    I saw a Crete driver today going around a cloverleaf offramp with his driver's window down and a medium size dog sticking halfway out of it.

    Oddly enough, I signed the pet agreement today. I'll pick up the dog next time home.

    It was a young black driver with a grey dog enjoying the air.
    I looked at my dashcam video of it, but it's a bad angle

    Yep, sometimes you have to speed up to block them and sometimes just slow down and let them ahead.

    I think if they tried that with me, I'd have to give them 200 pounds of powdered lime or sulphur spread every where. And probably several slightly opened packets of tuna fish hid behind the cabinets,

    But I love over the road freight, I like being gone a month at a time, but I cannot stand running the 300 mile loads and unloading every morning, reloading and driving 350 miles per day,

    The local company I applied to really, really needs drivers because of the steel mill expanding. and another issue, If I could make a grand a week and be home every day, plus 2 days off, I think I would like that, #### yeah I would,
    But then it will be 6 days working, 3,000 miles per week, home every day and a day off;
    Either way I should end up with a keg of Yuengling and a tank of air to keep it fresh at home or out at the shed,
