    ..."All you guys want to do is spend money. If his brains are already shot, does he really need a helmet? But, I'm sure they'll be some whiny group of do-gooders that'll complain if he doesn't have one. See what you can find for 10 or 20 bucks at that flea market down the road." Stars phone...

    Where are we? April 1st

    That's the sound of freedom, my friend. Embrace it! I live right next to the Alpena airport. I love it when the jets are in town. Free air show! Bob the bulldog, on the other hand, gets totally freaked out. He'll spend a lot of time sitting right next to someone and shaking.

    a cut above part 2

    I know what you mean about feeling like the Lone Ranger doing the speed limit in the city. Out on the open road, going 10 or even 15 over the limit is, more often than not, not a dangerous thing. The interstate system was designed for high speeds. The 10 percenters I was talking about are the...

    a cut above part 2

    The study will accurately reflect one persons experience during one trip. That's about it. Since I started driving in '76, I think the big change out here is that there are more of us. There's always been the "10 percenters". That vocal and visible minority that give the group a bad name...

    ..."Let them build their bridge. We've got a really tricked out Big Wheel and a guy that's turned his brain to mush to drive it. I've talked to Travis Pastrana and the crew from the Nitro Circus and they're going to build us a set of ramps. We'll pump Doug up with glue, strap him in the Big...

    Highway Star's agent gets out of a limo. "Where's the producers meeting? Has anyone seen Star?" "Yeah", says Wellarmed, "he's over at the BBQ truck with Chong. Be careful you don't get nailed with the rib bones flying around." "Star! Baby! Great to see you!" He knows he needs to stroke Stars...

    "...My agent tells me you desperately need me in an acting role in this project. So far, I've been happy submitting my script contributions from the resort in the Virgin Islands that I booked for myself and my entourage. If you've all realized how to treat a truly big star, then I think we can...

    Cut! Cut! Obviously some bonehead in editing screwed up. If we switch the previous 2 story entries, we can maintain continuity. Annndddd... Action!

    ...they ask him to empty his pockets. "Ahhh, you want me to, like, take everything out of my pockets?" "Yes, Mr. Chong." "But that would be, like, invading my personal space, man! I have rights!" "Sorry Mr. Chong, but if you want to get on the plane you'll have to comply." "Ahhh, I gotta go to...

    Garmin c340 minor frustration

    I purchased the updated software for my c330. What I didn't know until I installed it was that it was too big for my unit. I had to drop Canada in order to have the complete lower 48. May not be an issue with a 340...

    I'll always have one for the reasons that have been mentioned. I run it with the RF gain turned down. Sometimes it is turned off. Album version of "Inagoddadavida" anyone?

    DougTravels is Bored Storytelling Episode II

    With the help of EO, by the time he hit the water he was a certified diver and was outfitted with complete diving equipment. Hitting the cold water just totally, like, killed his buzz. That's when the reality set in that he would need a new truck. He swam to the surface just in time to see...

    need advice from the seasoned vets

    Gs says he can prove he was co-driver on the "last few hauls". That makes it sound like he didn't stay with the guy very long at all. If that's the case, I'm with Pj. The owner should recoup costs involved with putting this guy on. And, without question, listen up newbs. Get it in WRITING!!!

    "...You'll have to go to my website, cleanandgolden.com. You can purchase all the clean product you need." This really frustrated Doug as he watched the Mexicans sail through customs. The officers were so impressed with the way the Mexicans could bounce the front of the truck, they applauded and...

    Is that why I haven't seen you in a while? Hey Snappy, how did that changing your badge thing at the show work out? Did you rattle the powers that be?

    CR England

    You'd be better off looking for that in a forum that deals with truckload OTR. If there are people here that have been with them, there probably won't be many.
