    BKMD - You're too funny.

    One thing I know about not being able to travel, the delivery companies - Prime, FedEx, UPS, etc. are doing a booming business. We've had three deliveries already today and it's barely past noon. I've noticed that whenever we go on travel the stock prices for each of those delivery companies takes a nosedive. Each company has several trucks named after my wife - Nancy I, Nancy II, ... It's always upsetting when these delivery vehicles show up and the drivers greet my wife by name.

    I know, Happy Wife, Happy Life.

    I've been out the last few hours and missed a few rounds. Filling up my place with barrels of oil. They're paying me to take them! :)
