    What a coincidence, I just noticed my bunk filter looks nasty. Real bad. Outside filters got to be terrible also. Needs a inside cabin filter. Going to start with one on the recirculating vent. Maybe eventually put one between fan and coils. If its possible. Old Freightliners are the dusties Trucks. Never liked the air intake in passenger cowl, right above the smoking blow by tube. Bad combination. Further study is needed.

    Surprise Surprise Surprise!! Took 5 Phone calls and 2 stops to get it fixed. Bought a tire at Petro, and got it put on at Loves. Everywhere was 3-8 hr. Wait. Too busy standing around smoking cigarettes to do any work. Tried to get Drives retorqued while at TA. They said since it’s been over 100 miles, they’d have to charge Me. Guess I’ll have it done by Loves, when I get this one retorqued. Seriously thinking about making a complaint to TA. The 50-100 rule is not very practical. Not about safety, only Liability. The whole thing has gotten rediculous. Put them on tight enough, and they won’t come off. I don’t care what the experts say.

    "Incompetents" is plural.

    "Incompetent's" is possessive.

    "A pair of incompetents parked all wonky and blocked me in at the truck stop, so I pulled the pin on both incompetent's fifth wheels".

    I believe the TinMan was a reference to Taxpayer ID No. (TIN) because "corporations are people" but like the Tin Man have no heart. Not trying to make a political statement so much as share what I'veccome to believe.

    That was in reference to LTD's comment:

    Stopped making it.
    Stop hoping it will be available.
    stop thinkiing this is only a phase due to drivers.

    Stop hoping coca-cola will have a heart.

    Not sure if he meant same.

    Obviously the Federal Reserve chair is the public face of the Wizard of Oz.

    The Wizard of Oz used to come on TV once a year, not sure that is the case anymore.

    I digress. Maybe someone will find this information remotely interesting.

    That’s why I order different, lots of onions and extra mustard.
    Then I get someone else’s food, they take mine...
