    So, Watched Devotion last night.
    It’s was Ok, but they left a bunch out, as they always do, which to me leads up to the story line, so it’s easier to follow.
    But otherwise a decent movie.


    Btw, I’ll just leave this here.
    Emissions controls killed my career as an O/O - Truck News cleaner epa27 coming up for your dirty engines?

    As a driver, one does get to meet such diverse people.. Over and over again. It was almost as if they followed you along your trip.

    And I have always felt that the logic is flawed, as a wheel on a left side spinning in a counter clock direction while facing the wheel, should in my view, be causing the wheel stud to attempt to turn "into", the wheel nut thus tightening a right hand thread. And on the right side the wheel turning in a clock ways motion goin forward, should tighten a left hand threaded stud into a nut. But what do I know, other than it is was designed as you have described?

    And the fact that most car companies don't do that anymore, to me, casts doubt on the need to do it in the first place.....

    I feel ya.

    I took 3 weeks off, and ended up 75 pages behind.

    I still have about 20 pages of backlog to finish.

    I considered a "WOOSH", but it's a point of pride for me to be able to say I've read every post, so I'm just gonna dig in and finish.

    It's hard to stay current AND clear backlog on the weekend. Everyone has so much to say.

    Yeah, socks and skivvies all need periodic replacement, and even though I have tons of t-shirts, if I'm at Rural King or TSC and I see a t-shirt that fits me I'll buy it. Sometimes they're on a clearance rack, and I can't pass up a $3 t-shirt.

    I need new boots, so I'm gonna have to will myself to go to Red Wing. Work pays for them, but I have to front the money, which I don't like to do. Especially now since the price of everything is off the hook.

    The cigarette/snuff/chew discussion was interesting.
