"Everyone likes to hype $4 gasoline because it's sexy," says Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst for the Oil Price Information Service, an energy consulting firm. "The reality is that we're nearing the highs of the year, and within 30 days there will be more gasoline on the market. You might see $4 in tony places such as Beacon Hill or Beverly Hills, where they wear the price as a badge of honor." --BusinessWeek Online
I'm too sexy for my car. Too sexy for my car. Too sexy by far.

Hmmm. I think $1 a gallon is sexy. I'd never make it in Beacon Hill or Beverly Hills.
It does my heart good to know that the oil industry was able to overcome those lowered crude prices in order in increase their profits. God bless them.
