    Made it home Saturday around 17:00. Off today then headed to Kansas City with an empty that loads Wed morning. Has to be washed within 8 hours of loading so its an easy 1000 miles in 2 days with no real schedule. I will drop the tank at the tank wash and they have it ready about an hour before I go load. They leave it wet and around 200 degrees F. One of the best tank washes I have been to. They even have a pool table and recliners in the drivers room.

    It's used in the oil field. When it gets wet it expands. The send it down oil holes when they frack. It acts as a lubricant and helps keep the holes open.

    What's liquid death?

    It looks like watery elmers glue, depending on the blend. When water hits it, it turns to boogery slime, that is the slickest stuff that you've ever seen. It sucks when you get some on your boots soles and it dries. You can have it on there for weeks, then walk through a puddle and immediately blow your britches out when you do the splits. Or if you walk fresh mopped floor in a c-store and then you have booger streamers from ypur boots to the floor whenever you take a step.
    Last month, in Midland, I almost hit another driver with my tire thumper because it flew out of my hand when I was doing my drives and he was climbing out of the cab. Scared him half to death lol
    I'd had some on my gloves and got almost all the way around the truck befpre I switched hand. The hand I switched to had condensation from the trailer on it and that's all it took.

    I think I'm going to find out later. Just ate 2 burritos from a guy in a Nissan juke, who just showed up at the plant. Delicious! But I'm already percolating
