    I heard of these guys when I was traveling around Europe. They're pretty big fans of Tolkien's work.

    Blind Guardian Official Website

    Nightfall in Middle Earth is the album you'd probably like.
     
    Gamgee Thanks this.

    No fair. @loudtom That is an awesome concert clip. Wish there were more.
    I checked out more in the genre. Someone at a former employ turned me on to Nightwish. Not my thing but, none-the-less nice to meet another craftsman working in the dark mines who knows it's not all about the big guys.
    Yes. Middle-earth lives on in the hearts and minds of many.
    It is a great story. Many go to war and, I couldn't even begin to imagine what Tolkien or others experienced. But I am thankful that they tried to share in words what it meant to them.
    Thanks again for sharing. Maybe if I can, I will catch that concert.
    I do not speak Elvish but,
    My heart is glad.

    They might not know what an engine or tire looks like, so they think mechanic classes are required.

    They'll learn what they need to know during "pre-trip inspection classes" in cdl school.
    It disrupts the class when a student complains; "That's not what I was told in mechanic school."
     
    Gamgee and BigDog Trucker Thank this.

    I dont understand why everyone thinks truck driving school is so hard. There are guys who can barely tie their shoes running a semi down the road. These schools are made to teach someone the basics and pass the tests. This isnt college, they aren't there to flunk you, unless you're functionally retarded.
