    I got exciting news this morning. It looks like my job search is fruitful. My recruiter let me know everything looks good and I only have a couple hoops to jump through. Hopefully I can get to orientation next week.

    I’ve got some stuff to sort out as well to get ready, including returning my beloved Western Express International Prostar. I’ve read so much bad stuff about those trucks, and mine has been an absolute gem. Couple minor issues; radiator hose blew, and one of the high pressure hose clamps on the turbo popped off. Other than that it’s been a fantastic and reliable truck. I’m actually concerned they’re going to give it to some savage. It would break my heart to see what that thing looks like in a month. I almost feel like I’m returning a loved dog to the pound because I’m moving...

    I do appreciate those of you who’ve asked me for updates and I apologize for ignoring you, but when it’s finalized I’m off to grab my first load I’ll post about ASAP.

    Oh but not so fast sir... there are many who would argue otherwise. Such as the following which appeared in the ever popular and trusted publication Time Magazine which I regret I cannot provide the issue nor when it was published, but in the interest of fairness to the debate I offer the following quote as reinforcement that they (the Reptilians) are thriving in modern day socieity.

    Quote] They are among us. Blood-drinking, flesh-eating, shape-shifting extraterrestrial reptilian humanoids with only one objective in their cold-blooded little heads: to enslave the human race. They are our leaders, our corporate executives, our beloved Oscar-winning actors and Grammy-winning singers, and they're responsible for the Holocaust, the Oklahoma City bombings and the 9/11 attacks ... at least according to former BBC sports reporter David Icke, who became the poster human for the theory in 1998 after publishing his first book, The Biggest Secret, which contained interviews with two Brits who claimed members of the royal family are nothing more than reptiles with crowns. END QUOTE

    Giving up a good truck is a very hard thing to do and I empathize with your concern about the lack of care by the next driver.... been there - done that:(

    Well there’s your problem. It’s not a cinnamon and brown sugar one. No amount of jam will fix that.

    :D
