The economic blues are hitting more and more people. I just learned that a friend of mine who works at a Bridgestone tire plant is on the bubble for the next wave of layoffs.

My friend and fellow Suzuki Burgman rider is known as the Smyrna Cowboy and he publishes a regular vlog on riding and life. And by the way, riding motorcycles is one of those things I love to do in warmer weather to find joy in life.

Here is his video discussing the upcoming layoffs. You can hear the worry and concern in his voice.
