    I failed to mention that isaw a very unfortunate event today. 4 brand new western stars broke down on the interstate today. It was one of those setup where 1 truck is carrying 3 behind it.. They were those new 49x western star models. Guy had the hood up and triangles out, while on the phone.. My guess is they build those in washington somewhere . so he atleast made it about 500-600 miles before catastrophic failure in a brand new rig..

    961D26B9-AF20-4983-B9FD-B98878C9F345.png For the heck of it I googled my Trucks paint code. Found it on eBay. It’s $35 for a spray can. Haven’t priced it a Dealer yet. Looks like they have a pretty good selection. Place is in Atlanta, yet ships paint from Belleville Mi. Always looking to cut out the middleman, I tried to find the place in Belleville. No Luck. But if anyone needs some touch up. Here the Company, available on eBay.

    I think I figured out this shortage thing, the real story, none will talk about because it’d cause a panic.
    One, they’ll have to pass another law to expand the budget, or you really haven’t seen nothing yet, shutdown, no SSI checks, etc, no income for those.
    2.) shortage of People.
    They keep saying none wanna work, which most don’t like to work. I enjoy my job, though, it’s the headaches that come with it that is bad, you gotta learn to our weigh good and bad.
    I believe, with all the deaths the countries, yes everywhere, have impacted the workforce, it’s like in WW2, the general who was criticized for saying, “Destroying a factory they can’t produce goods for 2-3 weeks while they rebuild it, but killing a workman takes 18 years to replace.”

    Think it’s bad now, wait til no one has money, with all the goods on the rise, fuel here Tuesday was 2.849, last night it was 3.059, was offered a load of chicken meal going to Richmond IN for 188/ton, but I am committed to helping where I said I would, I don’t jump ship and abandon a good thing for a one time deal.

    3.)The keep saying vaccinations!!
    You thought of why?
    Distraction, takes your mind of the real problems at hand.
    You’re watching this hand and miss what the other is doing, and people are eating it up.
    Remind you of something.
