In June we were in Hawaii and the price of gas there was about 40 cents a gallon cheaper than in California. In August we were in Tennessee and we paid $2.37 a gallon. I guess it’s the price we pay for living in the Paradise of California.


No, that’s the price we pay for electing incompetent people into public office. At least they claim to be elected.
