    I’ll take that Miller over Milwaukee’s Best (more like Milwaukee’s Mess) I think that crap is made from cleaning out the vats.

    Rebar is a decent haul as long as construction keeps everything moving. We don't depend on it and the rate isn't great but it's better than some of the stuff available around here.
    What happens to your haul when winter shows up and rains everybody out? We found that when the cement companies laid off, the rebar haul came to a halt. Maybe your area will be different.

    Should be more than that. No State income taxes. Should be around $1200. Roughly 80% of gross.

    Greasy bars. The bars are slick and slide out under a hard stop. Driver gets porcupined by the bars.

    I can handle Milwaukee's Best (it's on par with Natty Light) but if High Life is all that's there I'll pass.

    And according to my cousin who works at a brewery, Busch is made by mixing tank bottoms. He literally said you never know what you might get in a can of Busch - it might be a mix of Budweiser, Bud Light, Stella Artois, Landshark, and Natty Light.
