I saw in the paper today where some counties here in Kentucky are shortening the school week to 4 days, giving kids the day off on Friday. Teachers would work half a day. It's an effort to save money spent on diesel for the buses, so we'll see how that plays out...it's kinda interesting, because apparently some school districts have done it out west for a long time and it's worked really well.
Gas here jumped from $2.49 to $2.69 today.
