This will sound like a internet rumor, but... my mother-in-law just called to tell me that the mother of a friend of Quadro's brother called her. This friend's mom owns a gas station. She told MIL that gas prices are going up 57 cents tomorrow morning due to the hurricane effects on the off-shore drilling rigs in the Gulf.

I don't know if it's bullshit, but I doubt it, and what's the harm in filling up tonight even if it is? I imagine that if it does go up that much, it will be temporary. I know that it shouldn't affect gas stations this quickly, but that hasn't stopped them from fucking with prices before.

So, go buy gas tonight if you're able, just in case. And I thought $2.57/gallon was bad!
