Turns out that this old lady's dog went potty on the lawn of a man well known for his patronage to the local flea market, which incidentally sells a lot of glassware and candle making kits. The wax from the candles are known to have minute chemicals in them known for causing sterility in meerkats, and hemorrhoids have also been reported by people who own pet mice (although there is no proof if it's the chemicals in the candle wax, or just a life-happening). As you might have heard recently, mice are abundant in flooded areas of China, making travel hazardous, as they believe mice are their reincarnated ancestors. Since traffic jams are now increased, this is putting a strain on the oil market, thus making the price of gas higher.
Or it could have been the old 'let's throw a dart at the board and see what happens...oh shucks, it landed on 'let's raise gas AGAIN'' trick.
