    Potassium cyanide...

    I usually only get one drum of that at a time on the rare occasions I do haul it. A metal refinishing company I deliver to uses it. The fumes in that place are pretty noxious.

    Took the ex (wasn't an ex at the time) and her stupid miniature poodle on a trip from Kentucky to L.A. and back. It really is a tossup on which one came closest to being left in the desert on I-10

    I said never again a few times but the wife somehow won out.
    The last time the mother in law took her pick of seating strategically placing herself toward the middle of the back seat so she can see the speedo and upcoming road/traffic and nag me to death about everything. When we stopped for a break I got a piece of cardboard and made a cover for the dash while they got thier soda and coffee. I drove from Ohio to commifornia like that and she was quiet the hole time.
    Purchased a new SUV for the wife after that and my only demand was it had to have a third row seat just in case we have to take her mother someplace.
