    Yes, but you can take them off when you are getting fuel. But only if less than half the fuel pumps are occupied. And only if the fuel pumps are sanitized after each use.

    I really don’t understand why they won’t give people supplemented oxygen.
    It helps with a lot of issues but it’s rarely prescribed, tho someone resourceful could simply load up on a torch tank

    Funny you would mention the torch tank thing. My dad (r.i.p.) had 5 bypasses when he was 49. Lived to be 73. Had numerous stints in his 60's and early 70's . When he was about to need a new stint and he would get to feeling rough he would slip off up to the shop and put the smallest brazing tip on torch and sit in his lawn chair and have a few tokes- then good to go, lol.

    Yep, I am puttin' up an 8' high chain link fence around my shop so the mosquitoes in all the old tires I am saving for the apocalypse won't get out and bother the neighbors when they are out sitting on that old sofa in the yard behind the pickup on concrete blocks.

    Number four is an outright lie, less than 50% of doctors are vaccinated, go look up the problem in the health care industry and vaccines … the ama has a report on their website about this issue,

    A small one hour strike before cops shut it down and a 7000 truck strike over union contract a few days earlier is all I can find .
     
    Truckermania Thanks this.

    Make sure none of your guns decide on their own to shoot anyone.
