    Well I found a flat on my trailer. Must have happened on 40 last night, I straddled an alligator Must have clipped it. Right rear inside tire. Outside bead was broken. Got it sealed with ether. Can’t get lock off toolbox. No air anywhere. Hose, pb blaster, tools, everything’s in the tool box. No air at the loves, No air hoses fir sale. No WD or PB either. All 3 hoses on fuel islands are broken. Tried a mix of diesel fuel/ power service. No luck. Hose and 1/4” grinder are in toolbox. Lol. Trying to borrow an air hose. No Luck so far.

    I’ve already cut 3 of them off. Lol. 1:4” grinder and cutting wheels were locked in the box. I’m done with those so called good locks. I sprayed some goo gone in it, came right open. Got it off. Lol. Sprayed it some more, it seized up and finally started working right. Gonna leave it off. Tires holding air. Ran flat, hopefully it won’t blow. I’m light, should be fine. Found a nail in a Drive, right on the edge. Gonna leave it in for now, till I get to a tire shop. Not leaking yet. Looking for a third tire problem. Haven’t found it yet. I Guarantee it’s somewhere. Tires always happen in threes for me. Main thing is I won’t get OOS for flat tire.

    You dare blaspheme the lukewarm PFJ pizza? How dare you. I bet you like roller dogs.

    You Guys Worry Me. It’s not right I say, just not right.

    I can't remember having more than 3 tire problems in all my years working for other people. Now it seems I have at least 1 a week.

    Not normally, but they do beat the pizza. Had my first truckstop chili cheese jalapeño dogs in years today. Think they were the ones left on the rollers since the last time.

    I’ve only ever had 1 roller dog in my 3 years out here. It was a jalapeno cheddar dog from Love’s lol.
