    As a young, buff serviceman, I carried protection.

    Not so much these days, but the little snippity-snip protects me now.

    Try pulling into a truck stop with a 6 ft pond ditch full of snow that looked like the parking lot i went to the bottom of that ditch , after fighting a blizzard thru Montana , Wyoming , North Dakota.
    94 was closed at Casselton Nd were i went into the pond , didn't wreck anything but the bad part of this was the 80 people looking out the windows at me due to the road closure , i got a round of applause when i walked in.
    Why do we do this for a living.
