    I am aware of the history with Cuba. I wasn’t trying to suggest that was new information, but there is a lot of talk going around about fuel shortages, food shortages, parts shortages, etc., and of course inflation in our future. A lot of people today seem to be embracing socialism and this is just meant to be an example of how it doesn’t work. At least that’s the way I took it. But it was mainly the part about the long fuel line at the one operating gas station that I guess made me think it might be relevant to this thread.

    At any rate, I’m not here to argue so if you don’t like it that’s fine.

    I try to never fuel when the sun is up. Been like that for years now.

    Now would be a good time to organize a shutdown. I'll be home Friday, I think that would be a good time to start.

    You guys are getting worked up over nothing.

    You'll see. President Jo will go on TV and say," We are getting moar fuel out to people cause when I was a kid in Alaska we had fuel. And it's like, you know, you could be The Man on The Moon, but you know, kids under 12 don't need a virus cause the virus knows when you are 13 or older. And we are going eat less pork which means less methane we were using to make fuel, but we are growing corn like we did when I was a kid in Pennsylvania when we worked in the coal mines."

    When he was a kid ice road trucking in Pennsylvania, you know, it's like Alaska, except for the moose and The Eskimos, but we love The Eskimos because they were the ones that built this nation and gave us oil, which is why we will have moar fuel because The Man on The Moon is an Eskimo.

    I read these posts in Joe's voice and that made it extra funny.

    Fuel at TA/Petro is normally significantly cheaper with the Landstar discount. TA/Petro’s discount has decreased a lot. P/FJ is now the same price everywhere I look, but P/FJ gives more points to Landstar drivers.
