Ken I know what you meant lol. Yes the alternative would have sucked!

Thank you guys! Very glad it's not a recurrence . So David your cookies will be at macungie . GG2 I've not heard of those treatments but I will give you a call possibly tonite or tomorrow let me know a good time.

Well I got back from Lowville this morning and went to the doctors for my results. It seems I have some sort of staff infection that has somehow connected to the minor surgery I had back in December while I was on vacation. So right away I start chewing my doctor a new ass asking him why the hell it took this long to figure this out! I guess I should be thankful that this is all were dealing with, but it makes me very angry that my wife and daughter have been agonizing over this deal for two weeks! Me I just don't give a damn at this point because gods gonna do with me whatever he's gonna do. Just wish he'd make up his damn mind! Spoken like a true polish catholic lol. But anyways that's what I'm dealing with. Doc put me on some horse pill sized anti biotics that he warned me would keep me close to the bathroom. Just what I need with my job. But all things considered I should be happy it is what it is. It just upsets me that it has taken this long to find out. Not so much for my sake but for my wife and daughter, they've been through enough. But on behalf of myself and my family once again thank you for the prayers and well wishes. It's nice to know I've got friends that care even though I've never net some if you. Hopefully that will change. Mike

Keep the shiney side up! Glad your doing well.

The fact that a family member would do this to you Paul is probably what would burn my butt the most if it were me, I would be beyond angry. Hopefully a judge will grow a set and give him the time in jail that he deserves and while he's away the good lord will grab a hold of his heart and send him down a better path. That's my hope.

Yes GG you are right it's all just very frustrating especially since everything back in December was all clear. Grrrrrr! Yes Paul we do have to get the jeeps together. If I ever figure out how to post pics I will. Daughter passed her drivers test a month ago and has been driving to school and practice that's it. She got a lesson last week in the snow about how bitey the 4wd can be around curves when it piled her towards the side of the road. Scared her so bad she called me at home to come down and follow her the rest of the way home even though it was only about a half mile. Just ordered half doors for it this week for summer .

Ah never mind.

Thanks Paul, I'm just hoping for a best case scenario here.

Guess I find out later this week the final verdict. I hope it's anything but the worst. I'm working as much as possible to keep my mind off it. I honestly don't think I can put my wife and daughter through this again if it is. Your thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated.

Make sure you buy a cover for it if you do park it outside

Write the museum with what little info you have they might have the build sheet haha!

Rowdy you are one of the few exceptions. If I offended you in any way I opologize. But you are out here every day just like a lot of us on this site. You see the results of these schools and co's that just want a warm body behind the wheel. They don't teach these guys/gals nothing. The difference between you and them is you had a clue about what you were doing and the respect that goes along with it. These co's don't teach these folks respect or courtesy on the road, that's my main point. They have no self respect so I guess to expect them to show it for others is asking alot. The co's don't teach it and it shows when these clods are turned loose on the road.

If you need a place to store them I got room.

Certainly looks like a general to me Jt . Wonder if vinny could get a pic or 2 of that?

Paul hopefully he will get the punishment that's needed to make him see how wrong he has been.

Maybe this time the judge will do the right thing.

Truck driving was once a very noble profession, no longer the case today. The above mentioned co's are partly to blame for that. It burns my butt when the folks go through these so called driving schools and after only 3 weeks be handed a CDL and be called a PROFESSIONAL driver. Really?! These pro's are about as far from professional as you can get! Just walk into any truckstop and look around. Sweat pants, sandals, unclean etc. then these co's say they are trying to clean up the image of the industry. Oh I forgot to mention these three week driving school wonders can't drive either! I started with my class b permit and was on it 6 months total before my trainer(buddy) felt I was safe enough to take my test. I then drove mixers , dumps, for about 3 years before getting my permit to learn how to drive class a. Once again another 5-6 months before taking class a test. That experience over the course of all those months on a permit helped to make me the safe driver I am today. So I refuse to consider these three week wonders professionals. They are the furthest thing from it. And unfortunately its because of them that all of us have a bad reputation. I'm sorry if I offended anyone but its just how I feel. Insure those of you who earned your cdl's would mostly agree with my statement. If in any way I am wrong please tell me. Mike

One question, why would any young person today want to go into the trucking industry? It's not the same job it once was.

Karma has its benefits Paul !

She's very beautiful !

Welcome aboard! We're addicted to pictures!

Hey vinny, was up in Lowville Saturday night was wondering why you and papa haven't grabbed that r model at yanceys? Is it even for sale?

Thanks for the thoughts guys, ill know in 2 weeks what were dealing with. :-(

Thanks guys I appreciate the support. Funny Doug maney had just sent me a message the other day about a cracker box for sale by his place and I told him I wanted to wait till I was 2 yrs cancer free. I must have ESP. I'm in a holding pattern right now waiting for more tests, so I will keep working and praying also. I guess the thing that upsets me most is watching my wife and daughter being so worried and concerned while putting on a happy face. I hate the thoughts of putting them through this again.
