Sure ya could von...

SIMPLE economics!

Come here to my location.  Purchase a thouroughbred that either won the Arkansas Derby, The Racing Festival of the South, or placed in the top 5 in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness, or the Belmont.  Rent stable and pasture space out in Berks County somewhere and put him out for stud.

At about $1.5M to $5M per "date", (depending on the horse's rating at retirement) gas could go to $20 bucks a gallon and you wouldn't care.

It was very interesting to carry out the flight trials at Rechlin with the Spitfire and the Hurricane. Both types are very simple to fly compared to our aircraft, and childishly easy to take-off and land. (Werner Mölders)

My sister has a place in Berks county.

She has horses, too.

I'd rather get a permit to make my own Ethanol and convert my vehicles...

Hope that isn't too political a statement...

I'm still trying to figure out why diesel is higher than gasoline here and other places, but cheaper than gasoline (like it should be) in others


Messa:  I'm sure I can have you a horse with just a phone call, just have to pay for S&H :D

+1
Diesel here is 20 cents more a gallon than regular gasoline, which is just wrong. Then Babalonian posts a pic, and diesel is 30 cents cheaper than regular, and he lives in the same friggen state I do. WTF is up with that.

Who wants to bet the oil companies post a record profit for this quarter. :bhead

And for those that don't know, there isn't anything cheap about owning a horse.

Worse?  That's a picture of heaven to me.


Getting close to the $4 around my neck of L.A., drove down to Palos Verdes and saw that it was already over $4 there.
