Holy crap, I just made the best chicken chili ever (or southwestern chicken soup, whatever you wanna call it). It really came out right. Got lucky & hit a home run. 5 jalapenos not 6 is just right. And I didn't over cook the veggies this time. They have some body. The flavor? Oh man, it's spot on. I ain't lyin. Made a huge pot of it, too. It'll last me a week. I'll fill 5 rubbermaid bowls & freeze them to take with in the morn. Rest I will store in LARGE rubbermaid container in the fridge. Life is good. I'll put 6 bottles of water in the cooler too. 3 frozen, 3 refrigerated. I don't need to start putting hotel ice in the cooler til after my second bed. Well, better crash, got a 6 am wake-up call.

 

Fontana Reddaway went on strike! Wow!

Not only did they go on strike they went on a wildcat strike. I haven't seen one of those in a long time. For those that don't know it takes HUGE testicles to do something like that.

 

Now Orange and the Downey yard need to do that!

 

What is a wildcat strike?

 

I believe it's going on strike without Union authorization.

 

Wildcat strike is when you don't have the authorization of the International. They were very popular back in the 50's and 60's. the workers were able to accomplish a lot back then but were considered to be very militant.
