Our friend Chad recommended this piece by John Markman: Sell Stocks While the Selling’s Good [1]. Oops! Too late. You had your chance: Global Markets Tumble [2] (A hat tip to Eric for that link.) Meanwhile, we read at WND: Recession? Maybe worse. Economy stumbles more–Expert says it could take years to recover from financial crisis now going global [3]

RBS mentioned a great do-it-it yourself project page on building cargo compartments into the back of an SUV. [4] (This was designed for a Toyota Land Cruiser, but it is adaptable to many other vehicles.) It would be particularly useful for any readers that like to keep their rigs packed with G.O.O.D. [5] essentials at all times. Speaking of BOV [6]s, Chad mentioned Host Industries, a RV [7] manufacturer in Bend, Oregon, that makes expandable pickup truck campers [8]. Sort of like campers on steroids. Aside from the limitations of a higher center of gravity and lower overhead clearance, campers have a lot of advantages to towing a camping trailer.

Our #1 Son sent us this link: Scientists warn of wheat disease [10]. Soon after, SF in Hawaii sent this piece on the same topic with a different perspective: Billions at risk from wheat super-blight [11]
