    4 miles...

    I'm still icing my elbow and knee from calling so many strikes over last...uh...yeah weekend.

    Holding that stupid pedal down ain't good for the meniscus. Think it might be time for another snip. Don't feel like doing a 6 month rehab doing a sew together.

    Someone mentioned earlier that it's part of a road side inspection, not so sure about it but the officer isn't panicking and they aren't going that fast. They also don't use the driver side door generally for traffic stops, so I don't think it's as sinister as it looks.

    So progressive said I went 90 miles in 15 minutes today.

    Think their port tracker is a little jacked up.

    0 hard brakes so far.

    Thing I like about progressive is they didn't count that time I clipped someone's fender in newnan when I first started driving.

    Communication is great with the live chat.

    Would it be too much to ask for this with truck drivers?
    Beep beep.

    Salutations !!!
    Blah blah blah bla blah.

    Ahhhh it just ain't the same!!!

    However.... Those squirrel sounding night girls...ahhhh... Bliss.

    They still working there?

    You plug a snapshot into the port underneath the steering column ish.

    Progressive tracks your time miles driven and hard brakes. A hard brake is more than 7mph per second under their definition.

    I was just saying it would be nice to have a live chatroom in which dispatchers and the like can carry on an actual conversation. Leave the phone for emergencies.

    Joplin likes to hire ppl that sound the same. There was this girl that sounded like a squirrel that worked nights Sara I think it was. They hired another one two or three months later. Think you had already bolted by then.

    Yes sir, I run 4 miles, two times a day, at least 3 days a week. I generally run it fairly well. I had to start back out slowly after I left OTR. Now, I am back to where I need to be health wise before I went OTR. Nothing wrong with being OTR, because you have to do your time in on the road, and I know that. Personally, I am where I want to be as far as my truck driving career. I will always admire the OTR drivers, because I have been in your shoes. It's been well worth the experience of traveling, which I have done a lot of that. The main purpose of me coming off of the road was to better my health most importantly, but also be here for my family more.
