In an ASTRO Jetson voice (the dog) “RUT ROW”!!!
There will be Rioting in the streets in Michigan tonight!!
(and they probably don’t need any extra beers to egg them on!)
(I for one could grab a slice (or two) of pizza and a beer and settle back and relax for the evening.)

Evening all…
Just got back from three weeks out on the road, roaming mostly in the south, spending a lot of time in Mississippi and Georgia, hauling paper, Gators, glass, beer, and building supplies. Today was a 500-mile day, ran from Janesville, WI to the Menards distribution center in Eau Claire, swapped trailers, and made a store delivery in Johnson Creek before coming to Burlington for a few days rest.
Will talk more tomorrow, really tired from being woke up at 3am this morning…
…That really sounds like a much, much full day…
Oh yeah, do it in bumper to bumper traffic, everyone travelling for the weekend…

ps - Lurch came home with a big OW-EEE today. Got attacked by a Grease Monkey in the shop. Back bumper is toast. The mothership is gonna have fun with this Tuesday morning after the coffee hits.
Good Sunday morning everyone. Coffee is brewing and the juice has been squeezed. I’ll leave the cooking to someone else though.
morning
how about some eggs bacon and waffles??
stay safe

Well, since CW is otherwise occupied right now, guess I’ll put my apron on and start
taking care of the orders. (I was doing a bit of maintenance on our “O” Scale layout)
She should be in shortly to take care of things.
Mudchicken, they make “Band-Aids” that big?![:-,]
(I just hope no one other than Lurch was hurt!)
Lance, thanks for making the coffee and fixing the juice this morning! And Mutt, thanks for making breakfast this morning. You did extremely well on the eggs and waffles!! (And Mutt’s right: I have been very busy/occupied this morning. Getting everything together and beginning preparations for the LABOR DAY COOKOUT for our Diner patrons, and any guests who come by tomorrow.)
For our SUNDAY DINNER, I have fixed country fried steak, steak fries, mashed taters w/milk gravy, green beans, broccoli, brussels sprouts, creamed corn, biscuits, cornbread and crescent rolls. We also have cantaloupe and watermelon, chocolate cake, white cake w/red, white and blue icings, and apple, cherry and peach cobblers.
Randy, glad you got a chance to stop in last night. Just be careful out on the road, o.k? And come back as often as you can!!
Enjoy your Sunday Dinner and have a great afternoon!!
I’m definitely coming over for the country fried steak with steak fries, green beans and crescent rolls. [dinner]
By the way, keep out the beer–Michigan fans are really depressed over that loss yesterday from what I’ve read online. [:(]
At the moment, the back end of Lurch looks almost as ugly as the front end. I don’t know if Fix Or Repair Daily even has started spare parts into the distribution network yet.
The only thing damaged/injured beyond “Lurch” is the shop manager’s pride. I did kid him about not being able to shove the whole piece of crap over a very high cliff . He now hates the truck almost as much as I do.
Afternoon everyone…
Thanks, CW, I get in as often as I can, but I really need to consider buying a laptop computer to take with me on the road so I can stay in touch better. Truck is parked untill Tuesday morning, then back out on the road for two to three weeks again, can’t stay out too much longer or too much mail piles up at the house.
Mudchicken, Kenworth is not too much better off right now, have heard reports of the new T660s with Cat motors catching on fire because the new emissions equipment is burning the underside of the cab and sleeper floor. We drivers do not like that particular model anyway, there is no interior room, especially for some of us that are fairly large.
Be back later for lunch and dinner…
Fix Or Repair Daily, Found On Road Dead…Don’t make me even think of one of the other ones, it WILL be censored!![:-,]
If you all feel that way, guess it wouldn’t go over a cliff if you pushed it![}:)][:D]
MC sorry to hear about your luck.the best trucks wear bowties.anyway we made it to G+G house.we are being summoned for supper.heads up chicago there is a nice warbonnet(bnsf 100) coming your way on a grain train.
stay safe
Joe
Give me one with Ram’s horns and a Hemi…and that little SRT package![8D]
Unfortunately, with a clueless beancounter left in charge of company fleet vehicles, what you get is not much.
Look on the bright side, if it follows all the other Ford trucks…use the cruise control enough, and you can have a nice bonfire to boot!
Anyone got marshmallows?[:D]
So dar I am happy with my Saturn, a reliable car that gets me from point A to point B
If I want a pickup sometime soon I would be in the market for a Toyota Tundra.
