On that note here is something I would like to share with everyone. The Dangerous Cliff T'was a dangerous cliff as they freely confessed though to walk near its edge was so pleasant. But over its edge had slipped a Duke, and it had fooled many a peasant. The people...

Pappy Thanks for the great post about your father. I'm sure he was a great man. My father loved trucking so much that he wouldn't leave the road. My fahter was leased on to TST when he got out of his C-Unit to go into his house to get his com card and died in the doorway of his house. My...
