Nice work.

I would have never stepped down I would have reassured all that what was wrote was what i meant and that they are a bunch of sick demented sodomizing fruits. He’s entitled to his beliefs and f the NFL any way, they are anti American. Wish we still had laws from years ago for sodomy. How do you go from death sentence to embracing it?

Yet we have had a patio and deck replaced with Trex, just got storm doors and doors and a window replaced, had stoops replaced, had a plumber replace some ductless AC heads (Jap but made in PRC), and in the spring I received a plastic ship model and stuff to make fishing lures with, all originally from PRC. I quit BJs and get bulk stuff with free shipping from Walmart or Amazon within a few days. I admit I have yet to find my favored Dr Pepper Diet Cherry or Lawry's Herb and White Wine marinade in a year, but I will survive. However the same dozen ships have seemingly been anchored off Jones Island and Long Beach for weeks.

Really depends on what you are looking for and your priorities. Is it American made? Or stuck on the ocean from another country? Folks are now hoarding again as done during the pandemic. Be glad you can still get what you need in life!

For what? You need a refresher?
