Yeah, it’s that nutty expensive station on Pico and Barrington in West L.A.

While I’ve got your attention:
--Los Angeles Gas Prices reports that the average price of regular in the city is $4.53 a gallon, up from $4.33 a week ago. The website reports a high of $4.99 in L.A.
--Interesting tidbit: the ‘spread’ between L.A. gas prices and the national average has been widening significantly. A month ago it was 17 cents a gallon ($3.88 in L.A. vs. $3.71 nationally); today it’s 47 cents ($4.53 vs. $4.06). An LA Land coffee mug* goes to the first commenter not named Johnny Dollar who explains that one.
