Travel day. In gilbert now heading home in a few hours
I managed to try my luck targeting trout yesterday in colorado
Got nothing but a ton of ant bites. I was wearing shorts. Tourist sighting..lol.. I didnt use any Deet because it was a last minute decision to fish.
Also, driving back to az from Colorado, massive storms on a two lane highway is not fun at all.

Was reading today Taco Bell can’t get some of the basic supplies they need to run their stores :shakes head: Chicken is up a buck a pound, bacon is in short supply……. and the list goes on
Not only shortage of material, but labor as well. The taco bell in durango was desperate for workers. They were running a pretty aggressive hiring campaign, to the point where they put fliers that they are hiring in the bags at the drive through

I’ve seen advertisements at Taco Bell “ work today, get paid tomorrow “ & for a 401k but the unemployment rate remains high.

Safe travels my friend :tup:

Happy Tool Day :hello:

Got a set of 1/4 short and deep impact sockets along with 1/4 short and deep 12 pt standard sockets on the way. Also got a Tekton 15 pc set of 11-32 mm 1/2 short impact sockets for $30 (I just needed the 30 and 32 mm sockets).

JARblue 07-21-2021 09:33 AM
Forgot I also ordered a 37 pc set of 1/2 short and deep 12 pt standard sockets. They are Gearwrench - got the whole set for under $100 :tup:

Yeah, but there is no protection for power generation. Grid goes down. :shakes head: And all of the power generation companies know about and ain't doing a thing about it. PJM Interconnect used to send me e-mails everyday about the sun's condition when I was at the plant.

That's his electric shock therapy.

Did you run into a shortage of gasoline there? When I was in Wyoming last month. They were saying there is a shortage of truck drivers to haul gasoline on the front range of Colorado. And a lot of stations were out of gas. :icon14:

Take an old soldering gun. Hold it next to a ECU and squeeze the trigger. You just fried the ECU. Don't ask how I know. :shakes head:

Pretty good book called "One Minute After", novel about EMP detonation. Pretty interesting, you might like it if you haven't already read it.

When we went to Madwi's and out to Wyoming. Never paid under $3.80 for 93 or 91 oct. gas. The most was $4.39. :eek:

I can remember when I paid $0.49 for 98 oct. at the pump. :shakes head:

Oh yeah, grateful for the job security, just a little fried mentally.

I'm sure you read it before I did, I only picked it up maybe 3 years ago? Anyone, really enjoyed it.

All this talk about 'EMP' has me thinking I need to double check my 'get home bag'. It's a good 10 miles or so to get from work to home, and that's via the road. I'm thinking it's probably closer to 15 by the time I avoid the roadways...:icon14:

Is that similar to a Bug Out Kit?

Similar. The 'bug-out bag' usually has enough stuff for 3-5 days, the 'get home bag' is what you would need to get from work to home, to get the rest of your stuff. If you live a considerable distance from work, then your 'get home bag' might have the exact same stuff as your 'bug-out bag'. An hour drive to work might mean you need enough stuff for a 3-5 day trip. YMMV :tiphat:

For a "Get Home Bag". I use a Camelback Mule pack. You're seen what I have in it. It's good for a few days.

My "Bug Out Bag" has enough for 2 weeks.
