OWWWWWWWWWWWWW!! Not fun. I know when I rented trucks to move I never thought about height. I should have but having never driven a truck it never even entered my mind. Maybe it would be a good idea for the rental companies to STRESS that fact when they rent out a truck. Layoutshooter

Amen Brother, Life is far too short to walk around with a frown. Take it from me. I did that for far too long in the past. It sucks to feel like that all the time. I promise you it won't ever happen again. Enjoy your life. Do what you want. There are as many ways to earn a living, yes even...

I would love to be able to move to a non-smoking truck stop. Where are they? It is NOT a matter of inconvinence for Mrs. Layoutshooter, it is a health concern, for her and many others. One solution would be to place all "common" areas, showers, bathrooms etc. under a no smoking rule. Then make...

Sorry Greg, I won't use them then. You seem to have a very good grasp as to what is going on. I was talking to a current member of the military a few days ago and he was going into what they are hearing at thier daily briefings. It is NOT good. There is GREAT concern that as soon as we pull...

You are right IRT, that is how is has always been. Things don't change that is why it is so important to study history. This recession is no different than any other. It is not the end of the world, a major disaster or anything close to one. I don't even like hearing crisis 50 million time per...

Thanks Moose, athough, that sounded more like the "Road Runner" than "C-Link!!! By the way, is the check in the mail for all those "BEEPS"? LOL :p Layoutshooter

Very true, but, my wife can sit by a campfire all night and not be bothered and two minutes in a motel room that has not been smoked it for 3 days starts her eyes watering, nose running etc. There must be a component of cigarette smoke that gets her that is not present in wood smoke. He parents...

I am not familure with the configuration of the ships in use today. I have been out of the business for a long time. In my day, while there were some civilians working on navel collection ships, they were not the main force. They tended to be in a leasion capacity to the Navel Security Service...

You can be allergic to cigarette smoke and not to wood smoke. Layoutshooter

I am not in a panic, I have lived through this before. I can prove it. I am 58. If the last recessions had killed me I would not be 58. I figured that out all by myself. Get a grip. So? You might lose everything. Start over. It won't kill you. If it does kill you, you have nothing more to worry...

Just remember that you smoke "moves". It does not stay with you. While I don't want to regulate your smoking there is one really cold hard fact out there. There are MANY people, Mrs. Layoutshooter included, who are allergict to cigarette smoke. If we even stay in a motel room where someone had...

This is NO laughing matter, this is VERY serious. Things are heating up. Those who would do us harm KNOW that Obama has no idea in the world what is going on, it shows. They are moving to 1. see how far he can be pushed and 2. take advantage of his stupidity. He is cutting defense spending...

Re: Fright Hauling Expeditethatrs We are NOT in a depression, this recession is not even anything to right home about yet. Anyone my age has lived through worse. It may get worse, it may not. I can assure you of one thing, IF we continue to panic things WILL get worse!! We just need to take a...

I would not be surprised that we were running these opps for several years. We were running them when I was still in the business and I quit while King Clinton was rulling. We did not whine when we were "bothered" by the Soviets or Libians and we did not shoot water cannons. In the case of...

What a shame you don't believe our country. The Chinese, just like Libia in the 80's, claim international waters to be thier own. A good example would be the United States claiming the Gulf of Mexico as U.S. waters. That is what China is doing. The United States ALWAYS challenges that when it...

We got our truck back this morning and are now at the "J" south of Birmingham, AL. Just waiting for that wonderful "BEEP" to bring us from rags to riches!! Layoutshooter
