    It seems we all take it for granted when we park somewhere and out slithers a coward to rob someone.I was realy lucky ONE time when i was confronted with a knife and wanted my wallet.He made a stupid look over behind himself to see if anyone would witness and BAM he was done flat out by me and i called the police to report and charged him.I went to the hospital to find out i had a cracked finger over it.I was lucky that night like i said but now what could you do when the pack guns..i rather live:yes2557:

    BumpInTheRoad your not kidding i have to agree.I have been driving with another driver as a team for three years and we both got out just to drop trailers in the yard late at night and do our pre-inspections before leaving for another load..just covering each other to be safe..there are a lot of drivers out there driving solo and its hard to look and listen around running reefers etc.We both end up quiting and moved to a different living but i sure miss driving..be safe out there and take care

    Northern Flight,

    Good for you!! I hope you used your tire thumper on him a bit before the police got there. Sorry about your hand but I bet that scumbag will think twice before he screws with another trucker. Thanks from all of us!!!

    :occasion5:[/quote]Thanks Gatormaster but i was scared that night at the start and then i got pissed off after a few minutes of his BS..i wished i had used my tire thumper but had to do the old school of bare knuckel and boots.Dont worry he was hurt realy bad and i just had a gut feeling he was going to hurt me and leave me for dead. I have a wife and kids and i just had a lucky shot at him so i can see my family once again

    I came out of Texas for NE with a load of cattle and it started to rain in OKC. I got N of town and stopped at the Pickle Park and checked my tires and it started raining harder. I decided the place was totally empty I'd run in and pee and when I went in the door some slimy fatboy, with greasy hair, ran right into me and said, " Want a blow job?" My first reaction was, "Do I look like a queer?" but I must have to him or he wouldnt have asked me. I had my tire billy, made out of a 2' 6" steel rod with threads on 1 end and I ran him down the hill into the bushes in the dark and rain. I was out for blood but he escaped. Was'nt funny at the time but now it is.:biggrin_25514:
