    Thanks I really appreciate that. That's what I keep telling myself too. Need to have some fun out here and not always be super serious.

    I remember a day where I was furious I couldn't even see straight. I sent Marco a few messages that were not so nice (Bad Idea! ! Keep Your Rage To Yourself). I was lost in downtown Atlanta, I was on streets that no trucks should ever be on, I could not reach the customer on the phone, I could not get anyone to answer me on the CB. I finally said F*** it and pulled over, popped the brakes and just sat along side the road for a minute or so. Took some deep breaths then another truck driver got on the radio finally and asked if I was ok. I asked him if he knew where this customer was. He said "yeah, right behind you, turn around, go two blocks its on your right" I felt about 2 inches tall. I was so pissed off over the whole thing. One missed turn can ruin your day driving a truck. Now that I know, that customer is VERY easy to get to but I had turned the wrong way off the interstate. With all this said, some days will test you, but every time something goes wrong like that you learn from it and its one thing checked off the list that shouldn't happen again.

    got home early and shot a quick video showing how I have to back into my driveway of my narrow road at the house. I don't know why the videos from this camera are always a little out of focus.
