    impressive, you sound more like a trainer than someone who needs to call one

    you may have heard about the guy with the chickens in Banning . . . not to pick on this poor soul but your post reminded me of this recent hilarious thread:

    stuck at a scale over weight

    NCMickey, be careful with that truck stop in Cuba, Mo. PackRat got his fuel stolen from there a week ago.

    Good job though on going back to Pepsi and having them make it right.

    Skeered me too, in fact he skeered me so bad I had to go see a therapist..... the therapist looked up ol Pete's profile, then informed me I had nothing to be skeered of, the therapist said that ol Pete has a big ol heart under all that gruffness...[emoji2]

    About to catch some day sleep at the Hammond LA Petro, then off tonight for a sunrise delivery somewhere just west of Columbia SC. Since everyone likes pictures, here's one of not a traffic jam on the Atchafalaya Basin bridge just at the crack of dawn around 0500. A little blurry due to the absence of solar enhancement. Plenty of parking at the Petro too!

    ;)
