I'm glad to see more down arrows than up arrows. I hope *crossing my fingers but not holding my breath* that gas prices will be able to find their way down sometime soon.

Unfortunately, with the recent pipeline blast in Iraq, I wouldn't be surprised if a barrel of oil approaches $120 (right now it's around $109). So, I'm guessing that we'll be paying at least 25 cents more a gallon by August. In my town that means I'll be paying $3.78 a gallon for regular and $3.95 for premium.
