    I am on my way to deliver to the ketchup plant. Again.

    Due to a colossal screw up in the rarefied air WAY above my pay grade, the production of a large National Ketchup Brand will come to a screeching halt due to lack of corn syrup, in 4 hrs.

    It will take me 3 hrs to get there.

    I'm stopping for a coffee, anyway.....

    Tune in tomorrow for the exciting conclusion of "KETCHUP!"........

    I hate hauling corn syrup, but I don't get to haul ketchup-grade stuff.

    Last time I called her a She, I thought you said She was a He. I sure hope the OM isn’t having a transgender identification issue. Lol.

    If it’s the ketchup plant I’m thinking of, take your time, they always run 6+ hrs behind schedule anyways. I hear there’s a shortage of small packets. Might get a load myself. Then I’ll be the Ketchup Hero. Lol.

    Three tomatoes are walking down the street- a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and smooshes him... and says, Catch up.

    Man, I feel like crap. I think they poisoned me with that Vaccine. I also suspect it’s made both of us more ornery than normal. Could be the start of the real Zombi Apocalypse. Everyone’s going to start attacking each other. Lol.

    The daughter of an old friend of mine was in that van, she has been in a medically induced coma for over a week. Bunch of broken/shattered bones below the waist, doctors doubt she will ever walk again... If she survives at all. She also has brain swelling and a brain bleed, which she has had at least one surgery for. Doctors suspect that if she survives she will spend the rest of her life in a "rehabilitation home"... Is 18 or 19 years old.

    Also in the van was another young woman with her 2 small children, and her boyfriend was driving. The driver and a 3 year old child died. The other child is in critical condition. The young mother was the only occupant of the van to escape relatively unharmed.

    The driver of the van, for reasons unknown to myself, ran a stop sign. Thankfully, the bullhauler was empty... Otherwise I'm sure the tragedy would have been much worse.
