    Last time someone told me that, i said sorry, I should have planned for the Head-on Fatality that closed the hiway and diverted us 2.5 hours out of our way.

    Strangely enough, they declined to discuss it when i got in.

    Ive actually told some office people in a couple of companies that kind of scenario a time or two when death was near. I think the words were the effect of "You don't get to lecture me today, if it went the other way just a little bit there would be no me to lecture ever and several dead for your company to deal with in court."

    Those were some bad days. Im happy to forget them and move on. Those kinds of things tended to silence the drones in the company office. And you wonder why I don't deal with them when I don't have to. If they don't like it they can always fire me.

    Well, there is spaghetti and meat filled sauces in 4 containers ready to go into the weekend of pasta. The debauchery is going to be pretty tough on those not used to 1000 mile meals. After a 15 hour nap to set the food.

    OMG! A woman tried to sue a Pilots truck stop for damages from that of a roll of toilet paper. It may have been a harmless joke yet a sue happy woman saw it as a way to goldbrick. It doesnt say that in the article. But seriously! What damage is taken from a roll of toilet paper!?!

    I'm betting they put the roll on top of a door. If that hit you just right, there could be some damages.
