    I will say they are at least good on that accord. Idk, we might be 20-30% tarped. In the last 4 weeks ive tarped two. The one in Reno will be tarped as well.

    But when i was running gypsum board out of vegas, i got very used to throwing them tarps when the rainy season started.

    There is a chemical company around my area that pulls a flat loaded with cylinders of chlorine with a small dry van pup behind that.
    What a turd that would be in the wind... :/

    Almost there.

    Good chili has beans in it. If it didn't have beans to temper the awesomeness then kittens would die and pigs would fly.

    Yeah, no spaghetti or macaroni. That's just goulash.

    Dinner eh?

    Grab a big pot:

    Half cabbage chopped
    carrots chopped
    Celery Chopped
    Onions chopped
    1 clove garlic chopped
    Tomatoes your taste. We use a can of diced version
    another can, one large, one small
    If you got oregano and basil a few shakes of that
    Veggie broth by carton
    Green pepper chopped
    Lipton onion soup or your taste
    touch of pepper black

    Layer everything with the package of onion soup in the middle.
    Fill pot with broth and cook 4 hours with a crock on high give or take a hour. Once carrots quit being crunchy then it should be close to done. Your nose has to wait until you smell soup. Its not soup until it does become soup after a certain point when crunchies go away.

    Find a meat source to taste as a side item. Fix that while waiting.

    Big pot, little pot medium pot does not matter as long you fill it. It should feed your family for a day. Or you several days.

    One important thing. A small container of anti gas pills. That cabbage is a problem for some. Take about half a day after two pills one time.

    A little bit of slow cooking in the south now that winter is here.

    I have thought about this long and hard and have come to the conclusion that this would just make you a under payed reefer driver that has to tarp loads.
