Gasoline Prices

Speaking of gas prices, out of high school I worked on a drilling rig. Now even at that time it cost AMOCO a cool mil a day to have our rig on site, and say an average of 30 days start to finish. Now days most oil comes from abroad so I am sure labor is a little cheaper, but then it has to be piped to a loading facility and then tankered to America, I have no idea what "That" costs, then it has to be unloaded...Piped to a refinery for them to do their part...piped again to distribution points all over the country and trucked to your local gas station. Now even "I" realize that everybody has to make their own 25 cents profit so say at $2.45 - $2.65 per gallon.

So are you ready for the "BIG" question ???

Really Ready ??

How deep do you have to drill for milk that it's $3 - $4 per gallon ???

Maybe by the next post I will have figured out where the National "Bread" Reserves are buried.....Must be deep at $2.00 a loaf.

Trivia from an twisted mind....
