    Brings back too many pictures of the Lizzards thathave knocked on my door over the years and yes I want to up-chuck... No picture needed... Now the best one was one night downin Hammond, La # Petro I was eating breakfast, in the early morning while talking to GF on phone... this swamp woman was trying to pick me up to take me home to her shack in the swamp... My GF asked me why I was grawling? I told her ths woman was trying to pick me up... she Laughed.. I moved down a couple of seats, she slides down still yacking the whole time, I just wanted to eat and then get down the road... I got up and left before I finished my breakfast... to this day I can still see that thing... (shivers runing up my spine and skin is creeping away) justt thinking about it makes me sick...:biggrin_2551::biggrin_2551:

    That's just too FLIPPIN' funny. I was at that Ambest t/s in Lincoln, NE last night, w/ mentor. We JUST turned off the engine after parking, and we get a knock. Some guy was asking if we were going to Council Bluff. My mentor just told him no. He walked away. The 45 minutes later after getting some food, making a phone call, and watching some tv, I come out going to the truck and he askes me if I was the Swift driver. I acted insulted and said no, lol. My first expirence with t/s riff raff.

    Yep and it won't be your last... I have found that it is easier to be nice, but not to friendly to get rid of them, than be mean. Less is more...The fewer words spoken to the rif-raf the better off you will be and the less trouble you will have for the most part.

    Just a civil "no thanks, I'm not interested," has seemed to work for me, with the lizards. And a civil "sorry, can't help you," has seemed to work with the beggars.

    However there have been several times that I have given beggars food out of my truck. Ones that really seemed to appreciate it. But NEVER money, under any circumstance.

    WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO DO THAT??? :biggrin_2551:

    I mean really! I would think you would have more respect for your tire knocker than to treat it that way!:biggrin_25525:
