You know, everyone in Middle Tennessean just needs to calm down a bit on the gasoline freak-outs. Friday’s little mini-run on gas was caused by one thing and one thing only: people being too worried about there being a run on gas. We caused it because we were scared of it. It’s just like a run on [...]

Item # 34 on the list of ways you’re paying for higher gas prices is… increased ambulance service costs. Hip, hip, hooray! Because ambulances aren’t nearly expensive enough! So what used to cost several hundred dollars will now cost $100 more. And it’s all because of that demon of rising oil prices. So now in addition to [...]

Hendersonville residents have had enough of the high gas prices!! They’ve been sending emails and making phone calls to the local state representatives such as Debra Maggart, anxious to know what they can do to avoid higher gas prices.

$3.86 The Mapco in Gallatin, on Greensboro Drive, is the king of the heap today. While everyone else in the county has jumped up to $3.88 or higher, this station stays pat at $3.86. And if you’re anywhere near that station, and need some gas, I’d zip over and top off the tank. The odds of any [...]

$3.86 Folks, we may be in the midst of a slow-down in the rise in gas prices. We’ve had $3.86 gas in Sumner County for just about a week now, and that’s nothing to sneeze at. Even as recently as a month or two ago, the prices were rising three times a week or more. Enjoy [...]
