Oh how I wish there were a road here in NJ that I have not taken! It seems as if all I do is jump in the car and drive here and there and everywhere. But I'm not alone... no Siree! I have tons and tons of company whilst driving on the busy roadways. My question is - How can everyone afford such a luxury? This week the price of gasoline went up 12 cents per gallon in and around my neighborhood. What is going on? Is this just a gearing up for another holiday week-end to gouge the metropolitan drivers? After all, why not rape the American consumer who is out to enjoy those Columbus Day sales? Or what about those traveling to a recreational activity? Let's just make it even more painful for them to save a buck.
Well, my only suggestion (and something that I will attempt to do myself) is STAY HOME and wait until the "Holiday" is over. Maybe gasoline will shed the 12 cent increase.
I think I'll just do some work around the house and go for a nice long walk... if only, if only.

Ann...I'm sure it comes as no surprise that big business tends to take advantage of people. Yet some people see nothing wrong with Gov. Christie trying to bust up the unions...
ReplyDeleteSo true - teaching will be an even more difficult job... if that is even possible.
