Holy Good Gas Prices, Batman!

Never mind that "good gas prices" used to mean $.97 a gallon and that I distinctly remember when prices soared over $1, and that it used to take $50 to fill up the boat, which I found astronomical.
Today, I got gas, a full, full tank of gas, for under $40. At times it's been almost $60, and I don't have a huge tank, probably 16 gallons, or 16.2 if I let it go really empty (like my receipt says today).

Hurrah for small victories! ...and for the societal brainwashing that leads me to think that spending less than $40 on a tank of gas is a real victory.
