Cities in Dust
I tore through a lot of the Star Wars comics available on Prime Reading over the weekend. Good stuff all around, from Darth Vader to Doctor Aphra to the various stories in the main Star Wars line.
Gas is about a buck-fifty a gallon at the Speedways around here. It's not going to last, but it's pretty nice to see. A buddy out in western Kentucky saw several stations selling for under a dollar a gallon.
Forever ago, I had this enormous Chevrolet Caprice with a 305 V8. It was surprisingly easy on gas when it could get up to speed, better than the little Mercury SUV I'm driving now. It also had a big, big fuel tank - something like 25 gallons, IIRC. For a few months one summer, the combination of giant tank plus highway fuel use made it worth my time to drive to one specific gas station in Frankfort to fill up instead of hitting up stations that I knew of in Lexington.
