The Shamrock Court Motel in Sullivan, Missouri. It can be yours for $125,000. Lots of possibilities. Actually, now you're too late. Missouri's Roamin' Rich bought it.

Goin' By Air

Thanks a lot GRBs, and especially those of you at BO, Big Oil!!

Can you believe it, the Axis of Evil is using the horrible thing that happened in Japan to raise gas prices?

Last November, I ended up spending $400 for gas on the truck that I drove to North Carolina. And that is not including the two nights at a motel and food along the way. It is always a two-day trip to drive the 900+ miles to NC.

With the truck getting 17 miles now (down from 22) and gas prices around $3.50 here in Illinois, even though it will be about 20 cents cheaper elsewhere on the trip (except West Virginia and western North Carolina), that is still 50 cents a gallon more expensive than last November.

Yesterday, I made arrangements to fly Continental Airlines from Milwaukee to Raleigh-Durham, with one stop in Cleveland for $319 with all taxes and another $50 for luggage.

Here's Hoping I Don't Have to Always Keep Flying. I Really Like Driving. =--RoadDog
