    Yeah, its kinda like a bunch of ivy league biologists and ecologists standing around in their slacks and loafers wondering how a field is gonna get planted. Read write and publish all ya want. Its all hot air until someone picks up a hoe.

    Well another successful day of sitting around doing nothing because everything is closed. TF I have a heavy barbell, plates and some dumbbells to occupy part of my days. Picked up my pencil again for a bit too:

    274ft. Well, that’s 74 ft longer than I’ve ever done. What’s your GVW?

    So how does one get into heavy haul/od? Not that I'm trying to just seems in the past its been next to impossible from what I've seen to get into it without knowing someone.

    Video: Horrifying moment crazed knifewoman stabs small child in the eye | Daily Mail Online

    I hope this video doesn’t break any rules. If it does, I wasn’t aware and I do apologize. In that thread about the 3 women at the Pilot truck stop, apparently I got under some people’s skin by calling all the guys that just sat back and watched ‘cowards.’

    I wondered that if they had skin in the game and these women were related if they would change their view. A friend sent me the above link. Well, I guess that answers my question.

    You guys with kids understand this: your job as dad is to put foot to arse on anyone that would bring harm to the family. Quit being nice.

    Six back quiet.

    Smaller steps. Go specialized first. OSOW on 5 axles. Then, as you become more acquainted with the rules and regs, you go to a 7 axle rig.

    Understand that the rules change when you hit SUPERLOAD status. By that time, all the “hurry up, gotta go Gotta Go GOTTA GO” should have been out of your system for quite some time and now you have the patience of an immortal.
