Good morning friends. I think you'll enjoy this little "epistle": When +1 and I returned home from Fall Colors last year, we took turns driving on I-81. We took with us our cb radios and from time to time chatted with truckers, etc. on the highway (interstates are so BORING). We were in northern Virginia near Harrisonburg when I spotted one of those big trucks the truckers call wiggle-waggles (two trailers) and thought of one of my brothers-in-law who drives one of those things from Harrisonburg to Lybg and back a couple of times a day -- it was his company logo as well. SO, I picked up the cb since +1 was driving and called to the truck (using the logo name) -- the driver looked just like my bro-in-law: he chatted back, said he was not my bro-in-law, but knew him and would tell him he saw me on the road. Well, I never heard anything from Bill, my bro-in-law, so I forgot about it. Last week Bill called -- he said the guy I'd talked to had seen him in the terminal that day and asked him, "Bill, have you got a blonde sister in law that cruises in a little teeny-tiny sports car?" Of course, Bill said yes, why -- the trucker said I'd scared him to death when I radioed him because until he heard me say I'm beside you, he had NO IDEA my car was there. Anyway, 5 months later the guy remembered the incident and told my bro-in-law about seeing me. Bill told me to really really be careful because our cars are practically invisible to truckers. 'member this when you're on the freeways, interstates, etc.

Good Morning, Y'all! Thanks for the heads up, Val. I avoid the interstate as much as possible, but there are alot of trucks out there. Not many people on the past few days...not posting anyway. Marcus posted to his "Goodbye S2Ki" thread, so you might want to take a look at that. You probably already know that he and Quik S2K were removed as mods last week. Caused quite a ruckus!

Preparing to go to court tomorrow for the d-i-v-o-r-c-e. Takes about four minutes. Ex wants to have a divorce drink tomorrow night. Sounds strange, doesn't it? But we are friends and are finishing up our last joint tax return.
