Gas is Goin' UP!

Over the last two weeks, gas prices in Eldon have gone up considerably. As of today, unleaded is $2.49 per gallon. And it looks like the price of a barrel of oil continues to increase. I have heard the newsmen say that that oil prices going up is a GOOD THING because it means the global economy is improving. All I know is that it costs me more to fill my tank and that is NOT a good thing.
