    Worked with a guy named Albert. Every morning we would meet up and go to his Tia’s restaurant.
    Ranch eggs and beer for breakfast. Abuela was over by the kitchen making tortillas from scratch. Grind her own corn, hand form and everything. Best tortillas.

    Wya? I might take em off your hands for the cabover.

    Rates are #### on my stuff too. Took a load to California that would have paid OK had the pete decided to not derate and the fan clutch give up the ghost. Deadheading home 1700 miles wasn't the plan but better to lose out on an equally crap rate home than to burn up the engine or get totally derated and stranded. Almost didn't make it up 40 out of needles. She got a little on the hot side but kept on slugging along in 4th gear at near boiling. Heat cranked inside I think it was hotter in the truck than outside. Dann 2500 dollar 2 speed fan hub bs. Can't just have a simple air operated one oh no we can't have that.

    Twist lock things like everyone else has said. Can be a bit finicky and seize up if you don't give em a twist every now and then in the winter.

    Wife’s cousin is married to a Mexican woman, great person for sure. Last hog I roasted she made some fresh homemade of those things for folks to put the bbq in. Wife explained they were the same thing as I found on my plate, but here were sure better….

    Cordele is 110ish mile south of Jackson. Ole Rudy's in Jackson is a good spot, but felt like rolling on..

    At the 102 is a newish Love's, but I come here for Smoakies bbq across the street. 3rd time here, & never bothered to check their hours. Usually here Friday or Saturday. Apparently they shut er down at 3pm Wed & Thursday!!! :mad:

    Got burnt on that one, had the Bo'Jangles dinner of shame!! Lol. Nah it wasn't terrible, but not what I was look'n foward to..

    Most people think of Corona when they think of Mexican beer. Corona is for people who don’t like beer to be able to drink beer socially.

    Next time you get to a Mexican joint ask for a Modelo Negra. Looks like a stout, but it is not. It will surprise you how good it tastes. It’s so good that you will actually look forward to trying all Mexican beers.
