Today, August 25, 2026, Diesel at the northern Costco is up 10¢ to $6.19 . Gas at both northern and valley Costcos is unchanged at $4.89 . The price of diesel is the price that has a direct effect on the price of almost everything, since it fuels both trucks and trains that transport everything.

Today is April 11, 2026 I got regular gas at Costco last night, the price was $4.73. Diesel was $6.26. A lot of the time I just check gasbuddydotcom, rather than driving eight miles to check myself, but they're reporting that the price is ten cents more, reported by owner.

March 20. Unleaded is $4.79 . It only went up .03 today. All figures since inauguration day are for the Costco I shop at. Their address is 12020 N Newport Hwy, Spokane, WA . There is another Costco, on Sprague Avenue, and their price for gas is usually a few cents cheaper.

So, today is March 4, 2026. It's been a while since I updated this. Gas went down below $3.29, which was nice; then it went up again. On 2/28, we attacked Iran. Gas has been going up about $.10/day since then. I got gas at this Costco yesterday; it was $3.78. Today it's $3.89.

I have a relatively new phone. I read something a minute ago that brought up the question, ''Can I call 911 using voice commands?" It turns out you can, but it's harder to hang up. The usual buttons don't come up. I had to apologize to the dispatcher and explain what I'd done. Pixel 9A.

First he paved over the Rose Garden. Then, he said he was tearing down the front of the East Wing. Then, the whole East Wing. What makes you think he'll stop there? Nothing would please Putin more than to see the entire White House in rubble.

Years ago, I had a bumper sticker that said, "Don't blame me, I voted for McGovern" . I'd get a new one for Kamala, but I'm feeling a little nervous about Proud Boys, Three Percenters, and groypers.

I learned today that there are a number of excellent bands that only have three members. Like Cream, The Police, or Rush. But you know who isn't? Three Dog Night. That band had seven players. Who would have guessed?

I'm sure I screwed up some algorithms on my Amazon account, but I found out that Amazon sells pot pipes and apparently crack pipes. I don't know enough about meth pipes, but they apparently don't sell them. If opium pipes look like long tobacco pipes, they seem to sell them.

I wish Donald Trump had talked with Mike Tyson before he started this war. Mike famously said, "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the mouth." The Iranians have had a long time to make their own plans.

I knew the grocery store i shop at was overcharging for their bananas, because they hadn't changed the price in thirty years. That and the fact that other stores charged 20¢ less for a lb. Two weeks ago, they raised the price 10¢.

I tripped on a broken section of sidewalk the other day. It's amazing how far down the ground gets as you get older. Final score: 9 staples on the eyebrow and a black eye.

I resisted the temptation to name her Diogie. Instead, she's Pebble(s). She doesn't answer to any names, yet, though.

Last night this puppy was dropped off at my house for "a couple days." She's six weeks old and weighs two and a half lbs. For comparison, the foot is size 11 American. She doesn't have a name yet.
