I heard on CNN this morning that gas prices jumped $1 in some places because of that oil tanker that was high jacked off the coast of Africa.

Damn, that is crazy. We dropped like 10 cents over the past week....from 2.31 or something, down to 2.24, and last night to 2.19. I can't wait till 91 gets down to $2.00.
