    Penis

    I responded to a post about naming one's truck. My reply stated that I had not named my van nor had I named my penis. I was asked via PM to change the word penis to anatomical part. So to anyone who is interested, I have no pet names for any of my anatomical parts other than the official...

    Has anybody used Panther's new TripPak scanning service? I have a pro and b.o.l. from Friday. I waited until I got home to download and print the cover sheet. Does TripPak provide confirmation of a successful scan? If a truckstop has a TripPak drop box do they also provide the scanning...

    The following is a true story. It happened out on the road late one night like all good stories do. The names have been changed because I don't remember them and they really aren't important. I will refer to the stars of this broadcast as Ben and Jerry. I was driving late one night in the...
