I usually go to US Gas in Horsham (across the street from the former base) when I visit the area which is quite often. Pay w/cash to receive the discounted price... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSky Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 I don't think gas will exceed $5.50 in this area. They know what they can charge and have to balance supply and demand there would be too much slack in demand if the price went that high. Also shale producers start pumping when it hits $100 a barrel and at some point Opec will ramp up production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowwors2 Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 This is all a mere drop in the bucket compared to what’s happening to our 401ks…particularly if you’re retired‼️ Frikin’ daily traders are mostly to blame‼️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, Wawa is out of their minds. The ones on Bethlehem Pike and Dekalb Pike which were $4.19 yesterday are $4.45 today. Is this a new thing to jump a quarter/.25 cents a day?

While frustrating and EVEN IF that’s true, that would cost your average driver MAYBE $1,000 annually, IF it held at that level for a year (which it won’t)… Of MUCH bigger concern are our 401ks with the major indices down over 10% this year!! If your planning on retiring soon, or worse yet already retired, that drop is devastating and equates, already, to a loss of $10,000 for every $100,000 you have invested‼️‼️ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is funny now watching people squirm regarding drilling for fossil fuels on our home turf. Once the pinch at the pump started, funny to see the backpedaling and suddenly more and more people open to it. I never understood this....get oil from overseas and pad their wallets while we save the climate here, even tho other countries we get oil from are affecting said climate via fossil fuel refining. Quite hypocritical? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hurricane Agnes Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Well guys - it's back. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/mlb-lockout-league-union-reach-agreement-to-continue-international-draft-negotiation-per-report/ And from MLB.com (both sources are continually updating with details) - https://www.mlb.com/news/mlb-mlbpa-agree-to-cba Quote MLB and MLBPA agree to new CBA pending ratification 3:28 PM EST Mark Feinsand @feinsand Major League Baseball and the MLB Players Association reached an agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement on Thursday, paving the way for the 2022 regular season to begin on April 7. The CBA must still be ratified by both sides before it becomes official. Once that happens, Spring Training camps are expected to open on Sunday, bringing the three-month lockout to a close. The deal came to fruition a day after MLB postponed Opening Day until April 14 in the absence of a new agreement and announced that each team’s first four series were removed from the schedule. However, as part of this agreement, a full 162-game schedule will be played, and the four series that were previously removed from the calendar will be rescheduled. The makeup games that came as a result of the delay will be rescheduled as nine-inning doubleheaders. The new five-year CBA is expected to include increased minimum salaries, a new pre-arbitration bonus pool to reward the top young players in the game, a raise in competitive balance tax thresholds, the introduction of a universal designated hitter, the widest-ranging Draft lottery in pro sports, a system to prevent alleged service-time manipulation, limits on the number of times a player can be optioned in a season and a 12-team postseason. There will also be the evaluation of an international Draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChasingFlakes Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Kind of off-topic but here's a run I filmed at Jay Peak last year. This was the last time I was healthy enough to ride a snowboard. Just got an epidural injection in my back on Thursday, hoping for some progress. I really miss this, it was the main reason I got into weather in the first place. I have a bunch more POV footage from this trip, it was sick. Some of it is on my channel, feel free to check it out. Hope everyone is enjoying this snowy Saturday. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
