I wonder how traveling the country with a trailer got people to buy a gas station franchise

  1. Well! you've just answered a riddle for me.
    In the '80's there was a well respected professional skateboarder called Jeff Phillips. He's dead now - suicide in 1993 aged 30. Anyway he had a signature trick called the Phillips 66. Never knew what the 66 referred to until now.
    Thanks.

    1. Suicide at 30. Damn. How desperate and lonely must the young feel that there is nothing hopeful about the future, to the point of suicide?
      Or, more likely CTE.
      Dave Mirra, renowned cycle stunt X Games rider, suicided at 40, and the number of concussions and accumulated brain damage was fierce http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2016/05/newsflash-dave-mirra-suicide-in.html
