Where is everyone #5

If your gonna be stupid, you better be tuff. I've been stomped, wrecked, tossed. But worst was playing ring of fire. 2 foot chalk circle for each participant. 20 dollar pot. Bull gets turned loose. Move all you want in the circle. You leave circle in fear or force, you loose. I left second to last like a drunk from a trailer park. Not under my own will. Cleared the fence. Emt's were waking me up in the bleachers on top of people.

Id never advise anyone to try it. Did I go get looked at? Nope, went and drank beer, lots of beer. Slept face down for 2 weeks, but never missed a day of my real job.

 

99% of the time that's the case, but was actually advised not to go that way..

That was the last of just 4 loads going in there.
Real issue started while booking it through tmc brokerage.

Empty out in middlebury, IN & parked at Gallop 11:15am.
Monkey around with tmc till 14:00 for a rate con.
Roll in to South Bend, IN 14:28 to load.
Shipper "you were supposed to be here at 9:00 to load & deliver today!! Now we have to pay a 2nd day for the crane!! "
Me " ahh, talk to your broker cheif, thought I did pretty good getting here to load just 28mins after getting the load."

He calms down realizing he's being mad at the absolute wrong guy. Wagon loaded, only then gets into the spiel about a low bridge & blind siding off a one way, onto another one way & back down 3 blocks with cars parked both sides & gotta be there by 0800, "they'll be wait'n on ya!!" Lol

Satellite maps did me a solid, could read the 11'6" which I knew Peaches would fit, standing 11'1" top of stacks..

Still a turd day.
Bounced from The Windy up to Dundee to load pipe, auger, & junk for a jobsite. Get there after 1200 only to find out it 118" wide after being assured it's all legal. Welp, no OS gear or beacons, not to mention no permits till probably Monday sometime, I sit here with a terrible TONU, & an empty wagon. Least I got a spot to crash nearby, & Monday is a new day..

 

Started riding horses a bit in my teens. Got tossed off once and said to hell with this, I'll stick with tracks and treads. At least you can usually predict when a quad or sled is going to toss you.

I still enjoy being around horses though, interesting creatures.

 

I drank moonshine and rode 700 pound hogs. Craig in NJ has the video to prove it lol. I was tuff and drunk…..

 

Being drunk makes you nearly immortal. You can fall out of an airplane, hit the ground at 150 mph, bounce twice, and still get up and walk home….as long as you’re drunk.

 

Speaking of sandwiches,

Thid is one that’s seemingly extremely difficult to get made anywhere other than the house. A grilled fried bologna and cheese sandwich. I will tell them what I want, and explain how to make it, and they will bring me a fried bologna and cheese on toast.


The other day, I ordered a farmhouse burger.

“How do you want it cooked?”

Medium.

“How do you want the egg?”

Scrambled.

99.9% of the time, it comes out with a fried egg. Apparently, other than Waffle House, a scrambled egg has gone the way of the manual transmission.

While at the motorcycle rally, I cooked breakfast for the guys. “Hey Six, the eggs are great! What kinds are these???” Scrambled. One guy even FaceTimed his lady to show her how to scramble eggs.

 

Hey watch this...hold my beer. Yup, been there done that. Not with bulls though. Don't know how I am still alive.

 

I ate those when I was young. Spam and velveeta cheese. Don't eat either any more.

 

I need one of those. Thanks for that.
