    Except everybody has a video camera these days and loves telling on anybody that does anything they percieve to be wrong. lol

    I loaded and drove the distributor truck home one night late. Home for about 6 months, when I first got married was an apartment, anyway I get in thee about midnight with the plan of leaving about 4 am. I had never driven it before and didn't know it leaked like it did, I got out thee and was walking in oil 50 feet before I got to the truck. lol It was dark and no one around so I left out, when I came back that night, thee was emulsion tracks going every direction. lol

    Maybe if you nasty fools didn't dump your piss jugs in the parking lots, maybe it wouldn't smell like urine.

    I could tell stories about some of the nasty females out here, too. Dont think your half of the species is better just because you have 'indoor plumbing'.

    I was here its not a tanker spill it was an older 90s volvo truck pulling a dry van(not dry anymore lol) they told all of us to leave the lot and those who had no time on their clocks were given a card to the police station and told to tell any dot officer that pulled you over to call the police station to verify. I was actually here getting my truck fixed while all of this was happening. They had a hard time getting a hold of the driver as he was in a reserved spot. After awhile police got info from the reserved parking spot and called the driver to come back. The trailer was leaking from the back(slow leak) of course enough to shut down the parking lot. Finding parking after all that was a disaster lol. Well time for me to go to bed. Stay safe out there guys!
