    So this is my plan so far...
    1. Pass practice drug test for weed
    2. Hide that I’m Californian Democrat
    3. Apply for my CLP
    4. Order my (3) sets of adidas flip flops and warm up suits.
    5. CDL school. (Local school - Pay for it myself)
    6. Receive my license with all endorsements.
    7. Become a company driver - spend 6 months training and driving to gain experience.
    8. Choose a model of truck to buy. 2016-7. Volvo or Pete.
    9. Buy it and begin a complete update and diagnostic on it. I’m the mechanic during my days home. So that’s like what 4 days over 4 months?
    10. Finish last 6 months with carrier as company driver.
    11. TEXA software and laptop. Begin outfitting truck. Finish replace, refresh, and renew of truck
    12. Spare parts, sensors, and go box ready. Mount surf racks to cab.
    13. Perfect my Slav squat and Cholo squat for on the road fitness.
    14. Decide based on experience between refer, flatbed, or dry van.
    15. 6 hours soul search at a strip club with free “business men’s lunch” to make decision.
    16. Lap dance by a crying stripper named Candy. Nothing like a crying stripper. That’s just for fun.
    17. Visit and interview 4-5 carriers I’m interested leasing on with.
    18. 12-16 months as an L/O.
    19. Begin paperwork to be an O/O running Western 11. I pretty much believe there is no life east of the I-15.
    20. When my son goes to college take my wife on the road.
    21. Close exclusive contract with Warren Buffet, or cultivate some contracts for expensive freight.
    22. Drive 75,000 per year or so.
    23. Do this for 10 years.
    24. Michele Obama gets elected President and she hires me to run the DOT.
    25. I overhaul the agency and I singlehanded reinvent HOS and chicken coops. Everyone cheers. Truck drivers are treated like Pro athletes. Pay doesn’t change.
    26. Diesel drops to $1.00 a gallon
    27. LOTR is my signature program (Laws of the Road). 4 wheelers finally learn to drive around trucks.
    28. Retire and still deliver freight when it’s sounds fun.
    29. Win Nobel peace prize for my efforts.
    30. Get abducted by aliens that look like “dusk to dawn” Salma Hayek or young Jennifer Anniston. Live out my life banging.

    And your whole plan hinges on "Michele Obama gets elected President" in 10 or 15 years?

    It just might work, in the Twilight Zone.
