Is it just us hillbillies or is everybody gettin' beat up with gas prices these last few days? We're up to $2.43 for regular unleaded - I'm afraid to look at the diesel price.

Heck yes. No different than cattle or anything else.
Water prices still have me steaming. I remember when you could pull into a "Service Station" and there was a water fountain. Drinking water was free. You could fill your glass. Now a 16 ounce bottle is $1.19. Cokes are usually cheaper than water, which doesn't make any sense at all.

If you buy a gasoline contract for April which is the current contract month at present, you are expected to take delivery of same. And you can purchase contracts further out in the year. However, the current pump price of gasoline is based on the current month's contract price, not the price of a contract for June or July.
