life of a truck driver

Hasn't this been a wonderful week? I am glad to see that Rdhzrd is doing fine after his stroke and that really makes this a good week.

The other day I was talking to a fuel desk clerk at a Flying J at an unnamed location and she began to talk about the elections and all the posturing that is going on. What she said got me to laughing, hard, her comment was that there is one dummy in the White House and two more dummies trying to get in it. She wanted to know why we would elect another dummy for president when the one we have is more than enough.

Did any of you see the poll where Congress had a lower approval rate than the president? The president has a 28% approval rating and congress has a 14% approval rating. I almost swallowed my teeth when I read the senate majority leader's response to this. He said that the only reason their approval rating was so low was that the president's rating was low and he, alone, drug down their rating. Wow, I thought that they were individuals in congress and wanted to make sure that they were not connected to the president in any way. So, now they blame their own uselessness, ineptitude and general slothfulness on everyone else but themselves. Oh well talk about having your cake and eating it too.

Darn, I slipped and was not politically correct. Just slap me silly and call me a idiot, I won't do that again.

Everything seems to be going fine for us and hopefully it will continue. I now have my own authority and can say my wife and I own our very own trucking company. I really don't know whether that is a good thing or not but I am going to give it a whirl and see if I get dizzy. The freight rates seem to be quite a bit higher and I don't have anyone taking a huge chunk of the pay. Now whether I am making money or not remains to be seen.

I hope everything is going well for each of you and hope it continues to do so.

Vaya con Dios, mis amigos. Hasta Luego
