    I agree.

    There are lots of things that can go up there. No one ever looks up.

    Whatever they can think of we already invented it in the state school dorms.

    One time in the time of door games we had one who was over the hill over his girl about something or other related to the upcoming dance. He was so wrapped up in it that we smuggled her into the place found a beef to heft her up there on top of the door system while a second pretended to protect her and door by staying in place a while.

    Mr Troubles stormed in, sat at his desk and proceeded to expound on the little differences between ties to wear to the dance and how much of a dunce the girl was going to be when he got it settled.

    She was not happy. Took him about 8 minutes to finally notice her up there.

    From what I understand Arkansas has one Wuhan Flu suspected in isolation.

    A Italian cruise ship with 6000 is under a yellow flag for a while. Probably three weeks from today. No one on no one off.

    China has medical people posting videos to twitter indicating the Wuhan Flu has evovled into a second generation and is infecting 14 or more people for every one who is sick prior 10 or more days before symptoms translated videos indicate possibly 90000 sick. Wuhan hospitals no longer function with dead piling up in the halls etc and the sick just sitting down waiting to die on sites.

    Many international air carriers are isolating China. Russia closed her borders vs China today.

    The Powers that be who decide Global Medical responses may be forced to issue a warning before this really gets going globally. Hopkins and Yale medical researchers think 65 million dead and maybe two to three times that sick within 18 months.

    I rule it a preventable. She should have been more situational aware. Suspend her license until she completes a situational awareness program.

    On the serious side: I am not sure I want her walking around me with a sizzling hot plate or even one smothered in hot gravy. And if she is that clueless of her surroundings not sure she should be on the road.

    Thats what the problem was, I bet, load was to hot to touch, so here I sit, 12 miles from delivery in Joliet.. called reciever/agent they will see me at 0800..
    I sleep tonight without some loud obnoxious alarm going off at 0145.
    Good thing I schedule reloads for the next day regardless.
