Gas prices

Oh boy I think I am happy my fishing is now powered by a lithium battery and not gas. Let me know if anyone sees one of those $1.95 per gallon gas prices I have heard about😡.

Well just think about all of the campaign promises made about lowering cost of living expenses, the 5k doge check, the 2k tariff check, etc etc. the high gas prices are supposed to lower those costs… cant you see it??

Good thing we don’t have a centrally controlled economy like the CCP, they’d ban exports and control prices.

At least the stock market is over 50,000, oh wait just checked my phone, it's falling at the same rate the gas prices are going up, I need my golf course to open so I can get four hours of no news. Or water temperature to rise enough where I think I can get some largemouth bass feeding.

How close is your course to opening?
While my meadows had almost no frost because we had some snow cover all winter, I’m assuming the course will wait as long as possible.

But I did suggest to the owner last year that he offer the superintendent a percentage of the profits prior to average opening date, we’ll see if that worked.

Being the first to open is as close to free money as you can get in the golf business and bumps up your memberships.
When it was a club it was always first to open by weeks.

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
