  1. I read somewhere that wiping the headlight covers with Deep Woods Off- the insect repellent- works well to clear them up. Had to be Deep Woods, not regular Off. I've never tried it, but if you happened to have a can of it around it might be worth a try for a quick and easy fix, not to mention cheap.
  2. I "managed my attachments" today, and last night too. I deleted over a thousand pictures- probably closer to 2 thousand. Amazing how they pile up! And I still have a long ways to go. I didn't delete them from my computer, just on BMT. So if you look at something old and the picture's not there, it's probably still on my PC somewhere- I had over 8,800 pictures saved at last count, almost as many as Superdog has Macks.
  3. Meanwhile, in Hellertown...
  4. Mr. and Mrs. Vision at the drive thru... Vision at home on the weekend...
  5. Thanks Medium- your check's in the mail.
  6. Watching Highway Thru Hell...wow, very intense situations!

  7. what?..the part where I said I was smart? Yeah, that was a good one!
  8. I'm with you, I think there's some king of trickery involved and they had an ulterior motive, but I was too smart to fall for it.
  9. What a coincidence! I stopped in Winfall on the way home today and this girl also claimed to have lost a quarter in her car. Wanted me to help look for it...of course I told her I didn't have time. Then just as I was leaving, this girl had the nerve to ask me if i'd help her with a splinter she claimed to have in her thigh. I told her my eyes weren't that good anymore, I couldn't see something as small as a splinter. So I got in the truck and left.
  10. A-Hah! Now I remember his name- I ran across an old picture of him when I was looking for the randyp short bus picture.
  11. I had to Google lally columns to see if I was a super trucker. Never heard that term before.
  12. Old Bill asked me a few weeks ago if I wanted a new leather cap that he got from Trimac. I said "sure, if you're going to throw it out i'll be glad to have it." It came in the mail yesterday- nice cap! Never seen a size adjuster thinga-ma-bob like this- It's way too nice to wear to work, i'll just stick it in the memorabilia cabinet with the other trucking memorabilia stuff in the trucking memorabilia cabinet. He sent me a webcam too, way nicer than the one I have now, but it wouldn't work on my computer. It only worked with Windows XP and older systems.
  13. This was just a few miles from here- http://www.newsadvance.com/news/local/one-dead-in-campbell-county-fire/article_7c7db18c-ad84-11e4-95ab-5f84373ca792.html I passed by there on the way to Concord this morning. I didn't even notice the house because there was frozen water all across the highway there in a spot about 15 or 20 feet long. It was only 12 degrees at the time. I took a picture on the way home, it was about 37 degrees by then and they had put sand on the ice spot.
  14. I did.
  15. Stupid picture of the week-
  16. All the rivets in my tool box door broke last summer, so I got a cordless drill and some screws and fixed it myself in the parking lot at the shop. It only had four rivets in it to begin with. I put six screws in it- The other day I opened the tool box on the headache rack and it almost came off in my hand- only the top rivet was holding the door to the hinge. They fixed it at the shop though- put all of two screws in it. They were supposed to have fixed this one too, all the rivets have come loose, but I guess they figured it didn't need more fixing- I already had a rubber strap on it. I guess the road bounce and vibration breaks the rivets, this door on the passenger side tool box rarely gets opened. I went down to Dillwyn with a van today, picked up a load of Kyanite going to Chester, W.V. Leaving the Mullite plant ...in a big cloud of dust.
  17. I think everything Art's got is for sale.
  18. http://www.newsadvance.com/news/local/more-details-emerge-about-crash-landing-of-liberty-university-plane/article_3997397a-ad97-11e4-96ee-97dc3361ebee.html
  19. All I know is Milt Pappas pitched for the Orioles and the big bad wolf wanted to eat little red riding hood...probably no connection to the car.
  20. I'm at the point where i'm too old to fight and too fat to run, so I'll just stay home and let medium TCB for me. I didn't really care about the game either, none of my favorite teams were in it, but I did listen to it on the radio when I was parked for the night in Carlisle, Pa. It was a good one though, I thought Seattle had it won- just like I thought Green Bay had it won when they played Seattle in the playoffs.
  21. Is that Steely Dan? They were great!
  22. I want to come see you and take the tour visit and bring you some hot sauce when you're in Fork Union.
  23. ...then there was that other guy on Ice Road Truckers that I called "the brown noser". I can't remember his name, but he was on the phone calling headquarters every time somebody else did something that didn't suit him. And he had turned a truck over himself.
  24. Thanks Fred, I don't run 29 a whole lot anymore, just once in a while. Getting through all those 10,000 stop lights between Charlottesville and Ruckersville is a real pain in the butt with a heavy load. I used to stop to eat at that old truck stop that was on the right just north of Ruckersville sometimes, it's closed now, or maybe it's something else. Had a little tire shop out back. When I first saw those things off in the distance I thought it was a roller coaster!
  25. I'm the old guy too, but I have my name on the front of my shirt.
