Commercial Items Identified on my Commute

I see a lot of interesting commercialitems on truck on I-75. When you make the commute many times you start to see the same items over and over again. Sometimes it is huge equipment tires, sometimes heavy equipment of different types. I see these huge blocks of aluminum going North. I think about what the mill must look like and where it is going. And how much aluminum foil a block like this will make. Using the Tesla Full Self-Driving (supervised) allows me to look for these things on the highway. The FSD also helps me through the crazy stop and goes. Easily over 70MPH and then sudden traffic at dead stops, frequently. I see accidents every trip. It is amazing there aren't more. A side note- aluminum foil has a shiny side and a dull side. The reason why is that the foil is folded as it goes through massive rollers. The shiny side is the side that faces the steel roller. The dull side faces itself - aluminum.

Today is day number 15,646.

My new HP12c Calculator is really something. I really like using it. Fewer key strokes for almost anything. Class is going well. It is challanging and I am learning alot about something we should all be good at, Financial Management.

I changed my mind at the last minute about buying a new truck. I am going to wait at least another year. I have other fish to fry and eat.

Over the weekend I served as an evaluator for 4-H kids and their "public presentations". It was sorta fun. They let me talk about Toastmasters for 5 minutes before the awards were handed out.
