    I'm impressed the way many are nested on the diagonal. Not that many blown up vans for the number involved.

    Well in the ongoing process of getting Pirate Kitty accepted into the cat family, it was going pretty well this morning as she came in meowed around and ate, The OM exhibiting mild protest from her perch on the kitchen table.

    SO,

    While Pirate Kitty was eating, I kept reassuring The OM she will always be the boss. Things were going pretty well.

    Then Pirate Kitty decided to jump up on the table too...……..
    This was probably not the smartest thing Pirate Kitty could have done.

    Negotiations have put back a few squares needless to say.

    I made bacon, which The OM will kill 3 people for, this has helped the psychological and emotional trauma.

    Yup, already posted in accidents section.
    Huge Truck Pile-Up on Interstate

    LOL TOO FUNNY! Driver manager of Dead river fuels just contacted me to say their driver was at the end of the road. He sees a puddle with cars going through it and wants to have a reason to avoid delivering 160 gallons of fuel oil. I said "Did you bather to consider what you just asked me?". I could hear her screaming at the idiot newb to get their tail in gear and go fill the home with the ordered fuel. She apologized and I am still laughing about it. They dont want to hire me with 7 months driven. Yet they will hire some newb afraid of a 20 foot diameter muddy puddle that he cant drive around.

    Serealously people!

    Pretty cool... the paramotor and their experience flying over that abandoned Airforce Base.:)
    I would like to have something like that paramotor in the truck (a miniature version of that) so that I could go places during my 34 at truck stops and rest areas, etc.... :D

    Over $10k for his setup.
    Like his videos though.
    Wish I had the extra cash to invest in a paramotor.
    Looks like fun.

    Loading block here in hEl Paso. They have a new policy that the driver has to be in the truck or standimg 20ft away. I watched the driver in the truck in front of me who is standing 20ft away almost get nailed by the forklift when be backed straight up.

    Great policy there, office clowns.
