    You said, "Well I jog daily while in the truck."

    So I was wondering how you can jog in the truck. Jokes aside, 10 minutes of jump rope burns more calories than 30 minutes of jogging. I carry a speed rope and a 2-lb rope on the road. I mix in 1-minute jump rope sets with pushups, planks and other easy exercises. Kind of like a tabata workout. You get a lot more bang for your buck, and you're building muscle at the same time you burn fat. Of course, it all goes for naught if you then go fill up a half-gallon trucker mug with Pepsi. I look at some of these guys guzzling down the sodas and wonder how many kidney stones they've passed or have yet to pass.

    We had a lot of fun, once, I saw'r a driver "shrink wrapped " in their cab over Astro, my 1st trucking job, another driver, his name was John, and his handle was "Short Fill", as he used to work in a brewery. Anyway, we got done with our coffee break at "The Hill", now long gone, trucks idling, no crime back then, I said, I'm going to the can, be right there. I had a Mack, he had an IH. I come out of the bathroom only to hear a Mack driving away. That dog gone Short Fill stole my truck! We were going to the same place anyway, I took his truck,,, oh yeah, reverse air lines, drain air tanks, grease on inside of door handle to the ones that stole your load, never anything that would cause harm, like pulling the pin, although I checked anyway, just a hassle. Lord knows, they did it to me.

    Considering whose name is on the side of it, it certainly should have been a fancy one.
