I started writing this post back before I sold my house in Flagstaff and moved to Phoenix. That’d make this thing a least three weeks ride. It is still worth posting? Probably. People are still taking about gas prices. And people are still chanting the mantra of “Drill Here. [...]

I can’t say I’ll rush right out and see this one. But, then again, I’m not all that sure I won’t see it either.
