29. Gas prices are down? Could have fooled me!

Fri May 8, 2026, 10:09 AM

Friday

I have receipts from several months ago with mid-grade gas prices marked at three and some thing per gallon. More recently I’ve been paying four and something in Colorado and New Mexico and FIVE and something in the Rocky Mountain high country. Who do I believe, Donald John or my gas receipts and my lying eyes?

Answer: the latter two.

And what’s more, I expect petrol prices to go further UP, not down!
