    Getting Outf Dallas

    People like NightCreature and DaveKC give me so much confidence and I'd like to thank them both. I choose to listen to the ones that succeed in this business and ignore the ones who cry.

    Panther Discreminating The O/o !!!!

    I love how people who in their old country were crapped on disrespected and lied to and sometimes killed...they come over here and all of a sudden they want the president to get involved when someone tells them to screw off over the phone because they're so delusional and idiotic and pretty much...

    American oil

    Favorite stretch of road

    Yeah that Mt. Shasta is absolutely beautiful. You can probibly see the peak over 25 miles out once you hit that long long steep grade. Some river follows that I-5 stretch and its so clear its blue in the middle where it's deepest and you can see the bottom on the edges. I got some lunch at that...

    Favorite stretch of road

    Yeah I hear about the I-70 stretch west of Denver but I've never been down that way. I have yet to see the Seattle WA area and that I-68 in MD and WV is beautiful but bloody if u got a heavy load. It has to be the worst concentration of steep grades in a 100 mile stretch of road, in the whole...

    And some of you want truckers with guns?

    I have a baseball bat in the cab but that's only to itimidate someone who wants to attack me, I'd never raise it on another human being...I'm just not that kind of person. But the problem is there are truckers who would.

    Steering away from Expediting

    What I used to do was get some chips and Red bull and munch on stuff, but I was completely miserable most of the time....also nodding off 4-5 times which could have ended badly.
