November winds of change, banter, and a surprise whoopee cushion

Way to go, think this is totally warranted in this circumstance. still to this day i see 60% of the driver i pass on the road in trucks holding phones to their heads.

Re Hand held cell phone use... I see many four wheelers texting and driving and holding cell phones up to their ears especially in the afternoon rush hours and still see a few 18 wheelers & straight truck drivers from other companies using hand held cell phones. They will surely howl when they get caught.

Sitting down in Louisiana waiting to get a run and I am at #2 position. Overcast down here and cooler than normal with rain expected later today. However it is still warmer than Michigan. I really like it down here especially when it is snowing back home in Michigan.

This week seems to be slow at the moment....with that in mind, after I unload tomorrow, thinking of going home for a few days to empty out the van of un-needed things and catch up on the mail...install the slushbusters...make sure I am prepared for the winter....Do yard work...spend some time with Trina..relax and get out of the van...hang Christmas lights...Tis the season to be jolly, Fa-La- La-La, la-La-La!
