Unbelievable
I worked with a reporter years ago who used to break up that word into multiple syllables for dramatic effect. It would come out something like this:
Un. Be. LEEEEEEVE-able.
I thought of her when I went to get gas this afternoon. I only put $15.00 worth in my car, but the unfortunate person who had last used the pump must have decided to be bold and fill up the tank:
Gas at this station is still under the $4.00 mark, but not by much. This is the highest amount I’ve ever seen in a gas pump. And I’d be thrilled if it was the highest I ever see.
I hope they can afford groceries this month.

I saw $111.00 at a pump next to me the other day and just about cried for them. TOTALLY insane! I’m spending about $300/month average and it’s just about to kill me. I can’t imagine spending $100 or more every time I fill up! Something’s got to give, though I doubt it will!
