    I like the "I was driving across 40 in New Mexico, and was abducted by aliens in a UFO, and the performed sexual tests on me with a anal probe" stories... Very entertaining to say the leasst

    We used to have it on at night when we would milk. Spent alot of nights listening to one of the guest hosts discuss a claw they pulled out of his *** after the Vegas UFO convention.

    My first thought was wonder how many of the local hostess' at the pony ranch got treated for" claws"

    This rumor's been floating around for the whole time I've been driving, from time to time cities like LA or San Francisco talk about banning truck deliveries at night. So far common sense has ruled. But, due to a huge and exponentially increasing wave of stupidity, sooner or later the stupid people might win and start to ban trucks in a large city.

    There are small cities around Dallas and Ft Worth that have those bans, I dealt with those in the 1980's while delivering swinging meat to grocery stores. Mostly very wealthy areas.

    New York and Washington just did a "partnership" study running those cities at night. New York Transportation office has been recommending it for years.

    I'll have to dig up the link later.

    That's what drivers were complaining about when it was proposed, don't know if FMCSA is dumb enough to still pass that rule.

    Yep, too many line haul and meat haulers run 3rd shift. It'll never happen. They have enough problems adapting to the EOBR's
