    We went with a more peaceful resolution. I stood next to him so he wouldn't sway so bad, he finally got tired, and down he went (with some assistance so he did it smoothly).

    looks like a typical day ( this time of year) over here.

    The no crown on the road is a slight concern for me though.

    I was just catching up on my WIIS reading, while I eat my breakfast sammich parked, for a change, instead of driving. Civilized, like.

    I was on I-40 eb in TN yesterday.

    At one point I could see a CDL school with a nice, big yard. The cones were set up for an alley dock exercise, and I could see about six students bunched around one guy. Probably the instructor, but coulda been the resident "been there/done that" guy.

    I got to thinking that during their break times, they stand there with their Cokes and Red Bulls, watching the trucks on I-40, saying to each other, "We'll be out there soon, too!"

    "Makin' the STOOPID money!"
    "Gimmee MILES, yo!"
    "I'm only driving for a place that has those BIG Peterbilts, with lots of chrome!"
    "I'm stayin' out for SIX MONTHS, then takin' the rest of the year off!"

    I pondered this as I drove on.

    Then I wept.



    "Coffee break's over, back on my head"....

    Someone dropped a "WRIGHT'S BACON" trailer at this truckstop.

    Ever notice you never seem to have converter dolly when you need one?

    You forgot...

    "I'm gonna do 11 hour days with my trainer so I can get out there making miles."

    Instead of trying to learn something.

    So The OM has tossed Holly and Pirate Kitty out.

    Holly is like," Let's be reasonable."

    And The OM is like," The time for that is past."
