I figured you were lurking so I just threw in a throwback joke over there.

That was a good one, Teddy. Covid 2000 FTW.
You guys were busy last night. I didn't get home from my foray into Bronco RN's home-20 territory until about 8:00. Had to go to a supplier and pick up some materials so we could partially fill an order. Ate dinner and faded. Good reading though. I don't know why I was so beat last night. I think this material shortage crisis is wearing on me. We've got tons of orders we can't fill because we can't get the stuff in to make it. The only positive thing, from our perspective anyway, is they can't go get it from our competitors because they are out of materials too. We have at least 20 truck loads on order through mid-July. Our main supplier has 17 extrusion lines running 24-7 and they can't catch up. When the rest of the country started to open up from the lockdown all the manufacturers were caught flat-footed. The bean counters that run the companies wouldn't let them build stock, apparently. Oh well, enough of my problems. Carry on General Nonsense.

Scags, get rid of the rubber tire and rim and get yourself one of those stone wheels. Wheel helps get bud light to party. Wheel suck.

^10-4 on the old tire. Maybe you could keep it as a spare. Just kidding. I had to replace the tube in the front tire of my previous Toro. Looks easy enough but it wasn't. I think the problem may have been my work bench's location in reference to the beer fridge.

Now that, I can believe

How much land does he have? And can he grow whatever he wants without anyone realizing it? Hey Skags, I got a business proposition for you... Yeah, it's hemp, I swear ...

Interestingly enough, that bear shows up on camera at 4:20 in the AM. Coincidence? Maybe, but probably not....
