It sure looks like Hurricane Ike is going to make a direct impact on the South Texas coast and right into my pocketbook at the same time. Gasoline prices have went out of sight since it started to look like Huirricane Ike was going to hit near Houston Texas. Rumors started swirling around here yesterday that the price of gasoline was going to over $5.00 a gallon due to the hurricane. It has went up about .28 cents a gallon overnight but not the dramatic increase everyone was talking about yesterday. Let us hope that we do not see shortages and rapid increases in the price of gasoline, I am not sure our fragile economy could stand the increase.
