    You’re talking The Passes in eastern Oregon. Right? I came through there yesterday. Very foggy through Meacham. Some snow. Spent night in Boise. Rained all night. Was glad I didn’t put off going through.
    Had clerk in Boise at Pilot laughing. He asked me if I’m having a good day. I told him great since I got out of the communist region.

    Local and regional haulers have been bottom bidding those loads for decades. Most of the consistent loads are on a contract that will not be affected by any demand spike.

    Also too many spot market trucks desperate for a "pays for the fuel" load to LA to raise the rates any significant amount. (The Yuba city crews would be on that list). I do not think demand can spike enough to use enough of the available trucks in the area so that the rate will rise.

    I used to know an old boy, God rest his Soul, that made Alfalfa shine... Was completely legitimate, well sorta... He had permit to make alcohol as fuel for his alcohol burning 1/4 miler. But he was know to "sample" his fuel, and even share at times. And let me tell you, that stuff was POTENT!!! I think the urine ones body would create from that shine was higher proof than most store bought liquor!... Lol

    I begin to get sick of the virus coverage.

    I thought we got over that doomer coverage in 2007.

    Would it be ironic. Im not sick but am sick of the media bombardment. I will follow tornados all over arkansas because thats worth something but I'll be ###### if Im sitting next to st peter taking names. Be a awful lot of names.

    When all of this is over I intend to see the horses on the barrier island somewhere east. Make a sand castle for their amusement and pass the time.

    English was NOT a favorite subject at the Deaf School. The reason being there were two languages involved. Old English Galludet and LeClerc model from the late 1700s that was imported by them to America which includes ALL punctuation and various other decorations I call them. Time consuming.

    That got broken by the new ASL American Sign Language based on the Chinese Syntax and optimized for extremely rapid flow of information without the time consuming punctuation.

    And they still insist on teaching American Written English.

    UGH.
