Here is a pic. the freeway is just to the left of the pic, paralell to Sweetwater. The GPS says to turn right on Mitchell, then right on Sweetwater. "You have arrived at your destination." Well, sometimes, anyway. lol.

Hi Rob. Don’t truckers usually use a GPS geared for them?

Have you ever seen the quality of truckers that UPS uses to move their loads during peak?

I had some shifting time during peak for several years. I would meet the drivers just inside the fence and take their loads and put them on the door. I had one brag to me that he double-tripped Mesquite to Houston back to back by himself. Thats 2 10+ hour trips back to back. A lot don't speak english, some drive barefooted. Some pulled doubles and told me they never pulled doubles and didn't have a multiple trailer endorsement on their CDL. You wouldn't believe.

Yes. And yes. A lot of them seem to be russians.

One geared towards them so they avoid low bridges and other hazards for trucks. Also, with good truck routes and roads they’re not allowed to use.

And it’s the people like that who have made the lives of every CDL driver miserable with all the DOT rules.

Bullet, went fishing down to the coast with 2 of my neighbors yesterday. 6 flounder. The one on the bottom was a hoss. Apologize for the pic quality.

Do those have scales or skin like a catfish?

The only fish i know of that doesn't have scales, at least down here is catfish. Flounder have teeny tiny scales. it's a moot point when I filet them, since I separate the meat from the skin. Now if you bake them, I have to scale them because you usually leave the skin on and stuff them with something like crabmeat or shrimp. That is one of the best tastin' fish dishes I've ever had.

I can only hope no one here allows their children to be exposed to this demeaning sexually aggressive baseball child's movie !
I believe it should be banned and a congressional hearing to follow
Mr Squints !
