  2. Thank you. To all that are serving.
  3. Just last week we were talking about smokers at work. And l mentioned l knew of a guy who used an old gas stove. No one had heard of that before! So Tom, the stove may be gone and replaced by a barrel but it's not forgotten. .....Hippy

  5. lf you reuse the cover bag off a pallet of wood pellets to cover your gas grill, garden tractor, and/or snow blower. You maybe a frugal Yankee Redneck........ .....Hippy
  6. When your overnight guest ask to use the bathroom before going to bed, and you hand them a flashlight then point towards the back door............ .....Hippy
  7. l am making an effort to find and speak to those who made an impact on myself in the past. The few l have spoken to are surprise to be thanked for something that they did. Small or large doesn't matter so long as it was an important moment. A friend who towed my truck home from Hartford Conn, no charge. Repair shop owner that put other work on hold so l could get fixed and on my way. Terminal manager assuring my wife l would have a job after l recovered from back surgery. The one guy l can't find is the one that taught me to drive tractor trailer. Ed Armstrong last known to drive for Bemis Bag in Pepperell Mass. And there are several more to go yet. ......Hippy
  8. When l started driving over the road in 1979. I was delivering candy to an old warehouse in Chicago. Had a COE 4070 with manual steering and a 42' trailer. As hard as l tried to back in that day it just wasn't going to happen. This old local driver next to me had watched me long enough. He stood out in front of the my truck 25'/30' and said "You have the trailer were it needs to be, now pull up and put the truck in place. And if you are not in in three attempts pull out, go around the block and try it again" Joey l can't tell you how many times l've seen that guy standing out in front of my truck the past 44.5 years! .....Hippy
