except when he passes one of his hotels with his name on it.
In my town, there's a gas station every half mile or so, and you're constantly reminded of the current price for gas.

The only thing about gas that's likely to go down is its availability while Hormuz remains closed.

The last minute or so was so whack a doo that it defies description.
The crazy man was talking on how he controls the price of gasoline
something about “we are going to bring it down to …. 85 … and then he looked

...because I was low on gas and that's where the opportunity arose to get some. I paid $5.199 per gallon, the most I've ever spent. It has gone up since, not down.

Yes, they swallowed
