    Here’s the deal. Its 100% true. I can make up some moderately funny stuff on the rare occasion.

    Pooping in my drivers seat is 0% funny to me. There’s no way I’d even conceive to make this up.

    There’s no way I would’ve posted this but for the Werner thread. And that I can’t believe he didn’t dive out of the truck Kung ## style to keep himself from ####ting in my seat. I know I would’ve.

    Oh and by the way STT (supertrucker trainee) told me after the “incident” that:

    His CB set up has a 50 mile range, but he can’t remember what kind it is.

    I think mine is like 1 mile. No clue if this is possible. I thought I read 15 miles was amazing. Can’t remember

    I had the most epic trip plan ever this week.

    It required some hard, and some uncomfortable running, as it required an all nighter, then just some late night driving.

    So in the final stages, 2 of 3 trips complete, I left Otay Mesa last night under the cover of darkness. About 2200.

    Went up to the big brown and dropped and hooked.

    Left the bb just after midnight. Making great as the the majority of the communist were asleep.

    Stopped for a couple tacos at Dillion Road Love's.

    Was feeling tired but no place to shut down. We pressed on into the night.

    Got to Desert Center at 0300, and decided to shut down, cause we'd still have time to make it to the TA in Tonapah in time for to go box.

    So got up at 0600 and headed east toward the most awesome state.

    Once across the state line and away from the communists, the OM started meowing, paws going, anticipating the coming to go box.

    Now the TA in Tonapah and Petro in Eloy are the two most epic places in The United States for to go box.

    So we go past the Peelot conversion at exit 95, mouths watering, already tasting the deliciousness, knowing we're gonna chow down, then sleep as rhinoceroses and coatamaris.

    "Ramp closed at exit 103" sign says.:eek:

    We get to exit 103.

    "Ramp closed."

    I cannot begin to express the level of emotional and psychological suffering this has placed on myself and the cats today.

    "Bro, your CB will do 50 miles but you don't know when it's time to potty. "
    "I think your priorities might be a bit off kilter. "
    Jus sayin

    am not really paying attention and will be upset later that no one taught me that),

    No, statment of fact. Had i said "how DO I know" that would be a question. "How I know" is a statement of fact.

    A visable emission is several orders of magnitude different than a fart.

    If a fart is the moon, then what STT did is equivalent of Saturn.

    Couple things about radios.

    A good antenna is of paramount importance. A bad signal from a bad antenna is only magnified by the idiot fix of “must have more power”.

    Further, range and genitalia size have one thing in common. Men have a tendency to greatly embellish and exaggerate both.

    That 15 miles may have been from the top of a mountain.

    On a similar, gastric note, I found a bag of original Doritos Taco flavor chips just south of Branson MO. Not sharing

    "how do you know" is a question. rhetorical or otherwise it is a question.

    Where do you get "How DO I know"/How I know" from "how you know you are about to be screwed.".

    how you know you are about to be screwed. is a factual statement and not a question?
