Yo Tom!, the only good thing about cell phones is that they are slowing down the traffic, instead of going 75 + around 240 they are slowing down with every call they get on their cell phone. Now they only go about 45mph., if they are on the phone.If they are speeding they have not gotten a call yet.

Country's 'Guitar Man' Reed dies
Reed is best-known in the UK for appearing in Smokey and the Bandit
Singer-turned-actor Jerry Reed, known as "The Guitar Man" of country music, has died aged 71.
Born in Atlanta, Georgia, Reed released more than 40 albums over a long career that started when he was just 18.
After scoring US hits like Amos Moses and When You're Hot, he broke
into cinema in the 1970s, appearing in all three Smokey and the Bandit
movies.
The star, who had quadruple bypass surgery in 1999, died on Monday of complications arising from emphysema.
He had recently been cared for in a hospice, Country Music Television in Nashville reported.
Sony BMG Nashville Chairman Joe Galante called Reed a larger-than-life personality.
"Everything about Jerry was distinctive - his guitar playing, writing, voice and especially his sense of humour," Galante said.
"I was honoured to have worked with him."
Reed's booking agent, Carrie Moore-Reed (not a relation), called
the singer-songwriter "one of the greatest entertainers in the world".

Tom this has got to be the best I saw while driving down the interstate , a car with flashers on in the hammer lane , when it got up beside me there was another car pushing him with his bumper! I mean come on now!! If the car is not running don't drive it! Much less on the interstate AND the non driving car was giving hand signals out the window on which lane to move to. They past me going 75 miles an hour!!
DUH, Drive Don't Drive at the best!!!

Hey Tom it's me Sonny using my husbands account to post this blog, {Appropriate} . Had to tell you we both "Me and Husband" saw this interview together this evening and really did enjoy it.
A man that is being hit hard with fuel cost is VERY much so Determine to keep running and then to go back a few years WOW! he is truly an amazing man. I would say to him to never quit either unless it gets so bad, your money you make goes right back into all the trucks expenses. UNLESS he just loves driving, than go for it:):)
Rock And Roll Barry Owens!!

To all you people that drive at night,
You know that little handle on your left hand side
of your steering wheel?
That my friends is a dim switch.
Please use it.
For us truckers that have our hands full as it is and for you to not dim your lights is very unsafe an not polite.
We have a name for these people,
but can't post it on the blogs.

Tom I got this sticker from my home owners insurance Co.
an it said
{Please don't hit me I am not 100% sure of my coverage}
I figured if I put this on the tail end of my truck I might be safe,
If i could get 3 more I would be fully covered,
You think?

This is no April Fools, As of April 1st to April 3rd
there will be {Some} major Trucking Lines and Owner Operator shut downs
due to high cost in fuel. They will be out protesting in full force or
a stay at home. To fuel up a tank of gas for trucks will cost $800.00,
and depending on how far we drive it can add up fast. So for all you
shoppers if your local store shelves are empty you will no why. 3 days
without {some} major tuckers on this shut down will make a impact on
your goods. Will this help? Maybe or Maybe not, it might get someones
attention.

Yes I can see right down into your automobile, and for all you people that like to drive High, may I suggest not to do it period, but if it is a must do, then you need to roll your stuff before you hit the roads. I have seen MANY times people driving with their knees in order to roll their smoke with a tray on their lap,
