couldn't say- that was the entire article I read, didn't give a lot of details.

yeah Joe, they're pretty old.

I was looking for my lug wrench in the shed this morning. I was digging and looking with a flashlight...knew it was in there somewhere, but I couldn't find it. After hauling out half the crap in there and putting it in the yard, I decided I should just clean the whole thing out. It was packed so full you couldn't get in it without climbing over stuff. Wasn't long before I wished i'd never started the project, but it had to be done. Now of course i'm glad I got it done- lots of room now! Should have taken a "before" picture though. Found this in the bottom of a box. We had a driver at H.H.Moore's that was bitten in the heel by a brown recluse spider. His CB handle was Macho Man.This was probably 15 years ago or so. By the time they figured out what it was, he ended up losing his leg just below his knee. He couldn't work, so I made 2 kettles of stew and sold it in Appomattox and at our company safety meeting. This is one of the flyers I wrote that my son Morgan printed for me, even has pictures of the stew pot on it. Found a helmet too. Got a trash bag full of these Darrell Waltrip Tide boxes. I started to put all of them in the burn barrel but changed my mind- maybe they're worth something to somebody.

Well, I...uh...I saw...OK, I saw a solid black Freightliner Argosy somewhere this week, and it was a damn sharp looking unit!..there, I said it.

Not many pictures this week, but here's a few. After I unloaded the insulation in Charlottesville Monday, I went to Bedford and picked this load up. They sold this equipment to a place in Bloomingdale, Il. I don't know what it is, but the big machine on the front was sold for $39,000 and the other things were 14-$1,500 each. The prices were on the paperwork. A '68 or '69 Firebird for sale. Beautiful car, solid black, but I still haven't gotten a good picture of it. Headed up the AA Highway in Kentucky. Picked up 8 scrap coils in Portage, In. and 8 more in Warsaw. Took these to Suffolk,Va. Saw this Transtar in Fairplain,W.V. on the way back. Went from Suffolk to Chesapeake and picked this container up. Gonna drop it off up the road here in Rustburg Monday. Saw a big Mack mixer and a school bus on the way in. And some scrapers like randyp likes to see- parked, rusting, and trees growing up through them.

A man was found dead in his home over the weekend. Detectives at the scene found the man face down in his bathtub. The tub had been filled with milk, sugar and cornflakes. A banana was sticking out of his ass. Police suspect a cereal killer.

Good looking Brockway!

what?..so, you don't like U models any more,eh?

You're right about that. And a dump valve to dump the air on that back axle is really handy with a spread too when you get in a tight spot. If you don't already have a spare switch in the truck to wire a dump valve and you have to put one in, i'd put an indicator light on it so you won't forget it's dumped and take off down the road with it. That's hard on tires, especially if you have to slam on the brakes.

neat pictures indeed!

The only good news is Fox news in my opinion.

I was feeling your pain Mark, until Randy made me laugh!Seriously, what a f#**ing idiot this guy must be (not randyp,I mean the dispatcher). 41Chevy is right, that's the only way it could be done. That's the dumbest stuff i've ever seen,5 stops in 2 hours? 7 stops in 3 hours? Bay City to Traverse City in 30 minutes?..well, that might be doable, I think it's only about 125 or 130 miles across there. But you could barely get 5 stops off in 2 hours in Gladys,Va. where there's no traffic, if you had to go to 5 different places,open doors,back to a dock,wait for some hateful a-holes to get around to unloading their shit they ordered but now seem to have never heard of,unload,get paperwork signed,pull out, close doors,go to next stop and repeat the process. Tell them to use full power on the bitch slapping beam randyp. Here's a picture of a girl in a car Mark,you deserve something good after all that fuster-cluck!

No way Rob's coming back- I talked to him on the phone and he's very busy at his new job. Said he was out of the high-stress radar business and was now loving his new job as a dispatcher/trip planner for some trucking operation that works out of Indiana. He said it was a piece of cake compared to his old job, nothing to it. He said he shipped a load out with 18 stops on it all the way from Detroit up to Traverse City, and the driver was going to get them off in 3 days.( )

wow, never seen such from facebook.

...or this one...

how about this one- it's better than Ed's-

that's not a problem

OK,deal.

Well here's some more! Now THIS is a truck- this is the Diamond T I like best, big and bad looking,eh? Some Emeryvilles- A hot babe...just thought i'd throw that in...

Pretty much the same around here- corn was terrible, except for some low grounds, lot of folks cut it for silage instead of grain, but the soybean fields around here are looking pretty good.

Dang it!..now I could never do it, since you asked and even said please...couldn't sleep at night if I did...rats! How about if I just use your face in future projects, no Papa or U-model?

wow, it'll take a huge pot to cook all those beans in!

I like Diamond T's too. Way ahead of their time in looks in my opinion, like the Bighorn. They'd be some of the best looking trucks on the road today. Here's one with an added bonus picture of nocluejoe66.

They must come from up behind the trees somewhere, there's a fence between the rocks and the grassy area along the right side of the picture that goes from the road up to the trees.

thank you very much, i'm sure that will be used in many future photoshop opportunities.
