For those of us who work hard and toil
Finally good news has been inked
The price of a barrel of crude has collapsed
The oil cartel has just blinked
After years of extorting our very last dime
The speculator’s price fix has plunged
It gives me a grin that they feel our pain
Getting their record of profits expunged
The Saudi’s, the Venie’z, the Russians, Iraq
Must now do with fewer Rolls Royces
Cut back on the harems and political scarems
For they’re all costly financial choices
So let’s all sit back and enjoy the reprieve
For the monopoly’s dilemma will pass
The break will be short I fear to report
They’ll eventually crow “kiss my gas!”

Sorry about the rant..

because the prices are plummeting..... what a douche bag
And then, all too soon, we will once again, pay more.

It's good to see you posting again. I always love your humor.
Unfortunately, this good financial fortune for the everyday driver prolongs the time when we get smart and move quickly to vehicles that don't burn fossil fuels. Only gasoline prices above five dollars per gallon will do that.

WELL DONE !!!
AND A BIG ... AMEN !!!
This amount looks great..I hope it's coming our way. $2.69 in
our area. The ink isn't dry I'm afraid it won't last till the
4th of July!
