CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) -- Gasoline prices have surged to a record nationwide average of $3.07 per gallon, nearly 20 cents higher than two weeks earlier, oil industry analyst Trilby Lundberg said Sunday. The previous record was $3.03 per gallon on Aug. 11, 2006.
That, of course, is supposed to be the national average. Here, at the Bar and Grill, prices were steady through most of April going from $3.21 to $3.27 and then $3.31. After that, it went to $3.35, $3.39, $3.45, and it is sitting pretty at $3.55. That's $0.34 since March 20, 2007.
Let's all make sure we do our part to ensure the CEO's at Exxon and the like make another $60 BILLION in quarterly profits. You all come back to the pump, now, you hear?

We are getting raped by the oil companys and no one will do anything about it. They are simply profit driven, and that sadly, is the bottom line. All of their excuses, past, present, and future, are and forever will be a lie to the Americn people. That is the only truth in it.
If you can't beat em, join em and buy their stock. There's money to be made.
