It does! I wanted to try something different, it was a nice day to grill something. The roast was a freebie, from a cow my brother had slaughtered. I seared it on the grill first, then put it in an aluminum roasting pan with potatoes, onions, carrots, garlic, and a can of beef broth. Then I covered it with foil and cooked it until the potatoes were done. Meat was tougher than a truck tire. The potatoes, onions, and carrots were good though. Reminds me of the old recipe for cooking a carp- use 1 12 inch pine board, cleaned well. Butter the board all over. Clean carp and place on board. Add salt, pepper, bay leaf, parsley, and thyme to taste. Bake in moderate oven (350 degrees) for one hour. When done to a golden brown remove from oven. Carefully remove carp from board, then throw carp away and eat board.

you should get a lot of practice backing around the yard don't you, moving trailers around? looks like it would be a good place to get in some practice sometime.

Much like I was saying how nobody told Big R jokes when J.B.Hunt and Swift came along, now maybe Rob won't feel like he's being picked on anymore because of you. By the way, it was all in his head anyway.

thinking it? it's obvious y'all are crazy! I managed to get to the grocery store yesterday and came home and attempted to cook a beast roast on the grill, but it came out so tough it was barely edible. Shoulda went with the crock pot.

yes it is His name is Amirola or something, I just say "areola".

Double L has somehow managed to hack into my PC and is posting this outrageous stuff Rowdy...don't worry though, i'll get to the bottom of this heinous crime and put a stop to it ASAP. That's funny though-wondered why my nose suddenly broke for no obvious reason.

what does all this mean? I'm going back to altering photos!

Sonuvabitch!!..say what?..and i'll cry over a song on the radio?..damn...back to therapy I go...

I don't?..I mean I DON'T!!!!

hey Dozer...how about a nice juicy T-bone there ol' buddy?

P.S.- If you ever get down towards Virginia, please give me 2 days notice, so I can be somewhere else.

Another picture to work with...saved...I'm trying to quit, but nobody's helping...too bad Rob doesn't post more pictures-he's not on my "i'm tryin' to quit" list.

how true

I keep the back of my seat way more forward than is most comfortable, simply because I don't want to be too comfortable. I feel it keeps me more alert and less likely to take a short nap at the wheel...I really couldn't care less what I look like to others- except when I drove a GMC Astro with the huge windshield. If you were scratching your nuts in one of them everybody knew it!

5' 4''? So, how many Chicago phone books do you have to pile in the seat to see over the dash? Do you put the blocks on the pedals or on your shoes like the kid in "Oh Brother Where Art Thou?". Just curious.

good choice

That is a problem. I like the suspended clutch pedal too, but i'm kinda used to the Peterbilt now. Your foot can slip off the pedal really easily, especially when your shoes are wet or muddy. Had to get used to no air in the seat too and I don't like it.(OK Freightrain, have at it!) With a usable air ride seat you barely even feel a bump, but if I put any air in the seat at all I could only see about 7 feet in front of me.

I looked at that picture and said "WTF?!! What body part is THAT?" Jo said "that's his ass cheeks". I said "no way!". Then we figured out it was an elbow...but when you first look at it- man, I could have a field day with this picture-but i'm not gonna do it...i'm trying to quit.

I pull a 48' spread axle...am I your idol? Seriously, I think that's the best way to learn. You're fortunate to have someone who's "been there and done that" to teach you everything and show you things rather than just telling you something and that's the end of it. There's nothing like hands on experience that you can learn by hearing someone tell you about it or reading about it. That's what pisses me off about the guys coming out of school- they've been on the road for a year or two and know it all and i'm a fool-"well that ain't how they taught us to do it, my trainer (who probably has 2 and a half years experience) said to do this and do that and you're all wrong..." But you have a good attitude and I feel sure you'll be successful.

thanks a lot...now I feel even older than I'm already is

I've pulled a flatbed over 30 years now...hard to believe, but true.
