Funny how some things have dropped in price drastically while others have skyrocketed. I would never pay $19 for a CD! How many years have we been out of school now? *shudder*

Interesting. It makes me feel old because I bought gas much cheaper when I was in high school. Very cool.
Love ya!

And we all have to remember that the first gulf war was going on during my soph year so gas was higher because of it.

I remember back in 1998 gas was something like 68 cents for a while. (I only remember this vividly because I was going to massage therapy school and I was so poor) Can you imagine how sweet that would be now?
