Any Old Farts in here?

Just a note...personal insults aren't allowed here. You've had good advice from some drivers who really know what they're talking about. Ignore the ones you don't like.

 

And just for the record, I'm almost 75. My diet consists mainly of venison and coffee. And ice cream. If I go to town I always get ice cream.

 

it's funny I used to laugh at the fat old truck driver now iam the old fat truck driver

 

Nothing wrong with that. I found it odd the OP acted like a 71 year old trucker for the first half of his post, and a twenty year old woke college kid the second half.

 

I hauled explosives for twelve years before I started this business.

 

Well we got the suicide jockey, where are the 11 friends of Jesus in the micro bus?

 

70 years old , and needs advice on what to eat. If you are that old, you can eat any thing you want.

 

Hey, you're the one upset "some people acting like old hands when they been in this a year."

I've made it awfully known many many times I'm new to this game. Never once pretended I wasn't. But I've also been around this stuff my whole life, and I wasn't born yesterday.

Anyways, you shouldn't get so worried about me. I appreciate it though.

 

It was just 1.4 stuff, nothing crazy. Shaped charges, perforating guns, dets, ignitors, power charges, etc. A mix of primary and secondary.

I've seen things happen to those guns that is crazy, but they never went off. HMX and RDX is super insensitive to impact. The rest is boxed up so it would take a helluva crash to set anything off.

 

See, that's the thing right there. Why in God's name would you be impressed? I'm doing the same job as everyone else. I don't stand out. I'm about as average as it gets. Better than some, worse than most. Not trying to impress anyone. I'd be more surprised if you were impressed.
