    ----and don't forget all the Ninjas and Special Forces types that have to register their hands as lethal weapons! It's no wonder some state diesel cops dress in combat gear with all these dangerous types out there!

    They are usuay 350lbs. Once in a while a skinny guy claims it, bit it seems to be a fat guys domain.

    If I was going to steal valor. I would claim to be a sou chef and that I hate tigers.

    Well, I know this week will seem long, Just went and got Freightliner from shop, just gotta get that windshield replaced, so I’ll run old Red again this week,
    I made gamer boy go with me and drive pickup back.
    I told him to be prepared, he’s going out this week,
    Gotta get up at 0430 to arrive by 0700 for load that then delivers 210 mile away for a 1500 appointment, then we DH 115 miles away for a reload at 0600, which we can stay overnight at the place.
    And I found out a guy I’ve known all my life, was found dead by his truck door from a heart attack(he was 67)
    So we will rush that load back to within 75 miles Wednesday unloading, and seeing when visitation will be, then go there, or if it’s postponed for family, well maybe another round.

    I haven’t told him that the KWs AC works, but during 90+ you start to think it’s not working and you feel like rolling down the window, until you get out of it, anyway.
    I told him if he’s not up when the time comes in the morning, I’m upending the bed.

    First legal job was at the marina in Rodeo, Ca. Did everything from cleaning the returning rental fishing skiffs (people were real slobs) to cleaning bathrooms and helping people coming into to launch ramp. Paid minimum wage, $1.25 an hour. Then I got a job working for a terrific guy at a gas station for $1.45 hr and a discount on gas, which was a whopping $0.279 a gallon back then. But I still usually had pocket money all the time and at 16 that was enough.
