    I got back to the truck JUST as more torrential tain started. Thanks be to God!

    PFJ pizza was pretty durn tasty.

    I watched "Chinatown" (the Jack Nicholson movie) on Netflix. I've seen parts of it, first time I've seen it all the way through. Great movie! One of Jack's best, IMO. Faye Dunaway, smokin' as always and shows a generous helping of sideboob in this one. Good story, 5 stars.

    And with that, off to bed. G'nite!

    More relevant would be the testing data from crashes. Just because one uses drugs doesn't automatically mean they are irresponsible or drive intoxicated or cause wreks. Admittedly, one might expect to find a high correlation between accidents and drugs/drinking. To confirm that point if view one would have to look at the data. It might reflect no/little correlation.

    If most wrecks generally speaking are unrelated to drugs or alcohol then it seems the present system works fine. Those passing the urinalysis are apparently responsible people, as they have obviously studied for the test. Never was a fan of zero tolerance on anything, too totalitarian. Not a fan of Gestapo.

    BTW, I don't use drugs either. Not even the prescription kind if I can help it. Kind of a natural remedy or tough it out person.

    Sloughhouse corn was a staple at my house when I was growing up. Every time we made a trip to Sacramento a stop to get some corn was mandatory when it was in season. (Know I mentioned it before, but I grew up in Amador County, about 10 miles outside the booming metropolis of Plymouth)

    Ah, memories.

    I don’t believe that Trucking has many drug users. Sure there’s some cases, more likely alcohol related. Ms. Pulled Me over. I explained I swerved to block their lights. Usually gets the tailgaters off my ###. Didn’t know it was them!! Lol. They understood, no ticket. Said they get a Lot of Truckers Drunk Driving, coming out of Louisiana. I believe it. 24 hr alcohol, let the good times roll. Till you get to Ms. Ms. don’t play that game. Lol. Women folk, and the Church keep it suppressed. Some County’s it’s illegal to have in your own home.
