Last year there was talk about HDI outsourcing work which upset the unions there. Now the unions are again concerned with the China deal.

http://www.jsonline.com/bym/news/jun04/235937.asp


And in a possibly related bit of news, there is apparently a fairly major sinkhole that formed overnight in the street near Juneau Avenue and 35th street. The local traffic news is reporting this as a simple sinkhole, but those of the tinfoil hat crowd believe it is a sign of the bottom falling out of the Harley market. Either that or someone found the key to the tunnel doorway to China.

Stay tuned for updates. I may wander down to Juneau and see just how big a sinkhole can be later today.

Haven't found a pic yet, was all over the radio news on the way into work. One guy here at work said it's 40 feet deep already. Will probably be up on the jsonline.com web site today, at least I think it will be.

They're trying to prepare a place to store all the Jap bikes that people trade in when they introduce the 2005 Buells and there's a mad rush to buy them, resulting in an inordinate amount of useless foreign hardware being thrown out in the street. Woohoo!

Maybe building the HD's and Buells in China will put the price down to where everyone can afford one. And of course the average American(s) will jump all over that chance regardless of who it hurts. Soon we'll be just a nation of opinion. Sure hope we'll be able to market opinion because I have a butt-load of it.
