    Drove by there this morning. Trailer looked pretty banged up, couldn't really see the Tractor though.
    It was still dark.

    The new breed of household movers got offended when I called them bedbuggers.
    really, no, Really, no, really. I wouldn't lie. Really, Yes, really, No, Really, Wait, Um.

    Really, they got offended, the bedbuggers, and I complimented them about knowing every bar we can get a big truck nearby.

    Kumar or God, maybe Jesus or John Malchovic was on my side and They were so drunk, I could have took them all, Maybe, Sounds Tough, EH?

    what was the question?

    Me neither, and I was one, as I vaguely remember. Bedbugger picked me up hitchhiking to the W coast, rode with him for 3 days and he paid me $500 + room + board for carrying some lamps and chairs. The guy was amazing, he carried dressers and couches inside on his back all by his lonesome, didn't want my help, never saw him bump a jamb. It was weed, whites and wine the whole way... which doesn't make any sense because we weren't running hard and got rooms every night.

    It was winter, windy, icy, terrible conditions when we passed a wreck and slew of trucks off the road, highway patrol standing around all over, and suddenly I'm looking down the road through the passenger side window. I swear that truck turned 90 degrees and he got it back. I can't remember where he picked me up or dropped me off, but I remember that.
