Gas prices on a roll — we feel the pain in Burbank

Gasoline prices are going up fast. About a week ago, I paid $3.79 per gallon for regular. Today, at the same station I shelled out $3.97 for each gallon of regular I pumped into the P.T. Cruiser.

Wonderful weather — but a change is in the air

Another warm and sunny winter day on tap for Burbank today. The sky is not that gorgeous clear blue it was yesterday — as some patchy clouds and light winds have moved into the Media City and the Southland.

$4 a gallon gas in Burbank

We all saw it coming — but the reality is still hard to handle.

I paid $3.79 a gallon.  At that time, Supreme stood at $3.99 a gallon. Today, Supreme is selling […]
