A little perspective

On the way to work yesterday morning, I passed a gas station advertising $2.59 for a gallon of regular. On the way home that night, it was $2.99.

That said, watching the nightly news from New Orleans is like watching September 11th unfold in slow motion. If your biggest problem is high gas prices, count your blessings.

I spent a lot of energy worrying about my lot in life after hurricane Isabelle, and for that I am now officially ashamed. My wife and I, and most of our region came through Isabelle with our lives, homes, and jobs intact. It is now painfully clear how lucky we were.
