    I drove in tain all the way from KY this morning.

    I witnessed many astonishing acts of motorist stupidity.

    I had hair-raising tales to relate, but my angst has subsided.

    I suddenly realized today was Wednesday, and I have used less than 20 hrs of my 70, and traveled only 870 miles.

    I checked the schedule and saw a bunch of blank spaces.

    TM says our major shipper is doing some routine maintenance that seems to have caused some emergency maintenance.

    Well, I got a 400 mile round trip load for tomorrow, so off to bed.

    Maybe I'll get that long weekend sooner than I thought.......

    I saw this the other day at a pilot in Indiana. FP funeral parlor. He was just dropping a driver off. I though he was going to pull someone out.

    I always found it interesting. Jerry Reed was a trucker. Yet in that clip he is having a hell of a time just trying to put that Kenworth in gear.
