Dusty Moments, America's Finest Blog, is dedicated to photography and the American way of life. With each old snap shot or Kodachrome slide, a bit of the psyche of the person behind the camera is revealed, while simultaneously creating mysteries as to the true nature of the subject's story. The words within this blog are my own. Many of the photographs are mine too, but included also are the dusty moments from my parents and grandparents, as well as, junk store finds.

So Absurd That He Must Work For Them
So, I read an AP article about rising gas prices today, it contained the usual reasons for price increases, the improving economy, refinery maintenance and a million barrel drop in gasoline supplies, which sounds like a big number until you find out that we use 87 million barrels a day. The article then got real good, it quotes an oil and gas analyst that noted gas was 32 cents a gallon when the first Super Bowl was played and ticket to the game was about $10, now gas is $3.42 nationally and a ticket to the big game is about $2200, the according to this analyst fuel really hasn't increased in value that much. I know I feel it each time I stop on my way to work to pick up a ticket for the big game. Really, I am astounded by comparison.
