TODAY'S LITERARY THOUGHT

'And these words shall then become
Like Oppression's thundered doom
Ringing through each heart and brain,
Heard again - again - again -

'Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number -
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
Ye are many - they are few.'

-Percy Bysshe Shelley

Nearly $50 last night filling up the tank at the local Citgo... a new record... price/gal. $3.48.9... In other news, Juan Cole's blog has a new entry on gas prices... pretty informative tho' inconclusive...
