    Rules, what rules? Rules are made to be broken. Nano chip shortage will end, after everyone gets the jab. The unwilling will be under surveillance and eventually be chipped, at a unsuspecting moment. They won’t even know it, administered by a micro mosquito drone, or some other method. Till all have received the chip. Then the Aliens will invade, and round up any last resistance and enslave the earth. JFK will return, along with Elvis, and a whole array of famous Cultive personalities and reveal themselves as the new Alien Leaders. It’s hard to believe but completely true..... Read it on the Internet.

    I’m in Kentucky. No sign of Frankspeak. Suns up, finally safe to go to sleep. Trucks idling. Might as well use up as much fossil fuels as possible while it’s still available. What’s left in the ground will just go to waste, never being put to use.

    6C87B578-4431-4B1A-BB27-3C6874065C99.png We have these where I live. Saw some last week. Domino’s (pizza) Farms petting zoo. Visible from US23/MI14 junction in Ann Arbor. Also at a Bar near Port Huron they’ve had one for years. Fenced in outside. A lonely existence. As long as I know. At least 45 yrs. Can’t be the same one. The Buffalo inn. Famous for their Bison Burgers. Last week at the meat market, I overheard the butcher tell a Lady he’d have some ground Bison available later. My thoughts were. I wonder what he’s going to ground up to make this alleged Bison? Sirloin and Turkey? Maybe. Or tenderloin and chicken breast? I’ve had Bison Burgers a couple times. IMO, needs some ground pork mixed in for real flavor. Too dry. Elk is lean, yet tastes good. Bison tastes like a Crummy Burger. At minimum needs to be cooked in bacon grease. Everything’s good with a bit of bacon grease. My load of Tractors turned out to be Utility vehicles. Top secret Prototypes. Wish I could share some pictures. They’re pretty cool. 4x4 vehicles. 4 cyl Diesel engines. Engines 70 yr old technology. 65 hp, ready to be tuned, and tricked out for mudding. 3100# each. Got 4 of them. They’re basically vehicles without any safety equipment. Not Road Legal. In 1969 they would have been. $16000 Farm vehicle (Toy) for hunting and hauling the trash to the road. I’d like to have one. Any redneck would be proud to own one. Look for major auto manufacturers to start making them. Toyota and others are supposedly planning to enter the market soon. Coolest thing I’ve hauled since Swamp Buggies. They were fun, I got to drive them on and off myself.

    Having achieved main engine start during pretrip when checking oil level it was slightly overfilled and black as coal after 210 miles since oil change. Yeah Ryder PM schedule maybe 50000 drain intervals is just a bit too long. Now having achieved 150 degree water temperature the assault on I75 north begins.

    I'm waiting for my liquid sugar sample to clear QA at the Pill Factory, so that they can unload me.

    Yesterday, I found out about something I've wondered about for a long time.

    This has nothing to do with anything. Perfect for WIIS. Bear with me a moment, please.

    I went home after yesterday's load assignment.

    Missus Skillet was out running errands. My plan was go to bed. Just use the can, wash my face and brush up.

    Now, in our house, we use wooden matches in the bathroom, because neither of us likes the smell of spray air fresheners.

    Anyway, I had an itchy ear, so I cleaned it with a cotton swab, and pulled out a good hunk of earwax.

    Now, I've always wondered, "If you light earwax on a cotton swab on fire, will it melt and burn like a candle?"

    So I got out a match and tried to light the earwax, but it wouldn't ignite. It just kinda "fried" and turned into a hard, somewhat crystalline substance.

    I think to myself, "Okay, another question answered", then made sure the swab wasn't smoldering, and threw it in the trash can. Then, I went to bed.

    When I woke up, Missus Skillet pulls the swab outta the trash can, and asks me, "What in the hell went on here?".

    So I told her the story I just told you.....

    "Wait.....wait---You tried to 'set your earwax on fire'?!?"

    I told her, "Yes".

    She looked at me for a minute, then said, "Because you were unsupervised."

    To which I replied, "Well,........yeah."

    She just shook her head.

    There is like a gallon or a half gallon that doesn't come out. 50k is too long. I do 12 to 18k on mine, but I own mine. Most of the time it's over filled from a TA oil change.
