    Yeah we really like living up here. I still have a couple weeks left at the old job. I didn’t want to just straight tell them to suck it.

    Was talking to a guy that owned his own business, did well financially, took in a woman and her 3 kids. This heifer hasn’t worked in 2 years and she’s mouthing at him telling him that ‘he ain’t schat.’

    He asked me what should he do.

    Sir, did you know that you are in an abusive relationship?

    It was like a slap to the face.

    Unfortunately it is.

    I like a good looking large car as much as anyone, but I believe the issue the two of you hit on comes from the attitude of the driver.

    I had one running his mouth on the CB at me the other day to “get my dumb ### out of his way” due to the unimaginable crime of only driving a mere 7 mph over the speed limit in the left lane while passing a few trucks who were going about 10 mph less.

    I gotta say I kinda miss the ol days, but I get around better by myself less likely to trash around when ain't no one to trash with. We were good at working together it wasn't a big thing for Horsefly, Nubbin, Big Cheif or No Name to take my truck and do what I had to do and me get theirs back running and light out doing what they were doing and meet up out there somewhere and trade back. It never occurred to each other we weren't on the others drug consortium or insurance.

    We done what we had to do to get by. Money was thin with 3 kids and my wife in college. That didn't mean I couldn't help a good friend that was just scraping by too.
    We wouldn't have made it without Toes and One Step. They didn't run as hard as I did but they were consistent. You didn't need to let them two ol geezers fool ya. They could still load out of West Plains in the afternoon and unload in the Texas border country early the next morning. I'm proud to have been a part of it. Me and Nubbin are the only 2 left. He doesn't drive anymore. I'm just thankful to still be doin what I do with what I have to do it with.

    That I gotta agree with, the attitude of the fella in the large car has changed as a rule too. So many racking their pipes off in the parking lot bein idiot's. Makes me wonder if it's their first week in a nice unit. Goes back to the age old saying dont judge a book by the cover
