There Goes Gas Again

August 27th, 2008 by tad

Just when I thought we were on the right track with gas prices starting to go back down Hurricane Gustav comes and messes it all up. Oil prices rose this morning as Tropical Storm Gustav approached the Gulf of Mexico and threatened to take out our U.S. oil facilities. That’s right U.S. crude rose $2.63 to $118.90 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange as the National Hurricane Center projected Gustav could resume hurricane status and touch the Louisiana coast by Monday. This sucks. I mean here we are finally starting to be able to actually drive again and gas is now going to shoot back up to God knows where. Hell, I am going to have to get another job just to pay the gas bill.
