Different countries now grow organic coffee. The leading organic coffee producers are Peru, Ethiopia and Mexico. Other countries that produce organic coffee include Rwanda, Haiti and Vietnam.

Cost for a gallon of regular gas at Monument Beach this past weekend. When I worked for a Northern Virginia dot-com in 2000, we'd go on twice-daily Starbucks runs. Out there in Suburbia, this required us to get into a car and drive to a mall a couple of miles down the road. This worked fine when we were all paid handsomely, single, childless, and gas was less than $2 per gallon. It is also the type of practice that people may want to rethink as we stand on the brink of the $4 Gas Gallon Era.

Price of a gallon of diesel in Seattle = $4.99. At least I get 45 MPG, so no complaints.
With all the boaters around here, diesel prices are monitored pretty closely by most of the locals, but not me.
I've noticed the price of a gallon of regular is creeping dangerously close to the price of a low-end pack of cigarettes (the convenience store in our neighborhood displays the price of each on the marquee peg-board sign).
And yet, I've heard no political candidates propose a Cigarette Tax Holiday.
