55 a gallon and the lines are 10 deep at all six pumps. I also heard the attendant tell someone else that it has been like this all day. Sheesh. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry
