I was getting ready to go shopping today when I noticed that my rear tire was very low. I stopped at the nearest gas station and pulled up to the air pump...They wanted 75 cents for air!!! I don't mind paying a quarter, even though I think it should be free, but 75 cents! I remember my grandfather telling me that the next thing to happen in the world is they would charge you for air...He was just kidding and trying to make a point, but back then air was free! Imagine what he'd think about paying 75 cents! I'm always amazed by the things that go on around us and we don't even know about it. What was the last thing that amazed you?

Around here, NJ, it's a dollar to get air put in a tire. :( The last thing that amazed me when I went to return some books Wednesday. I bought them through the college for 450, and I'm supposed to get half back but don't exspect it. I got back $74 dollars. :(
