I remember Arnold saying that in a movie, just "get out". I don't remember now if it was a Rambo movie or a Terminator movie. I found it, one of the Terminator movies. https://youtu.be/uQwjojvRNI4?si=XdPnb2C51JEinrAv

I'll remember that if I ever get thrown in the slammer in Reno. When I get out I'm going to demand that they give me a horse!

I think so too. Don't worry, if we're wrong I'm sure the smartest one on here will set us straight pretty quick.🤣

By the way, anybody know anything about a '37 LaSalle?

Everything's always on topic here...I don't even remember what the topic was, I have to go back and look. Meanwhile, here's Susanna in the 80's.

I don't think anybody has any problems at all with people coming here legally, obeying the law, being good citizens in general. But when all the illegals have been just walking across the border freely for the last several years that should be everybody's problem. I'm sure some are good people and I'm just as sure some are absolutely no good, the drug dealers, rapists, robbers, and murderers. And they are only here to take advantage of the system, be it by criminal activity, collecting welfare by false pretenses, or voting for democrats. And you mean that even though these thugs and criminals walked into this country illegally they can't be rounded up and shipped back to wherever they came from legally? Common sense should apply here, but it obviously does not. It's a good thing I'm not king for a day, when I hauled their asses back I wouldn't land the plane, I'd just open the door and say "get out", in my Arnold Schwarzenegger voice.🤣

I have to say, that Susanna Hoffs is one of the most beautiful wimmens ever, in my opinion. I don't know anything about Nena, but every time I hear that song nowadays all I think about is this- And I've seen ZZ Top in concert more than any other band, but I've always regretted not going to see them in Roanoke when they were with George Thorogood.

We watched this TV show a while back called Outlander. Actually it's a series, had about 8 or 10 seasons. Y'all might have heard of it, but it was new to me. There's so many shows on so many channels now it's hard to keep up with them all. But somebody told Zina about it, she started watching it, so I started watching it, so she went back to the beginning. And it's really good, seems to be historically accurate too, very entertaining show if you're looking for something to watch.

I remember many years ago when I was picking up a load at a port somewhere and they were unloading John Deere tractor parts off of a ship. And someone said "but I thought John Deere tractors were made in the U.S.!" And we were told "they're ASSEMBLED in the US, but all the parts come from overseas".

True that! I was out with Jeff Moore a couple of weeks ago and he said all the new trucks they're getting are well over $200,000 now. I saw a 2022 Peterbilt for sale the other day and they wanted over $300,000 for it. When I first started driving one of Jeff's trucks he traded the 2000 model W900L I was driving for this 2006 Peterbilt. The Peterbilt was only a year old, only had around 100,000 miles on it. 550 Cat, 18 speed, lots of stainless steel and chrome, top of the line interior, all LED lights, etc. And he paid right around $100,000 for it. And you're lucky to even make a trip without an engine light coming on with these new trucks. But I have to say, I had my share of issues with this Pete too. It had the ACERT engine and it had many "intake valve actuator fault" issues. I think maybe it broke down too much for the previous owner and that's why he only had it a year, but I don't know.

Happy birthday Bob!

I think John McCain showed his true colors when he gave the thumbs down with the deciding vote on "repeal and replace" with obamacare, and we're all paying for it now. He voted that way because he didn't like Donald Trump, not because it was in the best interest of the American people.

She was supposed to be cleaning the interior of the big green International that runs now, but I caught her taking an unauthorized beer break. I didn't fire her or anything because I really like how she works.

Oh no, them Winfall wimmens are tough!

I was going back searching for a picture and ran across this old post. No worries here, turns out that transmission is NOT an overdrive unit, and it will NOT run 70 mph. unless you drove it off the side of the grand canyon, and nobody would "drive it most anywhere" when I first got it, unless you hired a wrecker to follow you. 🤣

I haven't been through Winfall since the last time but here's an old picture I took when I was stuck in traffic.

I was wondering about that truck, I was reminded of it too. I used to pass by it every time I went to load at Lane Steel in Mckees Rocks. I took several pictures of it too.

They did.

You're not the only one to notice that!

Happy birthday Vlad, from me and Zina!

Oh yeah, I see lots of stuff. There's still Christmas lights on that balcony...there's a Cargostar International back there at the edge of the woods, behind that lift and the orange and black car, along with a couple more fire trucks. Definitely one of the weirdest places i've ever seen, like something you'd see in a horror movie. Wonder why there's so many old trucks and van trailers parked all around? And only one or two houses in the whole town that looks like the grass has been cut in the last 3 years, but there's some fairly new looking vehicles and boats parked in some of the driveways. Several broke down lawn mowers parked in the weeds though. Strange.

I'm on the computer now, Zina wants me to print something for her. I'm going to take another look at google earth too, I can see it a lot better than I can on the phone. Maybe i'll even see the cat lady.

I found the video on my phone.
