    Hey slim, I like your signature, huge Pink Floyd fan! "The time has come, the song is over, thought I'd something more to say". (You know it's good stuff when your son, who is 30 years younger, says, "Dad, that song is awesome"!)

    Tanker work is a great job. All I've ever drove is hazmat tankers. Started driving one straight out of CDL school.

    I want two of those toy tanker trucks; strap one to each foot and use them for roller skates.

    Did tankers for 2 years, spent the last 7 pulling flats. Going back to tanks, the money is way to easy.
