    Just make sure you take the spinner off the steering wheel before you go into Washington state. It's a pretty hefty fine up there to have one attached.

    OMG...at the Pilot saturday...Some dude was behind me in line. Fat slob with some similar looking lady. Neither had showered since <?>...

    He had on as close to flip flops as you could get. As I looked down, I swear he had CORN CHIPS for toe nails...

    I think he was eligible for a free shower. If so, I hope HE or SHE used it.

    :biggrin_2556:

    ..at least I think MY thread on gloves made somewhat more sense than driving in flip flops. I dont even like driving in sneakers but I cant find a pair of boots I like (in my size)...

    Perfect!!!! You know a lot of guys probably read that, looked in a mirror and went "CRAP, their talking about me!" Pretty sad when your in a truck stop, warehouse or even a steel mill and being clean shaven, well dressed and not smell like an anchovy makes you feel out of place. :biggrin_2559:
