    A man calls Bill Gates. Says "Tell your daughter to marry my son..."Bill says NO.
    Man says" But, he is the vice president of the World Bank." Bill says. "In that case , yes."
    Man hangs up.
    Calls the president of the World Bank. Says "I want you to make my son your vice president."
    Pres says no.. Man says "But, he is Bill Gates son in law." Pres says: In that case, why yes.
    This is known as politics and basically how it works.....

    A truck driver finds a lamp, and rubs it. A genie comes out and says, “Thank you for releasing me, master. I will grant you one wish.” The trucker thinks for a moment and says, “I would like my own personal, private, toll-free road from New York to California.” The genie shakes his head and says, “There are far too many federal, state, and local regulations involved, that would be too difficult. Is there anything else you’d rather have?” The trucker thinks for another minute and says “I wish my wife would stop nagging me.” The genie replies, “All right, how many lanes do you want for that road?”

    I'm at the last R/A on I-90 wb before I-271, in Ohio.

    I'm doing a parked regen. Tried 3 times to do it, finally got it on the last try.

    Probably be here the full hour. Soot level was pretty high.

    And on top of that, I strayed off WIIS and got into it with some bobtail knucklehead. When will I ever learn?

    Another snow squall.....

    Regen complete!!! Squeaky-clean DPF.

    Finish my sammich, and get back rollin'!

    You don’t have time to eat a sandwich, it’s time to go to work.

    Ok so I jave been in some pretty tight truck stops... But this one takes the cake... There are only about 20% of the spots that one could get out of when the lot is packed full without real danger of tearing up someone's truck. I pulled in scaled and parked without really surveying the situation.

    Upon a more in-depth analysis I decided I had better move to a different spot before its too late. I had to pull out of my spot into the center of 3 open spots straight across from me and do a very tight 90° back out into the aisle way... Ater circling the lot at 3 mph I picked what I believe is the best of the remaining places to park... All the really good spots to get out of are already taken.

    Seriously the aisle ways are like 40 to 45 feet from front bumper to front bumper across the aisle!!! SMH
