    Got married at 19 did the whole family thing got an adult daughter with two kids wife of 29 years objected to me going into truck driving, went to CDL school got my first truck driving job went out for the first time for 2 1/2 weeks brand new into the industry came home and the locks on the front door were changed. Lol, she had another man and I was on my way to being divorced and single and while it has its ups and downs, I do not mind being single at all. I do what I want, when I want, and spend my money on myself. Of course the paid off house that I had then got left to the ex-wife. Don’t ask me how that works. so I started over at 49 years old.

    OK, who dafug spends $300-$400 a WEEK on groceries??? And $500/month on electricity? What are you doing? Turning the heat up to 72° and the A/C down to 68° and letting them fight it out to see which wins??

    Yes; the next time you see a trooper up ahead, crack open a brewski, and salute old smoky with it as you pass him!!

    Somehow, I doubt even the Cholos want him around...

    I think it’s pronounced “hay-Zeus”. If this is the second coming of Jesus tho I’ll just cut my losses and go to Hell; sounds like it’ll be a lot less annoying.
