I guess I shouldn't have posted that for Otis....he says now everyone will be gone today doing the research. In fact, he says he is going to work on it too....

I don't need to do any research, I started my studies around age 5 and continued until I was all worn out many decades later.
For a young guy like you Bert, there is so much to learn.....don't dread it, just relax and enjoy your studies!

Regards!

Enough about tacos, let's talk about the looming bacon shortage that's all over the news.
Seems it shouldn't be as bad as first thought.
Bacon shortage? Prices may rise, but don't panic about pork just yet | syracuse.com

All you who are whining about cold temperatures and accumulations of fluffy white stuff have nothing to complain about.

I see an avalanche coming! If I was in that bus it would be headed south and never stop until it hit Argentina!

This part bothered me.....
"Today's pig farmers are setting historic records by producing more pigs than ever," Deaton said. "Yet our reserves are still depleting."


Perhaps we have been to strongly supporting bacon around here. I hear even young Bert has become a "bacon hound"? Maybe we should slow down or risk a bacon shortage in the near future.We don't want this headline....

Won't do you any good Jim.

The Continental US ranges from 24° North to 49° North.

Argentina runs from 21° South to 53° South. Add to that that some of the highest and most rugged mountains on the planet run along the Western border Argentina shares with Chile. I remember as a boy watching the downhill ski speed record runs on ABC Wide World Of Sports, broadcast from that region.

Now you might get to outrun the wintry weather during the summer season, but you'd be well advised to move that bus back to the Northern Hemisphere around late March, early April.

One more thing.

Have you seen the road that connects North America with South America? Better get an all terrain bus.

Then there is this pesky detail.

Sigh ... I wish that France was like the States where there is a Taco truck on very corner ... sigh.

NB - Please do not construe this to be a politically oriented statement ... I really miss a good Taco. French don't do Tacos ... heavy sigh.
