    And now after all the information on "those trucks", everyone should understand why the term steering wheel holder is used.

    QC has had issues for two days. I remember during my commercial broadcast days, there were two times yearly when we would have to deal with "sunspots" that would interfere with various satellite transmissions. Don't know if that's what is happening now, but the timing sure is similar. I have a half-dozen messages still queued up to be sent from four hours ago...same thing yesterday. Had no trouble getting messages overnight or this morning.

    Ah, the good 'ol days. It could be worse. At least you're not standing at a pay phone with a roll of dimes.

    Summabatch. There are 31 days in this month. It is friday and I don't deliver until Monday.
    I kinda busted my hump to do 557 with all kinds of 15 minute stops.
    Now 300 or so for the next two days.

    Prescott, AR at x44 Truck Stop. Guess I'll have a sitdown breakfast in the am.

    On my was to SC going down I-81

    If you thought you saw me on the side of the road in VA
    you probably did. Some yahoo from NY pulling a u-hual tried to shove me off the road and side swiped my truck in the process. I was on the air horn load as can be and had half my rig on the shoulder trying to avoid it but he came over anyways. He admitted fault to me my student and the officer.

    so a new bolts for me wheel a new rim a new side skit and new bumper and I will be back to normal.
    I was thinking a bumper kinda like this might be cheaper then the factory.
