  1. I've heard the flatcar story since i've been driving too. Heard it was in California, Arizona, and Texas, maybe a few more states.
  2. Anything going here yet? I'll donate what I can to the cause too.
  3. I'm in Gladys,Va. Actually i'm about halfway between Gladys and Altavista. Here's some pictures, I can't figure out how to put a direct link to Google Earth.
  4. My youngest son went to see Rush a while ago, and this is some of his photoshop work...totally different than my poorly photochopped pictures. That's my grand son on stage with them.
  5. Picked up this girl hitchhiking to Winfall the other day. She layed the seat back... took off her shirt... then her pants...then she put her feet up and said "we don't have to go straight to Winfall, do we"? I said "git your feets offa that dashboard, I just Armoralled it a couple of weeks ago"!
  6. That's why I didn't call, you weren't there.
  7. It's posted as a 15mph. curve, I just ease around it. You can look out the passenger window from about where this picture was taken and see the road below. If anybody's coming the other way I just stop until they get around the curve. It drops away pretty steep too and the tires on the front axle of the trailer will be completely off the ground coming around it. I've been around it with a 53' van with the tandems slid forward a good bit and drug the rear bumper on the pavement all the way around it. I put a little video of it on youtube a few years ago, but I was headed west then, still driving the Peterbilt.
  8. It was kind of late, I went up 99 to 350 to 80 going to Brockport, then went to Alliance and loaded firebrick and came through Canton on the way back.
  9. glad I wasn't drinking coffee when I scrolled down to this, or i'd be heading to the Wal-Mart store to get a new keyboard!
  10. I'll keep an eye out for them so I can throw out the welcome mat when they get here.
  11. It's been raining most of the week, but I got a few snapshots in between storms. Here's some old units sitting in the field. These are all on rt.29, north of Amherst, Va. where I went to look at that Case tractor for Rob. Don't know if they're for sale or anything else about them really. I took a load of cinder block mats to Brockport, Pa. to the Whetstone Dam project. Turned off rt. 153 onto a dirt road... long ways back there... almost 2 miles. passed Cookie Joe's, which was apparently established in 2005. All I saw was this sign propped on a plastic chair. My directions said unload after you passed a stand of big pine trees, this must be them. That other truck getting unloaded down there was a clue too. Saw this well dressed driver at the Sheetz at exit 97 on 80. He might be wearing shorts and sandals, but he's got the tuxedo T-shirt thing going on. I saw a well dressed girl in a car too. Some road construction equipment in West Virginia. The curve at Chimney Corners. A Commercial Steel Erection Sterling hauling an R model. Then I saw another girl in another car. I only took a picture because she had a KW emblem in her lap at first, must be a KW fan I guess. Traffic lined up creeping up Afton Mtn. about 10 mph. The right lane was closed up ahead for construction. They're putting up avalanche walls. Looks pretty nice on the west side of the mountain, it was rainy all the way from Richmond to the top of the hill, as seen in the rear view mirror. Traffic was pretty heavy on 64 and 81 yesterday, glad i'm not out there today. ...until I went 64 west from Lexington, then it wasn't bad. This is from North Mtn, heading west. This is going down the other side of North Mtn, looking towards West Virginia. I took a small mill roll to Milton, W.V. This big one I brought back wouldn't fit in the steel rack it was in, so I had to set up coil racks to put it in. Saw this girl walking down 501 on the way home. She should really get some sensible shoes if she does a lot of walking. I saw a broke down car about a half mile before I saw her, but I didn't get a picture of it.
  12. meanwhile, in Nevada...
  13. Looks great! Long enough for a sleeper, a mixer drum, a dump body, and leave the 5th. wheel on it too.
  14. RA's? rotten apples? royal antelopes? real asses? I give up.
  15. Amen brother!
  16. All i'm saying is that it was intended as a joke, and anyone who knows about Dr. Phil knows he would never actually say that, hence the joke. Maybe a bad joke, but I don't think that should label him as a "gratuitous" curser because he was not. I just post what I post because I like it, or think it's funny, and others might like it or think it's funny. Like this original post, in "Odds and Ends", where you can post about whatever you want, I thought it was of interest because almost everybody here knows and likes Rob, that's all. Never put any thought into being liked or not liked- everybody doesn't like everything, some people don't like anything...never mind. Anyway, i'm movin' on...that's the last you'll hear from old other dog...bye.
  17. indeed! I cooked some fresh asparagus on the grill Saturday evening too- just cut it at Mom and Dad's Saturday morning. Wrapped it in aluminum foil with just salt, pepper, and a little butter. It was delicious, better than the steaks I cooked. Couldn't pay me to eat it when I was a kid!
  18. Is the wheat salvagable for flour if they run it through a dryer, or they just gonna grind it for feed or something?
  19. but what if he visits Canton and you're in Altoona? Or what if he visits Altoona and you're in Canton?
  20. That's what it looks like all right. My oldest son used to drive a dump truck that used to be a Warrior Express truck. He drives a Western Star dump now for a different company. I just checked his facebook page, he didn't have any pictures of it either, just the Western Star.
  21. now that's just funny right there! Dr. Phil saying you need fucking help-hilarious! I gather you don't like me either since you're spreading false doctrine about me, but that's OK- nobody likes everybody, and everybody doesn't like somebody...except me, I like everybody.
  22. I agree Mike, I've met him in person and he is a good guy, and very knowledgeble, and good to everybody- first one to offer help. He even offered to paint my hood for free.There's no "man crush" about it and it isn't our business, it's just odd that he was here all the time, posted all the time, quickest with a joke, then "poof"...gone. At least he gave a farewell address here, and didn't delete all his posts like he did on the other site.
  23. Randyp sent me a message on facebook a while back, said he had some health issues but was feeling better. He said to tell everyone here hello,and he'd be back.
