  1. Good luck- Bulldogman might have some helpful gym rat info, he stays in the gym...looks like superman
  2. I just called headquarters and i've got to load in the morning for Warren, Ohio. Then I have to go to Butler, Pa. I think, to go to court on Wednesday about the $6,357 overweight ticket I got. I thought they'd get an attorney from the area to represent me, but I have to go. I hate going to court, but this is pretty serious money and Todd the VP is going and so is Bobby the safety man. I'm glad they're going because it scares me...
  3. Truck World,eh? I haven't been by there in a while.
  4. Amen to that Mike. There is only one who ever walked this earth who was perfect, but there's many who seem to think they are.
  5. Well I got the old computer back yesterday. I couldn't get anything to work, and the screen just loaded up with all kinds of error messages... My son Morgan came and got it and took it to the same guy that fixed the power source. He removed over 800 infected files, and I had just ran an Avast full virus scan and it came up all clean. I called Old Bill, he recommended Avast to me in the first place. He said I should have ran the boot scan, the most thorough scan that scans everything, even start-up. I'd seen it but didn't know what it was, I thought the full scan would be the most thorough. So I ran the boot scan as soon as I got home and found and deleted 5 more infected files. Anyhow, it's working now but some links won't work- youtube links won't work and I can't go straight to facebook from BMT anymore. Then the water froze Monday night and I had to call a plumber. Seen some big Mack trucks during my travels. Saw this in a paper, but I like it. It was taken at a truck show at Lee-Hi Truckstop. I bobtailed to Salem, Ohio and picked up a new 53' Mac trailer. Went to McKees Rocks to load it and saw some frozen water in the river. Then I took a load of beams to Ambridge and saw the sun setting behind Wintergreen mountain when I was going up Afton mtn. I was supposed to load in Pittsburgh Friday, but had to go to Milton, W.V. instead to pick up a mill roll that they had to have in Petersburg Saturday morning. Saw this fellow having a bad day in Fairmont, W.V. Big lathe at Engines Inc. in Milton. It was very foggy in Petersburg yesterday morning. Meanwhile, in Canada it's business as usual...or hockey as usual.
  6. that ship has sailed...........sorry, couldn't resist.
  7. I've seen that picture before.
  8. Absolutely, there's a lot of "like thinkers" here.
  9. By the way, here's an interesting older thread- http://www.bigmacktrucks.com/index.php?/topic/21861-do-you-object-to-mildly-controversial-off-topic-discussions-on-bmt/?hl=%20off%20%20topic
  10. Same here, my computer's been down for a week and i've been catching up since I got home this morning. I think "Pictures of the Week" will have to wait until tomorrow, i'm getting tired.
  11. Well, I - oh, you said idiots...never mind.
  12. Rob is still alive and well to my knowledge, haven't talked to him in a while though. He was indeed most helpful to everyone, and had a lot of knowledge about a lot of things and didn't mind sharing it. I think he kind of got fed up with some things, he posted a joke- a joke- aimed at another member once and got a lot of flak for it, and was accused of "gratuitous cursing" by another member because of one post he made, the same member that accused me of having a "man crush" on him when I said something in his defense. Rob was well liked by everyone else, and still missed.
  13. yep, that's 219 all right- looks the same everywhere evidently.
  14. I've been called lots of things before, don't think "genius" was ever one of them.
  15. You ain't seen nuthin' yet- got the real computer, here's Freightrain's truck...
  16. That's exactly right. I made $2.75 an hour at my first real job, worked 46 hours a week and brought home $102.91. I figured you had to earn a raise, which I did, to $2.90 an hour, but the hours went to 40 a week, then I brought home $97.66. Worked there 2 1/2 years, then I took a welding job making $5.00 an hour for a couple years, then I started driving a truck in 1979 and have made about $1.83 an hour ever since.
  17. I follow Allen West on facebook, and i'd vote for him tomorrow if I could. I read what he has to say, and I like him, Herman Caine, and Mike Huckabee.
  18. Guess I need to stop there soon, i'm gray all over.
  19. everybody bring your brass monkeys in!
  20. Just need to mount her a seat on the front bumper- or maybe you'd need a two seater-
  21. Saw this fancy Autocar yesterday in Buckingham when I was going to Dillwyn to load. Got a drive-by picture on the way back. Been there a long time, but it's usually parked in the back where it was hard to get a picture. It had a "for sale" sign on it at one time.
  22. I gotta leave Sunday, going to Chester, W.V. Loaded yesterday, but they said to deliver Monday because it's supposed to be rough up there today. Might still be rough Monday, then I got to go to Alliance to get a load of firebrick. I loaded it in a van, so no frozen tarps anyway, woo-hoo!
  23. Kind of like souse I guess- it might be delicious, but I don't know. Just don't look right to me.
  24. This used to be at the shows too, but I haven't seen it the last couple years. It's not as tall as the other one. This was taken in Greensboro when they had that show at the NAPA warehouse. Same show, they just moved it slightly west to the farmer's market in Colfax.
  25. I looked, but I couldn't figure out how it worked. Tried typing where it said to type but nothing happened. Clicked "start broadcasting" and it said something about my camera and speakers, but my webcam hasn't worked for years, so I gave up.
