Commercial Items Identified on my Commute

Image
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.

April continues to be busy. It is easy to say already that I have either worked a full day or traveled (often both) every single day of April 2016. And the month is not over. It has gotten so busy that I had to plan a meeting at a restaurant in the international terminal of the Atlanta airport. Places, times and missions/goals. It all has to converge somewhere. I spoke at a conference in San Diego. Some quotes I thought about this week. "The best camera is the one you have with you"--- Chase Jarvis "Do the work you can't not do."--- Scott Dinsmore (Read this one very carefully.) "Your heart is where you tears are."--- Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist) An art pic of a familiar view from the "plane train" in ATL airport. Pics from Tijuana Mexico. I have a brand new passport. Just breaking it in.
