Is gas really so cheap in America compared to the rest of the world? I'm paying roughly $4 per gallon. It's costs me $60 to fill up my tank and that lasts me about a week. No matter which way you cut it, that's EXPENSIVE.

It's bike to work week in LA, and I read the sign and just burst out laughing. As if biking to places in LA was a feasible idea. If a subway system can't even function efficiently in LA, what makes them think bikes will? LA is too huge, too sprawling to get to where you need using just a bike. Plus, it was 90+ degrees in LA today. By friday it's supposed to be up to 100 degrees. Anyone who tries to bike any considerable distance in that condition is just asking for trouble.

I'm gonna keep paying the gas prices, as high as they are, because I have to. I have to drive. There's just no going around it.
