    Because bikini-clad nuns only pick on Swift drivers. You're running for the wrong company.

    That never happened to me at Swift. Or maybe it did... at 60, they could've gone by too quick for me to notice.

    Hahaha,,,I'll be sure to mount a "Dash-Cam" to capture the images of beautiful bikini chicks! Or I could just order a copy of Girls Gone Wild. hahaha

    I've got my bags mostly packed. After reading so much from this site, I've learned a few things. Rather than one huge bag, I thought I would carry two. One will have clothes only,,,and those clothes which I don't expect to need very often. The other bag will have most of the stuff I intend to need more often. This way I won't be irritating my mentor too soon! We can stow the "seldom needed" bag in a side box or something. At least that's my hope.

    I also recommended to my recruiter that he tell his new contacts about this site. I thought I was lucky to find this forum so early on.

    I get on the bus tomorrow night at 10 PM headed for Memphis. That gives me just enough time to get in some "Lovin" with the Warden (My wife) before I go. I don't know how I'm going to make it through all this training without some "relief"! It's gonna be torture! Perhaps I'd better bring that GGW DVD with me! hahahaha

    I'm also leaving the laptop here for now. My mentor probably won't have much room in the cab of his/her truck, I won't want to lose it, and I'm sure I'll have plenty to keep me occupied while on the road during training. I am taking my smart phone so I hope to read/post to this forum occassionally.

    Here's to lots of miles and friends!

    If his Mrs is reading these posts she probably wouldn't want him giving out details or posting pictures. I'm just sayin'...... Good luck Phatdaddy and be safe out there. Oh and don't be surprised to find out that one thing you need is in that extra bag in the sidebox! And while I am at it your wife doesn't have to stay in The Ladies Room forum. We are out here everywhere. Have her pop in and say hey. She may need some reassurance you aren't chasing bikini clad nuns and farmer's daughters down the back roads. Men!!!!
