Useless Rants

Where in the cornbread h-ll did all these 18 wheelers come from?   You get on I-10 and it seems like 40% of the vehicles are 18 wheelers.  Recently, coming home from Ga. in La, there where 6 lined up bumper to bumper going about 65.  The last one pulled in front of us to pass.  He wanted to go 66.  By the time he finally got around the other 5 of them, the traffic behind us was stacked up to Mississippi, and my bp was 340 over 329.  Dadgum Hammerhead!

More on Galveston and TX Dot

The misuse of the medical permit ferry line exemptions is ridiculous.

Someone needs to start questioning the permits and arresting people. 

In my simple mind, you should only be able to cut the line, if you are a passenger in an ambulance!!!

More on 18 wheelers.  Figured out why there's so many.  Half of them hauling drugs.

Not all of them hauling full loads and some haul one way and return empty. 

Take I-10 to Los Angeles, out side the city limits there is a sign that says ALL TRUCKS (not personal trucks) exit here. I assume they have warehouses or places to unload their goods to bobtails for in-town delivery. There are no 18 wheelers on the freeways in LA?

Don't know about all older folks, but this heat wears this old man out now.  And man it's hot.  Getting a new porch added on, and grill was out a ways.  Like my steak rare.  It was done before I could turn grill on :) 

I never was a heat guy. I'd starve to death if I had to roof for a living. Did some roofing and I still don't know how those guys do it. 

Friend of mine would order his steak rare. They would say how rare and he would say just cut its horns off and wipe its arse. Embarrassing when standing in line at Western Sizzler. I can eat mine medium but not mooing. Lol.

Here's a useless rant. Why do they put lemon in my water in a restaurant, and why do I have to order water? Used to be a given.

Quite a few years back, I needed to replace my roof.  My FILaw said we could do it.  He was pretty old, so I got to carry all the shingles up the ladder lol.  Well, we did it, and a friend ask what I'd learned.  I told him,  "Here's what I learned.  If someone wants $4000 to roof your house, give them $5000 before they change their mind."

I was at the mall walking and I noticed a man in obvious distress!!!!

Being trained in CPR and First Aid, I was in a quandary. 

Do I provide aid to the man he so desperately needs immediately, or pull out my phone and video???

What would you do?

This story is not true but to ask "Why video"??

Why do young folks at the Mall insist on walking six or eight across shoulder to shoulder and make most folks to move out of the way (unless you're a hard headed old man who'll walk thru them).

That's me too. Lol

Why does my wife insist on telling me how to drive, especially slow down, and give directions, but when it is her turn to drive, first thing she does is ask, "Is this where I turn?"

I cud fill the Forum on this.  But because of the extremely remote possibility that my wife may see this, I'll recuse myself :)
