    There is a lot of very large fires in Alberta and BC. I was out for a ride 2 days ago. I felt like I smoked 2 packs of cigs when I got home.

    After equipment company sell and sorta retired, worked part time for a caster/wheel company. Got my jollies by screwing with the R & L or AAA/Cooper coming in to pick up the occasional pallet. We were sorta in a strip stretch of buildings and you approached the back street for pick up/delivery. Walk in door and a small roll up. Ground level, no dock.
    They would come in the alley, bout 4-5 PM, needing to get it and gone. I'd step out the door when they stopped and casually inquire: How you gonna get this stuff in there with no lift gate? I wasn't told one needed, as he glances at his paper work. (This really culminates ( the word?) his day.
    Well, hell, guess we will have to use the forklift then, and reach over and roll up the big door. He would look askance (I think that is what they call that expression) at me as I went in an cranked up. We had a small 2500 lb lift, fooled a lot of people. Old folks need lite moments, Mack...

    My tarps are all but retired.. They sure do come in handy when wrenching under the truck or greasing. Lay out the tarp, drive over it . no more laying in the dirt.

    Take the tater. Wash the tater. Oil the tater with olive oil. Liberally sprinkle with salt. Place gently in a used WalMart plastic bag.
    (Or anybody's plastic bag) Tie the handles of the bag together,.Place in the microwave for 7 or 8 minutes. (Stout hi watt micro, not a dinky toaster size)
    Enjoy...

    WHOOPS .. bag will be VERY hot. rake out with a fork, stab and roll tater out on plate...
