Your first run in with a "creature from the night"

When I was at the Bordentown Petro a couple weeks ago riding with my friend we had one come up to us right at the back door by the basketball courts. We were sitting on the bench there. And boy was she nasty. Even for a guy named DirtyBob.

My friend and another trucker who have both spent about 15 years driving to different places in NJ said she was the ugliest and nastiest they'd ever seen. It almost makes me proud that I may have seen the ugliest lot lizard in NJ history!

What's funny is not 5 minutes before that my friend explained to me what "Do you want some company?" means when he was telling me how bad they used to be there. Otherwise who knows what sort of predicament I would of found myself in lol.

Luckily we kept at least a 7 foot distance which is my general rule in avoiding possible contamination from a biological weapon.

 

omgoshh I know where this place is an it is very gross. Since campbell wont let us stay at their place. one came at my truck an told them to leave an won't.. Well I do know they HATE the air horn an I have no trouble using it.. Even at the Pilot in Dallas TX was just as bad also.

 

My experiences are that I usually find what I'm looking for. When I started trucking 37 years ago at the tender but horny age of 16 it seemed that every truck I drove was programmed to stop at any place there mighta been possibility of a lot lizard's presence. This went on for about 10 years. Then they invented things that you can't wash off with Ajax... and I maybe grew up a little too. Been driving on and off since and no matter where I go, even Ontario west, no one - and I mean no one ever knocks on my door. Then again, maybe it's because of my 70 lb mean lookin'
ugly dog......

 

I've seen many many of them over the years. The truck I used to drive looked like a big shiny Chicken Hauler. They came running at me as soon as I entered certain areas. I have seen all shapes and sizes as well. From the wrinkled old skaggs with no teeth to some that looked no more than 15 or 16 and very good looking. Always breaks my heart the youngsters do. I usually gave them a 20 and told them to get home fast. The Old dogs I just shake my head and then ignore. I get down right mean to pan handlers and scammers I usually scowl at them like I am about to take their head off. The youngsters though always hurt to see and I never beleived they were ###### so I answered their knock thinking they were stranded or something.

 

Oh and you should always be careful about getting set up. And also careful about getting out of the truck at night to take a leak or whatever. I have seen or heard of more than a few drivers getting mugged and beaten by people hiding outside their trucks.

 

I have a little T handle screw driver I keep in my back pocket for such instances with a phillips head tip in it,

I punch some one with that thing its gonna slow em down in a big hurry.

This is also why having lots of lights on your truck is a good idea, when you can remove the shadows it is a lot easier to see what is going on.

 

so i finally found an excuse to tell my woman about those high price chicken lights.....thanks beast

 

Any time!!!
