    .........girlfriend gone for the weekend so I was cleaning my house, in Tallahassee, Florida. I ran across a book. I started driving otr in 1999. I was at the truckstop in Wildwood,Florida. I asked an owner operator if he needed help. He was having truck problems.He asked me my name and pulled out a pen and wrote something. He then handed me an autographed book he wrote,which had written by a trucker on it. The book was called "The Icon Cowboy" presents volume II Political Promenade. I thought that was pretty cool. I wonder how he's doing.

    I'm curious what happened to him. How long ago did you meet him? Did he sign your book, too?

    That was a very good read. I would think one would have a lot of time to write while out on the road. I read that many drivers are waiting several hours to get loaded. It would seem an ideal time to put your pen to the page.....:yes2557:

    I met him at a truckstop just east of sait louis in about 1998 or 99. used to have a e-mail for him but can't find it. might try the people who published the book, or the printers.
