9. Gas costs $1.00 per gallon more than anywhere else in the U.S.
ya, George! I'm happy to say that right now, this one is false, (although the rest are true-ish)! I got back on Monday, Oct. 6th after a 10-day long, dual S2000 vacation in Colorado (mostly). My sweetheart (Spokes Man) 
, and I, drove both of our S2000s on a 10-day vacation. The least expensive gas was in Cali! What a surprise, and a first time ever, for me, on my cross country trips!On Sept 26, 2008 I paid $3.769 at the Irvine, Cali Costco for 91 octane.
Matched it on Oct. 4, 2008 in Ridgeway, Colorado. The worst was $4.319 at Primm, Nevada on Oct. 6, 2008.
Next worse price was at St. George, Utah, on Oct 6, 2008, for $3.999 a gallon.
I got gas when I got home on Oct 6, 2008 at a Mobile station for $3.779/gallon so I really think Cali is cheaper right now. What a refreshing observation.

You're in jail for 25 to life because someone broke into your house and you shot them in self defense. (wait how did you get a gun in the first place?, oh just add another 5 years onto the jail sentence)
