    You do realize constant exposure like that will damage your hearing. If you lose your hearing, you wont be able to pass the medical exam anymore and wont be ale to drive commercially.

    Wait. 50 pages later and you only just realized the spelling used a "u" instead of a "e". Whistles

    There are several people posting things about snow and ice conditions already.

    The OM is not pleased.

    I won't tell you what I saw yesterday.
    I'm sure it was just my imagination like a "black dog" or something...

    Lol, the OM is not pleased. I'm not jumping up and down with excitement either.

    I can hear this morning, when I got in yesterday to wash out the soybean meal, could’ve reloaded soybeans about 15 miles away, and ran 2-3 of them per day til it rains, but I felt as if I didn’t need to be out there, serious cough that hurt everywhere, so I passed.
    Still at home, away from everyone.
    Been taking some robitussin dm, that the bottle shows expired 12/15.

    Everyone is in awe that I chug it and doesn’t bother me, cause I can’t taste, they forget that when my sense of smell was lost 4-5 years ago, most of my taste was lost too, that’s why when I eat I’ve got to really inspect food, cause I’d it’s ruins I’ll not be able to taste it

    What caused the lost of your olfactory sense?

    Hauling chemicals in tankers, and being around tons of them that smelled horrible all I know.
    When they put that deep sea diving helmet on you on the test to smell that chemical they put in propane after I’d been hauling for 4 years on recertification, I couldn’t smell it, everyone else’s eyes were burning, they sprayed it twice on me, then said I’d I didn’t smell it I’d fail, so I said to try it again, which I said I smelled it, and passed.

    Mercaptain that might not be the correct spelling but that’s the stink in propane.

    Made my first fun run of the season across Elk yesterday. Gusting 50+mph, but fortunately it was mostly headwind. Killed my fuel economy, but no rollovers spotted.
