Pretty funny... but here's a real one, on a more somber note:

I ordered a hard-top for my Jeep Wrangler over two months ago... I got a call yesterday that the supplier for Chrysler with whom they had been doing business since 1978 went out of business, so now they're scrambling to find another supplier for the hard-tops and estimate it will be at least another two months.

The big auto makers are all going out of business, and now the suppliers are following suit... sounds like Atlas is starting to shrug.
