    Is that how you've been shipping your new side business of tree rat meat ? To avoid those pesky USDA regulations you label it as fish ?
    Brilliant idea !
    I hope that shipment wasn't a total write-off. What area has been your best selling market so far ? Can you tell me what rates are like ? Send me a list of brokers ? I'm trying to break into the business. Thanks !
    I was thinking that area's around the arid Southwest would be where the biggest dearth of supply is ? Since they don't have much of a native indigent supply.
    I'm sure that it's a more well known beef alternative in the North, Canada and West Virginia come to mind, but I would think that those market's have been saturated with Suppliers as thick as Tree Rats on the ground.
    The Southwest may not have as much of a demand yet but I'm thinking that it'll take off and fly ( at least that's what Rocky, my business partner, says ).

    I'd like to find me an old reo don't know what model they call them but they look like a cab and a half with the back of cab kinda rolls down the back with the huge chrome grill and kinda rat rod it. I spotted one in Indiana the other day sittin back in the weeds on the back road they had me routed on. I think an old NTC or b- model engine under the hood with the butterfly panels off of it would look bad ### !

    So your sayin' Rocky is sellin' out his cousins for the almighty dollar???

    I was thinking y'all would be fun to sit around a campfire with.....now I'd be more then a little concerned you'd start harvesting my organs if I passed out.

    Well all but the liver....not much market for pickled liver.....

    Well I didn't want to mention it but ..... If Rocky offers you a shave and a haircut for two bits, you might want to find a dire emergency you need to get to right then.
    I still regret that two bits I paid him.
    With these results you'd think that he would have at least given me a refund.

    Rocky might not be too trustworthy but he's a real cutthroat business associate.

    My Oldman had one of those as a single axle dump back when he started trucking. Think he also had one with a lime spreader bed. That's how he got into trucking. Spread lime on bout every farm in in Muskingum county and surrounding counties. He use to spread lime on the weekends and haul his lime in during the week. Before he went big time truckin he had three spreaders and three dumps. Him and mom would haul lime in to stockpile ( dad in one dump truck , mom driving the other with me in diapers sittin in the jump seat ). Fun times !!
