    As for the events surrounding the UK fire it is sad we have the NAHB here in the US lobbying on a regular basis to relax rules and regulations that save lives. Sprinklers do save lives and light weight construction doesn't give you much time to get out.  

    What about the Oakland fire this spring. The reports mentioned unpermitted construction. That fire freaked my wife out because our son goes to Berkeley.

    The carts do bother me also. Maybe I should start bringing my quad and attach a copy of my handicapped placard to it!

    I think a bicycle is going to start coming with me to some events.

    I have also considered a Yamaha TW200, with handicapped plates.

    I actually prefer to walk around the events I attend.

  2. Well I guess plants go on the train to from Miami to New York! What takes me 2 days to deliver takes 3 weeks by train! Poor little plants are all brown when they arrive [emoji851][emoji257][emoji253]

    Actually the railroads have brought back the old fruit express trains to haul time sensitive cargo and most out here are piggyback.

    It is funny to see a train that is a mix of UPS and Fed Ex trailers
  3. More than likely.  Was ignored in a GMC dealer in Patchoque by the one salesman there. After him ignoring my wife and I for 15 minutes I went to his desk, and pulled out$ 20,000 in hundreds and told him this was the down payment for that pick up in the show room and left. 


    Funny

    Last summer my wife and I went to one Honda dealership to look at new CRV's and they ignored us so we drove about 15 minutes to the dealer by her work and looked them, the irony is that the second dealer traded the first dealer to get the color my wife wanted.

    I have gone to lawyers offices for emergency meetings in my dirty work clothes. At first the receptionist looks down at me until she finds out that I am the expert witness, then she changes her mind and is real nice

  4. I see it around here. The traffic engineers and tree huggers are nuts.

    In industrial areas they remove the painted median and plant trees thus forcing vehicles to stop in traffic lanes and other issues.

    The other thing that is happening is they take a four lane road and add a planted median and bike lanes and you end up with a two lane road thus forcing the traffic onto the freeways.

  5. I have seen the package delivery trucks being cut up at three different yards.

    They stack the tires and return them to ups

    The bodies were destroyed but the drivetrain was just lined up in a neat row?

    I have seen a few of what I think we're there freight tractors that were repainted and sold.

  6. The truth, that the environmentalists do not want you to know, is that there is more known oil reserves under North America than there is in the Middle East.

    If we want to be free of foreign oil we should expand our oil industry.

    The truth is that Middle East crude is low grade and easier to crack into fuel and that is all it is good for.

    North American crude is harder to crack and makes great lubricants.

    If we want to put the oil prices in the toilet all we have to do is start a real drilling program and bring the fields to production.
