Larry Potterfield is having a rough time getting things out. He is doing well but I remember a time when: Over ten years ago I was up in the night and decided to go ahead and send that order to Midway on the computer so I did. I went to work the next morning happy to know my order was early in line. I came home about 12 hours later and there on the porch was a small brown box? What in the world? I looked at it and it was from Midway. On opening I found it was the order I made early, at 0-dark thirty! I am only a couple of hours away but never thought UPS could get it here even the next day. I remember that time and then these days of rough times for all and realize my order from this morning will likely be Wednesday or even the Friday they projected for delivery. I won't be upset either way as delivery times have sunk to new all time highs. Five business days to St Joseph from Columbia MO? I can ride my bike there and back in five days. And I'm the motor! Be Well, Rustyzipper.

Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery. Winston Churchill.
