OT: Oil companies

[vw_85roccoZ400 at hotmail.com (Brian Spinney)]

Personally, I boycott Citgo.

It's funny you say that, I personally don't use Citgo either.  And I feel 
alot of people have been doing the same.  There was two Citgo in my town and 
since May one has gone under.  The other one is slowly going down but it 
location is the factor of why it is still opened.

Anyway the list is slow and you guys leave me nothing else to do at work 
other than working and that's not to fun ;)..
