    Get up you slacker! It is morning already! Grin
    I couldnt get to sleep. So I am up for a bit. Need to send a thankyou email to a customer. Thanking her for the payment. Tomorrow I need to call and find some one to work on the furnace that had never failed to light (oil hot water). If it werent for my gut I would fix it. Alas this gut makes it hard to fold over and get to stuff that is below my knees.
    I have to call Harvard Pilgrim and explain it to them that the motorcycle accident they are trying to pin on me is false. I have never lived in Kentucky and if I had claimed it, why the heck arent there more bills from it? (they are trying to stick me with a ambulance bill for some one named Mr. Williamson) How they get Willy first name is whatever. sigh. Good night once again

    Same with my line of work. When dudes get burnt out on chucking cases it's cokes fault lol. You knew (or should have known) what the job was. The other ##### a lot of guys have are the old trucks and trailers...yet again....local work is generally known to have ancient equipment. It's too much work and the trucks suck....that's why you get paid what you get paid lol.

    I'm near Dallas. I think we are going to have a hard freeze. I have been in NOLA and Houston/Texas most of the summer and fall. It's 66 out now, there must be a freeze warning.

    I looked at trucking once upon a time as a great deal of fun. Children play with rusted tonka trucks their parents cast off 50 years ago. We run the real thing. Those are fun.

    (*Sottovoce... until they quit being as fun....)

    If you enjoy what you do in life, you will never work a day in it. So goes the theory.

    I do mourn one thing. It seems that anything I try to do in this business and get away with something is slowly being legislated out of existence.

    Here is the live map of the USA by county weather issues updated every 6 minutes.

    I think if I follow Seattle right, there is a new storm coming ashore in a day or so.
