    Well TQL didn't cancel this time. 2 picks 1 drop 900 on 262. The old man's doing that one. Doing my 2nd load of empty beer cans this week to cranbury NJ. Not the best rate but not terrible either. 675 on 215 miles. Still a decent round, loading on way back newark to syracuse for 700, 24hr receiving on both ends open apt times. That's good at least

    Cans only weigh like 4600 sailboat fuel

    So to put some prospective on all of this, The head of the PA health dept was on tv this afternoon, hospitals are at 60% capacity, ICU beds are at 40% capacity. Where's the emergency?

    NYC. They are currently claiming* that people are dying so fast, that they’re going to start burying them in mass graves in all the city parks. Makes you wonder who’s dumb ####ing idea that was.

    The question is, maybe hospitals are not in full capacity because of the lockdown and awareness? Did you think of it that way?

    That's preposterous. If it was that bad, why not just cremate him?

    Sounds like a money sham.

    Holy ####, my entire coravirus rate thread was deleted! Reason “We don’t need that here”. What does that even mean?

    Maybe so people are reminded forever of how horrible it was? Some sort of publicity stunt or something? No idea.
