    Well got to meet Rocks (she's just as nice in person as on here) for just a few min. Had planned on being able to stay longer but got side tracked at the house so was 2hrs behind schedule.

    Almost cut off a motorcycle doing about 120mph. Was changing back to the right lane after the truck I was passing took the off ramp and I start over and realize the bike is coming up way to fast so back to left let he by slide to the right to get out of the unmarked with his lights going. In less than a min both where so far ahead could not even see lights no more.

    Greencastle Pa. Only 3 drops on this un! 2 in Carlisle, then final in Milton. And THEN prolly gas it back south. Or at least that's what'll prolly happen. What's the deal with the Gilligans Island references? Ginger was smoking hot!

    I always was more of a Mary Ann fan.

    The hotel TruckDuo was in lost electricity last night. Then Ms rocks said no this, no that, no the other thing. My ADD brain instantly started hearing the opening song of Gilligan's Island.

    That's the deal.

    Something tells me the cop didn't catch that motorcycle. I will also not admit how I know that. And no, that one wasn't me. Besides being a few states away at the time, I sold my really fast bike. The old Z1 I still have is only good for 130 with the fairing on it. Allegedly. ;)

    Speaking of a/c problems, @PackRatTDI gets a gold star and an attaboy. He may have correctly guessed low refrigerant on mine. Last weekend at the Des Moines Love's, I hooked the can up again anyway and managed to squeeze a few more ounces in with the compressor relay shorted to run. The next day running from AR to OK, it iced up in under an hour just like before. While getting loaded, that dim light bulb came on, and I thought WTH why not stick the relay back in and see what happens after all that tampering? Worked fine all the way home.

    I'm still getting a wiring diagram from KW when I get around to it. The system pressure was high enough that it should have at least been cycling before. I've serviced 100s of a/c systems and never seen one just not turn on at all with that much pressure still in the system.

    I'm in greencastle too.....rolled in here 2300 last night but too worn out to even drag out the laptop after dealing with what traffic was yesterday on the way up.

    soon as I reset yesterday the cube farm called with a hot load that had to get to leepsort by last night. now I'm deadheading back to the home DC.......after I get awake enough to and get out here and clean my windshield. I don't know what type of insect I ran through last night but a massive swarm of them decided to commit mass suicide on my windshield.
