    Only took once. Don't even remember which thread, but his response to my helpful answer left me in WTF?!? mode. He always makes me see Andy asking the Warden: "Why are you being obtuse?"

    I wish the lady in that yellow car could know how big of an impact she would have on so many lives. She is a hero and doesn’t even know it.

    Isn't asking trucking related questions the purpose of this message board?

    Anyone who thinks I am irritating can just put me on ignore. If someone makes a sarcastic comment or makes a joke about my posts, I will usually first tell them that sarcastic posts degrade the quality of the message board. Then I will put them on ignore. I am far too intelligent to keep reading the posts and responding to people that I find to be irritating.

    I come to this message board to learn about trucking, and I make no apologies for it!

    Took me a minute to find it, but it was this post right here that pushed me over the edge. LOL

    Please understand I am not trying to pick on you with this question but in order to possibly help you better it might benefit us to know exactly what you are proficient with, that makes you consider yourself “far too intelligent”.
    Example I have a friend that is a mathematician and a friend that is an English professor and to explain things out of thier norm, I would have to explain the same thing two different ways or one would always be lost.

    I don’t find you irritating, I find your posts hilarious. And as far as the “far to intelligent” part, well, I’m waiting with the rest of the guys to see where your area of expertise lies
