Riiiiight. They've got diesel, but no gas. None.
Uh-oh.
I headed out of the Walmart parking lot and banged a quick right into the BP. I was pretty sure they had gas because the lines were 3 and 4 cars deep.
I almost shit myself when I saw the price, though. They're charging $2.79 a gallon and if they're not sold out by now, they soon will be.
Same thing at the Shell station. Lines to get gas and $2.79 a gallon.
I'm not hurting. Both the F-150 and the Ranger are full or very close to it, my mower's full, and I've got 35 or 40 gallons in the shed, but still.....
I learned my lesson right after we first moved here when the same fucking pipeline that's causing this shit blew up.
WiscoDave emailed me about it that evening and told me to get my ass into town to top off, but I'd had a few drinks by that time so I put it off until the next morning.
When I got into town about 8 the next morning, there wasn't a drop of gas to be had in all of Macon County and I had less than a quarter tank in the truck and exactly one can for my mower, and it was only half full. It was like that for a week. By the time it was all said and done, I had siphoned every drop of gas out of my mower and generator.
Within a couple weeks of gas coming back, I had 8 brand spanking new gas cans waiting to be filled. Motherfuckers ain't going to catch me with my pants down again.
