Never said I was a Christian. Never said I'm glad he's dead. I just said good riddance. Glad he lost his job. Nothing personal... just politics. My God! Heartless??? I heard somewhere that the people who advocate for tolerance, are the most intolerant. Could you be one of 'those'? Are you a...

I'm not up to Mark Wood skill yet! :D But I do love the way he plays Stairway to Heaven with his Viper and a wah peddle. :cool:

Kazper... sent you a pm.

John Murtha died of complications from gall bladder surgery. He was 77. Another no good libocrat gone. He treated his constituents like dirt; and they were stupid enough to keep him. Like I said with Ted... good riddance.

Hate to tell you that both Goldwater and Reagan were "outside the box" conservative thinkers. You may not like the "same ol" that Palin is preaching... but it's repetitiveness that sinks into the brains of the masses... ie, Hope and Change. Goodtude... hope you like tamales with your grits...

So in other words you're gonna be a recruiter? :D

Oh... they still have the soapbox forum? :confused: :rolleyes:

Col... maybe you'd understand if you flip a truck going 70, and hit a patch of ice. Or maybe feeling the truck taking on a mind of its own, going 45 thru Dayton. Or maybe feeling the truck fishtail going 5, as you put the brakes on, in Detroit. I've seen Iowa look like a warzone. I've seen...

It's an electric violin that you can plug headphones into, so the noise is in your ear, and not in your co-driver's. :D

Actually, the road gives me plenty of time away from distractions. My main goal is to get good enough to play with Sarah. She took up the violin, and is doing pretty well. I have some serious catching up to do! :D Only argosy that's catchin my eye right now is the blue one. Can't get approved...

Headin to Vegas, despite what Obama says. Us Big Business guys need to take a break! I sure will once we get out there! (on the board, of course) After this run, the last two weeks have seen us put 7600 LM on the truck. Not bad for 4 runs! Think I'll treat Jay to a humongous steak on the strip. :p

I wouldn't call it a job if he's sittin on his arse going on for 4 weeks! TJ... you need to do something, NOW! Get on the horn with the owner, and tell him get you something, or let you relocate. This is only a weird time if you feel helpless. You're not!

I'm thinking of getting a silent electric viola, and take it with me to practice. I'd like to hear from others who take a guitar, or other instrument with them; and whether they have reactions from co-drivers or other passersby. Also, how do you enjoy playing in the truck? Do you think it's...

Funny how we can't name this company, since word usually gets back to the owner, and he comes stomping in here with a red face and accusations flying. Whatever works, tho. His guys move at the expense of others. I guess that's the name of the game. One guy I talked to, with nameless, claimed he...

That's the way you do it! :)

After that copper mine load, we moved up to Kingman, AZ. Next day, got one picking up Friday in Long Beach/Compton going to Ft Edward, NY. 330 unpaid dh for nearly 2900 loaded. Longest load either of us has ever done. Dropped this morning, and here we sit... getting our windshield fixed from a...

Maybe TJP would enlighten us as to what company he's driving for. I have a few ideas myself.

If you're out of money, then I understand. If you have money, there's no reason not to dh to Dallas or Memphis. Bout 5 days is the most I'll wait. WA, Houston, New England. I did stay a week in Laredo, tho. I liked the Family Gardens too much! :D

Why would you dh that far for an oil change? Baltimore is pretty regular for freight. Columbus... eh... about the same as Baltimore. I woulda headed right up to Hagerstown. Or have you already waited there awhile?

Dropped yesterday at a copper mine in Bagdad, AZ. That was a place to remember! Heading to CA tonight for a morning p/u to NY. WEEEEEE!!!
