    @Grubby.. ever hear of Gratiot, Ohio? Between Muskingum and Licking Counties, pop. 300. An old timer at the fuel island last night was yapping at me, calling me a 'hand' (got my hackles up but.. okay) telling me it's pronounced Grass poop. Any clue to that? I've asked Mike and Arm and nobody knows. Nope, i've never been thru that one horse town, and I'm sure not gonna go there for the 'enunciation' LoL... just wondering. Mike and the likes believe it is more French, like Gra' oah.. or something.. CLUE? OLD TIMER CALLED ME A HAND because I didn't know it was really Great Shizzzzzzzzz... insight?

    I hate being called a hand. Trucking and oilfield use that term. I have no reason just always disliked it.

    Someone calls me a foot and I’ll accept it.
