The Sorrow Supply-Chain Crisis

How'd you like to borrow some sorrow
  I've plenty to give away
You say you'll come back on the morrow
  ~ But there's so much backed-up here today

Valsa George Date: 12/1/2021 5:56:00 PM Don't worry... I am on my way with a truck to load it full and rid you of your stock.... ! Oh, You are amazing, Gershon ! Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 12/1/2021 6:05:00 PM Great, Valsa. I hope you don't mind, but the first cargo we need to move -- boxes of fertilizer. ~ Not-so-amazing-now, eh?

Rico Leffanta Date: 12/1/2021 10:57:00 AM Enjoyed, but like all those cargo ships waiting to reach the dock, a great many sorrows may sink before they land! Aloha! Login to Reply

L Milton Hankins Date: 12/1/2021 9:19:00 AM A lot of truth packed into this little quatrain, gw. I've been waiting six weeks for my new hearing aids. They called this morning and said they wouldn't be here until January 7th. So.....guess I'm a victim of the supply chain crisis. Login to Reply L Milton Hankins Date: 12/1/2021 12:00:00 PM I understand the Biden administration has slapped a $100 per day per unit fine on cargo on the ships in the harbors, and this has considerably speeded up unloading. So, the supply chain "crisis" may melt away pretty quickly. Hit 'em in the purse, where it hurts! Rico Leffanta Date: 12/1/2021 10:55:00 AM At least you will be able to enjoy Christmas sans drums!

Evelyn Judy Buehler Date: 11/30/2021 9:47:00 PM Very nicely written, Gershon. But, I've a bad feeling about this... :0 Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 12/1/2021 5:46:00 PM Don't worry, Evelyn. Like most 'crises' these days, it serves the press and social media moguls purposes more than anyone else's. Yes, it's real. But is it overblown in the media? -- For sure. ~ gw
