  1. I would have no interest in trading jobs with you.
  2. Reminds me of a Freightliner I drove. Had a Cat engine,Rockwell transmission,ran pretty good,looked pretty good too. But with the doors shut you could stick your hand through the gap at the lower rear corners of both doors. And it had a kitchen chair for a passenger seat.
  3. That's right. We should meet in Rob's back yard in July. I'll bring a grill,and Rob would be assured of having enough fuel to get there.
  4. well shhhhhh-oot! no wonder I couldn't find it,i'm a day late
  5. If I were in the area it could be a possibility. I always wanted to go to a national convention but never have. Baltimore a few years ago was probably the best opportunity i'll ever get and I couldn't make that.
  6. Here's one that's not,i'm back from Pittsburgh. I unloaded the 60' beams (tarped ) in Ambridge,then went down to Pittsburgh and loaded 5 coils. Dropped them in Lynchburg a while ago and bobtailed home. It ain't like blindsiding a 53 off the street into an 18" wide alley in the Bronx,but that's why Vision gets paid the big bucks.
  7. is headed to Ambridge,Pa. today with 60' beams...tarped.

  8. Just what I needed!..ain't even got to the second one
  9. maybe some of this is funny-
  10. I caught the end of the race too. Never went to a race at Daytona,but I did stop by just to check it out and caught a test session going on one time, back in the 80's or early 90's. My wife and I used to go to every race at Charlotte,Richmond,Martinsville,and Rockingham from the early 80's to mid 90's. Haven't been to one since. Dog poop...yeah,not much funny there.
  11. That's good-took me a while to get it!..but as they say,i'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
  12. Anything's probably good with enough sauce on it. Jo tells me the story (about 3 times a week) about where she used to work(Biscuitville),where one day a week they'd bring something in for lunch just to get away from biscuits. She would usually bring something like green beans and potatoes, or macaroni and cheese, hamburgers,or bread. One day one of her co-workers brought pig ears. Jo said "it doesn't taste like anything". The other woman said "put some hot sauce on it"..."it still doesn't taste like anything"..."well,put some more hot sauce on it".
  13. ...eh? Must be why nobody's said anything funny today. I got my running done this morning,got ribs on the grill now. I check in periodically for funny stuff,but apparently Rob,Rhasler,Randy,Mark,and Hat City are also pursuing other endeavors. So much for today's entertainment.
  14. Yep,that's one chain. I was gonna put a chain through each one and pull it to the side,but that's the way they said to chain them. They even had a picture they showed you showing how to run the chains, so that's what I did. Appreciate the offer there too! Don't be surprised if you get a call some night!
  15. Went to Houston again this week. Last time there was snow and ice, this time I had the AC on. Brought these military trailers back from Sealy, Tx. to Butner, N.C. Really nice folks at the National Guard armory in Butner- they helped me unchain the load and brought the chains and binders to me while I hung them on the headache rack. Then when I got to Petersburg to load I got my window cleaner and a paper towel and started cleaning this trailer-it's a carbon trailer.
  16. well waddya know- it's old news now, but I found that red Euclid picture.
  17. I was looking around for midget clown porn and found this site purely by accident. Lots of truck pictures and interesting stuff here- http://www.roadtransport.com/blogs/big-lorry-blog/
  18. Seems Rob was right,everybody's having a birthday this year. Have a good one Barry!
  19. I was driving-well,steering anyway- a Farmall C tractor before I even started school. All I had to do was drive between 2 rows of hay bales while Dad and my grandfather loaded the wagon,then Dad would jump on at the end of the field and get me pointed back up between the next 2 rows. So being around tractors and farm equipment all my life,I knew how dangerous it could be.But my last year of high school I only had 2 classes in the morning,then i'd go home and help daddy on the farm. I was picking corn one day,had a mounted cornpicker on a 5000 Ford tractor. There was a set of rollers that went up behind you and a fan-the rollers shucked the corn, most of it that is, and the fan would blow the shucks off to the side. A corn picker is very dangerous, there are many things that can grab you, and I knew to always turn it off before you do anything. So I knew better than to reach behind me and clear the shucks away that had packed up in the chute with it running but I did it anyway. Something caught the end of the sleeve of my jacket-and pulled the whole sleeve off. If it had been a better jacket that the sleeve didn't come off of it would have been disastrous. It scared the hell out of me. I took what was left of the jacket way down in the woods and threw it away and never told anyone.
  20. they keep getting better-slightly-but that's funny right there!
  21. Thank you very much indeed!
  22. I remember that song,I had a tape with that song,and one called "Damned DOT" I think. Seems to me it was Jake Brake and the All Trucker Band-might be on youtube or something.
  23. That's the "Boomer", a 50hp. tractor. I've seen a few sitting on dealer's lots.
