I'm thinking maybe this is a good thing.
People will stop buying and throwing stuff into land fills for a while.

Really is looking like a repeat…

I bought my first Tundra in August 2007, just bought a 2021 this last August.

Housing and stocks both doing very well.

Soon after I bought my first gas loving Tundra-boom, the gas prices went sky high.

Then soon after people couldn’t make their house payments, tough few years it was.

I didn’t see the last one coming, this time I’ve been preparing for almost a year-real estate business.

I did read propane was getting ready to skyrocket, I’m not getting a propane fridge and staying away from anywhere requiring much use of a furnace so It shouldn’t be much of a problem.

I hope all those containers that fell off into the ocean had tea in them, then there would be no loss.

I was just kidding Adrian. I’m sorry if I offended anyone. I have an occasional cup of tea myself and two cups of coffee on Tuesday morning with some friends. Rita likes tea and we’ve got a stock of it in the pandemic pantry. My mom drank quite a bit of green tea and lived to 93, maybe I ought to change my reckless ways?. Hope all the tea drinkers can accept my apology.

Exclamation Ships in the harbor

Wife and I took a walk today on the Seal Beach pier which is right next Long Beach harbor. The container ships were lined up all over the place. I think the last number I heard was something like 38. With more arriving daily they don't have enough truck drivers to move the containers to the rail yards 15 miles away from the harbor. Even though their loading trains in the harbor they don't have enough workers to load the containers on the trains. The container yards are filled with full containers with no more room because they can't move them. it doesn't matter if they go to 24 hours a day seven days a week, you only have so many trucks, you only have so many workers, and you only have so much property. Please remember 40% of everything imported into the US comes through the Long Beach LA Harbor area.

Of course I knew you were kidding and likely did not offend anyone. That was why I used that particular expression and finished with a
