    IDK, the well known ones like to tear stuff up in the truck stops, even the fuel island. The no name ones like to torpedo into stuff while driving.

    The well known ones tear alot of stuff up, but they don't seem to kill as many.

    Is that a fair comparison? Probably not, the megas aren't the majority.

    Never mind.

    I'm sorry Dave. You live in Arizona. Kind of a long stretch to Alabama.
    A trucker would make the ideal husband. He is gone a lot so he doesn't make you crazy then he comes home ready for fun with a fat wallet. Works for me.

    Mmmm, that lady I'm referring to has probably never eaten a corn dog in her life.

    Honestly I don't know how that relationship would or could develop. I've spent the last almost 5 years driving and taking care of Dad until he passed, and there wasn't much time for anything else.

    And now I'm pretty much just a modern day trucking road savage.
