Oh yes, I currently have inflatable pool toys stacked on it now and it seems to be holding them fine. Going to put the tractor up on it tomorrow and remove the “Quick Oil Change” feature that really only changes about 1/3 of the oil.

Greg, there are reports the Russian national guard has the road encircling Moscow blocked after several Russian politicians called for Putin to leave the country.

Hmmm. Interesting.
I saw a report over the weekend that some officials in St. Petersburg were arrested for suggesting Putin step down. Nothing since.

Hope that's true about trouble in Moscow. Good luck to them, hope Putin gets gutted.

Meanwhile, Ukraine says they're having some difficulty finding enough facilities to hold all the Russian prisoners. I saw a couple videos of large amounts of Russian artillery rounds they've allegedly captured in the last couple days. Hard to tell if that's true, both sides use that kind of ammo, but judging from the number of burned armored vehicles with Zs on them in the area, probably is. This is a strange war in a way, both sides could do a lot more damage to the other if they really wanted to, even without nukes.

Putin is getting into a back against the wall situation, hope he's gone before we find out how far he will push this.

18 of them signed a petition against Putin. If this rumored current situation in Moscow doesn't pan out, I wouldn't bet a nickle on their survival.

It would be a surprise if they're still alive.
