-Was it ever just you and a truck or have you always ran chimps?
the first couple years I worked mostly alone.
On July 7 1992 I suffered an alcohol related violent roll over crash.
I was too drunk to walk BEFORE I crashed.
(they told me in the emergency room my blood alcohol level was 2.5)
after the crash, I couldn't walk at all and was all jacked up in a bad way.
The orthopedic surgeon put me back together with screws and plates and then a long painful rehab.
Painful physically and emotionally.
i
I couldn't walk for a month and was hobbled for well over a year.
A man on the van with me became a necessity, not a luxury.
Ever since then, I've had a wingman to ride shotgun
-What other careers have you had and do you miss any in particular?
"careers" LOL
Besides the paper route and mowing lawns when I was kid..
My first real job was at Murphy's Mart, a dept store similar to K-Mart.
Started as a stock boy and finished my "career" there as the asst mngr of the sporting goods dept.
That was a pretty cool job, but didn't pay sheet.
After i turned 18, I started my "career" as a mill rat in a forge shop.
an ungodly, inhuman, hot, hard, ball busting job.
But the wages were fair and I was able to afford my own 1968 12 x 60 trailer with expAndo and allOOmeeum car port canopy.
14 months in the forge shop and then I hit the Big Time and got hired in at Chrysler.
I worked in lots of different depts there.
From janitor to quality control to crane operator to welder, to forklift driver to assy line grunt.
Most of time was spent driving forks and other shop heavy equipment..LULL machines, caterpillars, bobcats, "Bugs" (a truck/tractor like the ones that pull around airplanes and luggage trains at the airport).
I was an ace operator and a natural on every piece of equipment inside or outside the shop .
Because of that. for a couple years, my job was to fill in for dudes on vacation and sick leave.
The money was good and the most of the work was easy, but the only thing I miss was driving the heavy equipment.
I was like a kid in a sand box racing around on the bugs, or driving thru the swamp out back on the 4x4 LULL machine or shaking the floor as I rumbled down the isle on the D6 Caterpillar (or Case 850) we used to pull 100,000 pound dies from storage bay to press lines
-At what age will you retire?
when i can't get out of bed in the morning or change my own depends diaper.
Not only am I too dumb and irresponsible with my money...but I "need" to work
If I hit the Pow'r Ball lotto tomorrow, honest to God, I'd still work at something.
-How did you get suckered into those 2100's?
I LOVE my big loud PM.
and it doesn't dump tHeRmOil all over driveways.
-Ever take a favor from a sec8 momma instead of her food stamps?
DUDE...maybe in my drunken debauchery lecherous knucklehead dayz..
many of them are kids with kids and 90% of the ones closer to my age I wouldn't touch with Dannie's pole..
I can bought..I'm easy, but not cheap..
-One gun, one record, one type of Little Debbie snack and one MB member on the Desert Isle with you....

- Did you really rat Waldo out on CCS?
where is that little land locked suffer dude anyway?
How is it that some of the most sh1t stirring dudes get run off when sh1t get sent back at them?
Wal-DOH, you let Crowley run you off?
You candy azz!
Put a bandaid on your bruised ego and get your skinny azz back in the game!
