YEah...feed prices here have gone way up also..to the point you could get a bull calf for about 5 bucks..We have a good deal worked out for our hay..so thats no issue..But I think you will see alot of folks with boarded horses giving them up. be prepared to pay more for food this year for sure..

 How true this is I'm not sure??

[url=mhtml:{8E5FCC2B-910C-495A-8B4E-665CC7145C1C}mid://00000126/!x-usc:mailto:CARALUPA@Subject]Subject[/url]: CITGO IS CHANGING   


                      Verified with [url=mhtml:{8E5FCC2B-910C-495A-8B4E-665CC7145C1C}mid://00000126/!x-usc:http://www.snopes/][size=http://www.SNOPES][/url]:

IN ORLANDO LAST WEEK, AT A 
CITGO STATION REGULAR WAS PRICED AT $2.82   PER GALLON.  THERE WERE NO CUSTOMERS.  HOWEVER, ACROSS THE STREET WHERE I FUELED IT WAS SELLING FOR $2.85 PER GALLON AND ALL PUMPS THERE HAD CARS WAITING TO FUEL.


 


Have you noticed how the Citgo signs have disappeared in the past 7-8 months?  Very clever move by Chavez.  But guess what CITGO IS CHANGING ITS NAME TO? This is serious Americans...make sure you read.


 


NEWS FLASH:


 


Chavez is NOW getting a Russian Weapons Factory built by Putin. The RUSSIANS are building an AK-47 Kalashnikov Assault Rifle factory in Venezuela to give armament support to Communist Rebel groups throughout the Americas  


 


Chavez NOW has IRANIANS operating his oil refineries in Venezuela for him. It is likely only a matter of time, if not already, before Chavez has Iranian built LONG RANGE missiles, with a variety of warhead types aimed at.... Guess Who?


 


CITGO is NOW in the process of Changing its name to PETRO EXPRESS due to the loss of gasoline sales in the USA due to the recent publicity of ownership by Chavez of Venezuela .


 


Every dollar you spend with CITGO or PETRO EXPRESS gasoline will be used  against you, your basic human rights, and your freedoms.  He will start wars here in the Americas that will probably be the death of millions. 


 


 THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT because Chavez is starting to feel the loss of revenue from his holdings.  HE OWNS CITGO. This is a very important move which everyone should be aware of.


 


ANNOUNCED JUST RECENTLY, CITGO, BEING AWARE THAT SALES ARE DOWN DUE TO  U.S. CUSTOMERS NOT WANTING TO BUY FROM 'CITGO-CHAVEZ,' HAS STARTED TO CHANGE THE NAME OF SOME OF THEIR STORES TO: 'PETRO EXPRESS.'


 


DO NOT BUY FROM 'PETRO EXPRESS'!


'PETRO EXPRESS' IS ALSO 100%  OWNED BY 'CHAVEZ.'


 


KEEP THIS MEMO GOING SO THAT EVERYONE KNOWS WHAT IS HAPPENING. 


 


              BOYCOTT  'CITGO' AND 'PETRO EXPRESS'.


 


MAKE SURE THIS IS PASSED ON TO EVERYONE IN YOUR E-MAIL LIST IN THE UNITED STATES AND OUTSIDE OF  AMERICA!
