    Made the mistake of watching that the day before I went to the hills alone to get firewood... It was a very creepy day, and I kept the chainsaw very close at hand.

    And a roll of butt wipe in case a grouse flies up unannounced — not that I would know about such things

    I could never watch that movie....:biggrin_25512: the sound of it scares me.... Bought the book but couldn't read even 1/4 of it... and also bought the vinyl record with movie songs but ended up giving it away.... :biggrin_2552:

    It's funny you say that because I am having the same symptoms, I'm kind of on edge but that might just be because it's windy and my kite is light so it's blowing all over the road (at least in my mind it is lol) and I am really, really tired. I'll end up with like 525ish miles by the time I get done and I can't ####ing wait, I am exhausted. That's actually why I'm typing in here, I stopped to do some push-ups on a gas station parking lot to try to get the blood flowing. I guess it's whatever you are used to lol.

    And I take my hat off to those local drivers that do multiple stops in the city, fighting city traffic everyday.... :confused: lots of backings at tight places, with lots of other vehicles and pedestrians and all.... :biggrin_25521: Much respect for those folks... :yes2557:

    Thank you sir. I deliver in beautiful gridlocked downtown Tampa FL. I probably put more miles on the truck in reverse once I get out to the city. I normally only do about 100-150 miles a day but do about 200 with a pallet jack lol. They are letting me try a linehaul a few days a week now because I asked nicely. It's kicking my ###, I'm not used to driving this much and it's actually making me more tired then chucking cases of soda out of a sideloader all day. I like it tho, kinda neat thinking I'm almost in Georgia and I started in Tampa.
