    I've done it, delivered a load of beer into globe.

    Can't say it was good. It was also not fast. A chunk of it is reservation land and open range IIRC dang near hit some cows that were standing in the middle of the road.... just around the corner from a rise. I think the pucker is still in the seat from that one. I moved the bottom cushion to the passengers side.

    The Big 3 are shutting down plants, due to a semiconductor shortage. Shouldn’t be for long, but will affect a lot of other Businesses.

    You have to get it hot to flow and keep it hot. Tho a heavier oil would be better than bacon grease. I realize your being rhetorical.
    There is a person over in Sullivan that converted a pickup to run on axle grease. It ran on an equivelant gallon of grease some 150 miles. He tried to sell it on the for sale page I run. Alas he was asking 25 grand for a truck that was only worth 3 grand. I doubt Obi sold it.

    Well, it appears we has a MASSIVE water leak.
    It’s at the meter, underground, and I hope it’s on their end.
    Called water company, guy showed, looked around, said he’d take care of it, flagged it, and it’ll be 2-3 days but he’ll get a excavator here and dig it up, replace lines, said they’ve had a ton since the last great freeze.

    Left water on, said he’d call before he arrived, so we can leave water heater on, for now.

    This song seems to fit the occasion.

    We're having taco salad ( with extra salsa ) for breakfast. We're doing this for two reasons-
    1) Because we are Americans and have the right to choose dinner foods for breakfast, and breakfast foods for dinner.
    2) Because Opus doesn't have any.

    Well nukes at the poles would release co2 and therefore an atmosphere. That's the thought anyway. The guess is 7% of our atmospheric pressure if they did this to mars.
