    Ugh... Never again will I drink pop.

    I had one today, saw an old flavor I thought was discontinued.

    Oh god... My stomach #####ed at me all 200 miles home. And then once again as I got caught in that jack-knife off i285 in Atlanta. Though I'll leave the details out of that... (The stomach issue.). Feeling better at least and I'll know full-well to behave.

    I still like sprite and ginger ale though. So that's good.

    I'll see if I can't find the news story on the crash, I don't know if anyone was hurt but it'd amaze me if not.

    Parked, safely, in forest park awaiting my turn to leave out for ridgeland, ms at the end of my 10. Easy run if there ever was one.

    I'm looking for that story and then bedding down after some food. For a guy that's been sick to my stomach all day...you'd think I'd lose my appetite... Guess not.
     
    Rocks and chopper103in Thank this.

    Yeah. The Atlanta 500 was generally fraught with yellow and red flags.

    I'm at least temporarily a Hazmat driver again.
    Passed the test with 26/30 correct.

    My AC compressor clutch has had it. He says we need a compressor and a dryer.
    Ain't gonna be cheap.

    While at the office we were talking about cargo nets. I could have used one. I got two properly strapped pallets of metal cans with another bundle shrink wrapped on top of one.
    2 cans got away on 225 somewhere.
    I got up there and taped and taped.
    Went to the wrong gate at the plant.
    Between there and where I was supposed to be 2 more escaped. With windows down you'd think I might hear them leave. Nope.

    Sent empty at 3:15. Been quiet.
    I'm at the corner of 146 and I-10.
    Reckon pretty soon I'll go on up 146 towards home.
     
    Rocks Thanks this.
