Default Village's Gas Short?

Returned from fishing on the Gulf today around 4:00 P.M. One gas station on #466 was out of gas and the other had limited pumps working. Do we have a shortage here?

We fill up our car on average once every 3 weeks. 90% of our driving is done using our electric golf carts. Looks like we will be driving the car even less with the gas shortage.

Neat bumper sticker. Went like this: "It's God's job to judge terrorists. Our job is to arrange the meeting!"

I'm up in the Phladelphia area and just filled up for 3.35 gal. It's so funny, while filling up I was musing about how cheap gas is right now. How quickly we forget!!

Amazing how subtly we're programmed to think that gas at $3.35/gallon is cheap.... We are sooooo manipulated!
