  1. I saw this girl hitchhiking the other day, but I was going in the wrong direction.
  2. but what about these? these are history too! I've never eaten a lot of twinkies, but I do like these. Did I mean, I did like these.
  3. yep, especially since everything is fiberglass or plastic now, it doesn't take much to tear them up. I used to have some of those "deer whistles" on a cabover KW I drove in the 80's. They put them on all the trucks. I took mine off because they worked so good. Hit about 3 deer in the year or less they were on there. The deer would take off running but they were just as apt to run out in front of you as anywhere else. Without them there was a good chance they would stand on the shoulder and eat grass and not even move.I remember when Jeff Moore hit an owl on rt. 35 in Ohio one night. Knocked the windshield out of a cabover International. They told him to tape some plastic over it and wait until he got back to the shop to get it fixed- he was on the way to Chicago and the temperature was like single digit cold. He was still in a motel room at the 35/ I-71 junction the next night when I stopped by on the way to Chicago and the truck was at a shop somewhere getting a windshield put in it.

  5. You would have froze riding on the trailer Vinny. With Matt, Matt's fiance, brother, and friend in a B model cab it was already over crowded. They must be pretty small, i'm over crowded in mine by myself!When I first got that Peterbilt it had nice looking stainless steel half fenders on it until I put a strap on a load of lumber a little too far forward and crushed the left one when I was leaving the sawmill.
  6. Is that the name of that truckstop? Let's see...I left Sunday, had a 2 stop load of lumber going to Louisville and Akron, Oh. Loaded in Twinsburg Monday, came back down 77. Left again Tuesday with 2 stops in Erie and Fairview, Pa. Went up 64,60,39,20,19,and 79. Loaded at Sharon Wednesday...I went by there Wednesday morning. I unloaded in Lynchburg yesterday morning and didn't have another load to go out with, so I came home. I loaded kyanite in Dillwyn today going to Chester,W.V. for Monday and have a return load in McKees Rocks coming to Lynchburg. Then i'll probably be off the rest of the week for Thanksgiving.
  7. pretty neat screen saver picture there, eh?
  8. The big pig is in randyp's freezer, but many other hogs attended the memorial service for their late leader today.
  9. I don't know that she was a harlot, looked like she had issues with her left rear tire. Now this girl that was standing at the next corner might well have been a harlot...
  10. well, I did see this one girl in Summersville. She tried to flag me down but I didn't have time to fool with her. I think she wanted me to help get her pointed in the right direction.
  11. Nothing too exciting, so i'll try to add gripping descriptions. Good looking Oldsmobile leaking antifreeze in New London. Macks at Art Reed's place in Montvale. There's another Superliner behind the other Superliner. Vlad's road shots Before I-64 was finished to Beckley and there was lots more truck traffic on rt. 60 this was called "dead man's curve". There was a lot more accidents and rollovers in the last curve at the bottom of the mountain coming into Rainelle than there was here though. could be a U model... turning around in a tight spot Following the bull wagon up the hill. I think that's a Diamond Reo dump truck down there. There's Lake Erie over there behind the Mack place that's behind the truckstop. Power plant... another power plant... A helicopter on a trailer.
  12. I saw a triceratops in Colorado or Wyoming once.
  13. more Mack wrecker trucks
  14. are you saying Spot is the brains of that outfit?
  15. by accident of course, while doing serious research on the interweb machine- happens to me all the time.
  16. naw, randyp 'splained all that- It was too heavy for him and spot to carry out of the brush, so he tied a rope to it's feets and stretched it's legs straight out and tied them off to a tree.The next morning he brought the track hoe in with Killer. The hog was stiff as a board by then, and he set the hog upright with the hoe. It was too heavy for the hoe to lift the whole hog at once, so randy backed the trailer under it while Spot lifted the front end of it up. Once the front end was on the trailer, he just got behind it and shoved it the rest of the way with the hoe, chained it down, and was off. Simple.
  17. yep, he finally got that big hog that chased him up a tree. he sent a picture. I must be off now.
  18. ....or, you could stockpile some dried apples. then you can have dried apples for breakfast, drink a glass of water for lunch, and swell up for supper.
  19. I am.
  20. forgot a picture- I saw this girl hitchhiking, but I didn't have time to stop.
  21. .
  22. I think that picture's a rerun from last Thanksgiving.
  23. right good sized ones all right!The grader has a 1,000hp. engine in the rear and a 700hp. engine in front. It was never used and being dismantled for scrap. The dozer has 2 675hp. Cat engines. http://www.vincelewi...accograder.html http://www.vincelewis.net/acco.html
