And you do all your own lumping? Heckuva workout there even with a good pallet jack and roller.

No, never - I might break a nail...

There we go, Major Kong has got to be in peak condition to ride that nuke in!

At 5.8, I'm short enough that I can do squats, toe touches, push ups, and tricep dips while in the truck.
I don't, but I could...

Well I've never seen anything like that on "Ice Road Truckers" - did "reality" TV fail us all again?  ::)

Do you remember that show where they went out and repoed big trucks? What a joke! THAT show was a down right lie - so many tracking devices on these things nowadays. Even a black box:
Speed, sway, braking power, length and distance of braking, etc.

I use to have warmers and water heaters but I didn't like having all of that stuff in my truck taking up space.
I like to be a minimalistic as possible so if I really need something to be warm, I'll place it in front of my bunk heater for about twenty minutes.

I do recall that one, it was almost as stagey as the Airplane Repo show, which I became quite the fan of.

Gimme some hash, fried up to where it's a little crispy on top, then flip some eggs over it, either over easy or poached.

I liked potted meat or deviled ham. On saltines, just to ensure I get enough salt.  Not all the time but sometimes. Reminds me of the outdoors. SPAM is also nice sometimes, fried up on a sandwich or with eggs. I haven't tried the new "fancy" versions of SPAM though.  Thanks for hauling the rendered meat products. It is truckers who keep Americans stocked up!

Up at 0200 to run 40,000lbs. of candy bars to St. Louis!

Be a shame if you happened to be driving in front of my house on your way there and hit that massive pot-hole causing a box or two to "fall off the truck..."


(this photo is sure to set off that idjet cat-lady that bitches about my dog pictures, I will note that a dog has to eat its own body-weight in chocolate for it to have the deleterious effects...)

You'd be surprised at how many drivers try to get away with stuff like this!

I remember in my long-ago college days a fellow student getting me addicted to Armour BBQ sausages, along with Ritz crackers.  Fortunately, I was able to detox from that habit. Damn pushers! ;)

WIH tip of the day:
Don't forget to mix that gelatin in with some ramen noodles!
