Im not sure. 
but its $4 a gallon in Santa Ana, CA. If I recall.

That's what I thought.  That $8.00 figure, if anything, was probably a rogue gas station owner trying to gouge people.

National average is now $3.49.  Prices usually go DOWN in the Fall.   

One year ago today it was $2.11

$3.50 here now.  Seemingly nowhere to go but up.   

Is it true that some places in CA are pushing $8.00 a gallon?

According to public records, Piazza v. Weather Group Television, LLC. was ordered to be dismissed on June 7th, 2021. I guess that would be the end of the lawsuit.

thanks.

Back in November, tides in Venice pushed water levels to "50 year highs."  Two months later, things are MUCH different.

Venice canals almost dry, two months after severe floods

Does anybody remember the story about those high school kids who allegedly acted aggressively towards a guy in DC.  When video evidence proved that the media fabricated much of what they were saying, the family of the one kid sued.  CNN recently settled out of court.

Nope. They only care about their members. In fact, a former union president (at least I think he was a president) said "I'll start putting the needs of students ahead of the teachers when they start paying dues." Wow.

At least he was honest. 

I got sick and tired of hearing that "we only care about the children" lie during October's strike in Chicago.

One of their demands was to have a nurse in every school (which I'm totally on board with).  However, part of me thinks they just threw in that clause to gain support from the public.
