what's in the truck 2

I'll give you a hint: One of my neighbors gave me a going away present of a hunk of uncooked corn beef.
I kind of disagree with the notion of my being a packrat. More like a crow who flies around stashing sparkly things here and there.
Trying to make up my mind if the window before the spring storm of the century hits the midwest is long enough for me to make it to Mo today.
Looking at the weather report again.

I'd venture to guess DaDa has packed for you before! Sounds right on except he forgot the Zabar's Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

Why people still use to read news papers when in this technological world the whole thing is presented on net?
