    Well done. I will say I'm not surprised though. That would require you doing something that was thought to be outside of your abilities and this was certainly not. Kinda cool taking the ride with ya though.

    I think it would be awful Hi-tech if Blair could program his drone to pilot itself autonomously , and provide fore and aft views. Seriously cool.

    By the time Blair delivers his brain will be fried. Too many people on the radio talking to him, stopping for 4 wheelers tha pull over opposite of a sign or mail box and won’t move because of the police. The only thing that would make it better is if load was real tall and had to have a bucket truck as part of the parade. it is exhausting work, he will be whipped.

    Yeah but now he'll be able to afford real Mac-n-cheese instead of ramen noodles. He'll be living the high life. Probably won't even talk to us ramen noodle guys anymore.
