    My truck was abandoned

    After reading this post, I think I would be better off just selling my truck, instead of putting a team in it.

    Saying Good Bye to Trucking

    I would like to thank everyone for your words of encouragement and condolences. It really does help. I am thankful that Jim and I always told each other how we felt about one another and "I love you" was always said. I know he loved me with all his heart. Just be sure to tell your partners...

    Saying Good Bye to Trucking

    It is with a heavy heart that I am saying good bye to driving our straight truck. Jim passed away on October 27th from a massive heart attack. I am not sure what I am going to do but I promised Jim I would never go on the road without him (he was very protective), plus it would not be the same...

    What is killing all my walmart fridges?

    Henboy1, By any chance, do you shut your fridge down when you are home? We would go through a fridge a year and could not figure out what the problem was. While we were at Camper World, Jim was talking with the owner and telling him how he could not understand why the fridge would die within...

    Just when you think you've seen it all

    I guess we should be happy he didn't have his briefs hanging out there.:eek:

    What would you do??

    Jenny, I don't blame you for being scared - when we hear of all kinds of weird things that happen out here. You didn't say but I am going to assume your doors were locked. And yes, you did the right thing by calling the police. It is always better to be safe than sorry. If this should ever...

    Hazmat Question?

    Yesteryear, Don't sweat the HazMat test. I just took mine last month so I could renew my license and passed it with flying colors. I had to answer 23 questions out of 30 (I am from PA). The only thing I did to study, I went on line and punched in free hazmat practice tests and practiced on as...

    Michael Jackson and Farrah died today

    I know that each and every one of us has our own opinions on everything but why is it that such a simple thread can cause such chaos? I was brought up that you respect the dead, no matter how you feel or don't feel about them, since everyone on this earth has someone who loved or cared for...

    Aluminum Oil Pan Rethread

    Is it the plug itself that is stripped or the head of the plug? We had a mechanic strip the head of the plug, we had to drop the pan and tap it out from the inside. It was certainly cheaper than buying a new oil pan - I think the cost was about $800. Jim said, if he is not mistaken, he was also...

    This is kinda weird

    I think this is the same bird my sister just told me about last week. She was telling me about being at the J, in Barstow, to get some pizza. She said they just got back into the truck when this bird almost flew into her window and than sat on the hood of her truck, watching them eat. She said...

    Goodbye "Don't ask. Don't tell."

    " Many, if not most, will rebel against taking orders from a flamboyant gay." Now that is funny!! Not all gays are "flamboyant" and I am sure the ones that are, would not enlist in the military.

    Coffee Makers and how often do you replace them??

    I only leave it plugged in long enough to brew the coffee. We are just wondering if the fake sine wave is what is killing our coffee makers so fast.:confused:

    The only Bunn coffee makers I have seen are the little ones. Do they come in a 10 cup and where would I get one??
