2. Beau is a handsome fellow as well
This is off topic, but I'm wondering about something. How is trucking for you now days? I've got a local deal hauling car parts for Honda. It looks to be about the most secure deal going around here for local drivers. We haven't experienced any slow downs or cut backs yet despite the ailing economy. But that's not the case with most of the trucking companies around here. There is a GM assembly plant in Moraine, Ohio which is just a few miles away from me. It's shutting down completely in November. They make SUVs there. Go figure. They say about 6000 people will lose their jobs when you count all of the associated warehouses, parts suppliers, and truckers in the area. I'm thinking that there will be several hundred truckers looking for work after the shut down and several companies will go out of business because their only customer is GM.
