That looks killer.

MANY NAPKINS ARE REQUIRED!!

The fried pistolette style bread is what brings it all together. 
 

Woogies sandwich shop in Vidor is not far behind Darrell’s. They sell a sandwich called the Beast with just about the same ingredients and fried bread. Very good. Along with their crawfish pistolettes!

Woogies is very good and the Beast is awesome. Had that one many times.

I saw $2.99 at a Baytown truck stop last Thursday. Most prices hovered around $3.45.

$3.59 Unleaded - $5.49 Diesel - Sucks

Speedy Stop in Vidor yesterday. 
 

Rest the country is not as fortunate.

This nonsense needs to end.

We’re going to win so much, you may even get tired of winning. And you’ll say, 'Please, please. It’s too much winning. We can’t take it anymore. Mr. President, it’s too much.' And I’ll say, 'No it isn’t. We have to keep winning. We have to win more!'

I'm still using $3.25 gas thanks to a buddy of mine that has a 750 gallon tank at his place of business.

My grandfather lived about 25 miles from a gas station out in the country, and he had a gravity fed big tank he would buy gas in bulk. I'm not sure how many gallons, but large enough a gas truck would come out and fill it.

The price of diesel is $6.53 today. There is a worldwide effort to sway the midterm elections to hobble President Trump.
Oil has gone down to $91 a barrel which doesn't translate into $6.53 a gallon. We are being gouged intentionally!

While I'm not sure if that is true - we can look at history.......

Historically when oil is $91 a barrel, Diesel has ranged from $3.70 to $4.10 / gallon

When Bush has the high gas prices, gas in this area was almost $4.00 per gal. and crude oil price was $140. So there’s that. My work was such that we kept an eye on crude oil prices.

Yes. But, the dollar has lost 47% of it's value since 2001 due to inflation. It now takes $1.89 to equal $1.00 adjusted for inflation. Johnson in 2016 was the last POTUS candidate that even mentioned trying to balance the budget. I voted for him. Only 3.3% of the rest of voters in America cared enough about the debt then to vote for someone that wanted to address the problem. It was the last time I voted.

I thought about that but didn’t do the math. If it makes any difference, it was closer to ‘07-‘08. I still thought there was quite a disparity.
