  1. First time I seen it...I guess in that case it's neither skill or luck. It's straight bullshit. Thanks
  2. Not sure how to comment... It's probably not accurate to say the guys lucky because if it weren't for skill he'd be dead. You can't call it all skill either ( or can you?) cuz if it wasn't for luck he'd again, be dead. https://www.facebook.com/john.trolinger.58/posts/741789292511625
  3. Such talent.... http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=107_1393888826
  4. Then we would get screwed twice... First time from lost production and then additional taxes in the tune of a few billion to pay for that new program. Even better idea...since obamas talking about rebuilding the infrastructure ( again) anyway, reduce the width of the highway lane by a couple of feet. We could save a ton of money on asphalt/concrete and rebar, we wouldn't need to create a new program and the dummies that still tried splitting lanes most likely wouldn't need too much medical care. I could possibly even squeeze a fuel savings out of it if I had slightly less lane to navigate in.
  5. Considering the average interstate is about 12' wide and your typical big truck is 102" wide it leaves you with about 3-4' of room between trucks if they're both running down the center of their lanes. Even a loud bike would be near impossible to hear coming in order to make a little extra room which most truckers would do considering most aren't making money when the wheels stop turning. Aside from stupidity, would this fall into the " target fixation" category or something else?
  6. Staying in that jail, in that county probably isn't the "safest" place to be right about now for this guy.
  7. WOW!! Awesome footage..... I was waiting for her fat ass to pull that top row of bricks loose when she was trying to climb back over...obviously with expected consequences... SPLAT!!
  8. Check out the beating these cops dish out down in Chattanooga ... These guys are back on the force! I'm not saying the guy getting the beating was completely innocent ( at least at the start) but this is nuts! Glad the NJ judge had more sense then the one in TN. http://youtu.be/P8qTRbrC6ws
  9. It really shows you how quick the media will jump on a story when it fits into their narrative regardless of any facts. My wife told me she seen it on the news. I told her there's no way and that it must have been a dog. She insisted that it was a wolf. I said if it was a wolf it was sick/ rabid because they're typically real skittish of people and don't just voluntarily come around. Thousands of people strolling around the Olympic village isn't particularly what they like unless there's been some domestication. Well, 1000 miles later she's calling me telling me I was right and kimmel was behind it. No one at any of those news stations could figure that out?
  10. Wasn't there a girl on here awhile back that was tying guys up and humiliating them to pay her way through school? None of it makes them bad girls. If nothing else at least she's paying her own way and not waiting for a handout. ( I didn't read the article)
  11. Have you looked into these? The local feed store or tack shop might save you some shipping costs.
  12. If it makes you feel any better... I don't think you guys are all nuts. This particular type...most definately, but in all my years out here, it's a very small percentage that do this stuff. These guys usually scare the crap out of me. Here I am, off in my own little world driving along, when one of these guys blow by you with an engine screaming. You never see it coming and so far I haven't gotten used to it. Then you've got the ones going down the middle doing wheelies. Can't tell you how many times I've seen that going through cities. @Booger...yeah, a lane change or just something hanging off of a trailer, rv or a couple of 2x4's sticking out of someone's trunk ( oooh that would suck!) . Damn sure wouldn't see any of that in time.... Whaddya think....closed casket?
  13. How are Hungarian toothbrushes different? ( I can't possibly be the only one that's wondering ...am I?)
  14. Looks like some real close calls. Looks like luck plays a major roll in this escapade. This guys lucky if he sees 30.
  15. http://youtu.be/Wq_6toXQCdk Thanks for telling me....hope I got it this time....
  16. You happen to have a pic of that? You going forward or backing? I crushed a mini once. After hurricane sandy I did a " power only" gig and was yanking a tanker around NY and NJ. A month straight of 16 - 18 hour days. H.O.S. Was waived at the time for anyone involved in the relief ( funny how they can do that when THEY want to). Anyway, unloaded 12000 gallons of fuel at a small BP station where I was literally covering the front of the store with my trailer and my nose was up against a fence. Came out with my paper work signed, did a walk around heading back to my seat and everything was clear. I didn't see or hear anything but this mini pulls right up behind me, parking in the fire zone, and runs inside. Meanwhile I had just put it in gear and started rolling backwards. I didn't know till the guy came out screaming. The mini didnt look so good after. Shame on the guy for not parking where he should have. I never heard another thing about it and it doesn't come up on computers. Cops came but I didn't get any tickets, wasn't made to give a bottle. The whole thing delayed me about 30 minutes and I was headed back to the terminal for another load....
  17. REMOVED Totally nuts! At this rate he's never going to see 26....
  18. These guys are in the casket hauling biz....one of their trailers with a little special message for the texters that I seen recently. Being that it's not safe to text, I opted to take a picture instead. I've seen more strange things going on down in them little 4 wheelers then I'd ever care to admit to
  19. Just a guess but seems like all hell has broken loose since ryoder moved away from there...
  20. +1 I've always had a real hard time understanding how they can't come up with money to build a new bridge but can find hundreds of millions of bucks to hand off to corrupt foreign governments ...that don't even like us. Who does that?!...i know....we do. What happened to those "shovel ready" jobs? Other then the usual construction there wasn't a big rebuilding program happening. Now it's not even talked about. Money's gone, nothing was built...move along folks, nothing new to see here. Now they got smart...they want to throw a shit ton of money into some pre k program and no kid left behind... It's easy to see if bridges are being built or not....tons of dollars are going to be wasted and there won't be a damn thing to show for it. Maybe we'd be way better off letting parents parent children in their early years instead of shipping them into yet another institution.
  21. Not that this my most knowledgeable subject but my wife and daughter are both users of nail polish. From what I've seen and we've sat around joking about, nail polish colors seen to match stripper names more then they actually descibe a particular color.
  22. 2000 hp engine on a 1500lb frame...that is one bad ass machine!

    The route

    That's a good thing... Seems like that Dallas, Little Rock, Memphis area gets nailed with one of these ice storms every winter... Now that we got that behind us....:-) A few weeks ago someone had posted asking for the best way to go in winter from Denver to the east coast. The last few days would have been one of those times when it didn't matter which way you went. This last storm has left a lot of pile ups in its wake. Ice is bad stuff when it comes to driving. You can do everything right and it'll still get you. Your best bet in icey conditions is to stay where your at till the conditions change. Ya'll be safe out there .....
