Not mineโ€ฆ But seriously! How fuckin hard is it to take 265 to 64 to 264? I do it anyway just because the south end of that bridge SUCKS, more backups there than on 75/285 because the roads are trash, narrow, and thereโ€™s always some kind of clusterfuck.. plus it avoids the money grab (toll) The Louisville Can opener has been fed, yet again..

Imagine being completely wrong and then blocking the person so he canโ€™t be proven wrong. Saying this is akin to saying itโ€™s the responsibility of a state DOT to call every truck driver about planned road closures. Itโ€™s our responsibility to check our routes, same as pilots.

Seriously? This is what weโ€™ve come to? When I was growing up, our fortune cookies were written by Confucius-esque writers. Well versed. Inspirational.. Today:

Can anyone give me the dates for this leg of the tournament? 285 is bad enough without international tourism clogging it up even more (no offense, but if you experience 285 like we truckers do, youโ€™d understand)
First look at the menu boards for the #WorldCup inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium. #WeAreAtlanta

Iโ€™m kinda still in shock that Rey let yet ANOTHER promotion unmask him.. I get it, weโ€™ve all seen him without the mask, but thatโ€™s why he left WCW in the first place.

Can we talk about @WWEโ€™s microphone budget for a moment? Do they have some secret contractor that makes these things indestructible? Those mics contain sensitive electronics. The shock sleeves they use can handle the โ€œmic dropโ€ moments, Iโ€™m sure, but being used as a weapon? They donโ€™t hit them with the shock sleeve. They hit them usually with the condenser end.. I accidentally dropped a Shure SMB mic on the condenser, 5 feet onto padded CARPET, when I was setting up my streaming equipment back in my Twitch days before I put the shock mount on it.. I had to replace the damn thing..

โ€œI donโ€™t see a big bad beast, I see a big bad bitchโ€ โ€œWe all know that Rey Mysterio is your father, next week Iโ€™ll introduce you to your daddyโ€ My god Oba was on a roll tonight. For someone who just came to the roster a few weeks ago, this man is on fire. And heโ€™s got it all. Athletic, Charismatic, and so far, amazing on the mic We strapped a rocket to Jeyโ€™s ass, now weโ€™re strapping an ICBM to Oba,s and I fucking love it!

I take EXTREME offense to this AI slop.. I cook ALL the time while driving my truck (Of course, itโ€™s in a slow cooker in the back and I donโ€™t touch it until Iโ€™m parked, but thatโ€™s irrelevant ๐Ÿ˜)

Sitting in Pendleton, IN. Waiting. Load was supposed to be ready today, but got pushed back until tonight. 6k lbs for 4 bucks a mile down to Plant City FL. Iโ€™ll gladly wait.

There used to be a time (especially in WOW) that I would play female toons. Simply because the animations flowed more smoothly. The male models looked and moved too clunky for my taste. Now? I feel the same way. If Iโ€™m into the game, Iโ€™ll play either side, as long as they have fluid animations and look halfway natural. The gameplay itself matters more than the gender of a fucking fictional character.
What type of characters do you generally prefer to play as?๐Ÿš€

Meanwhile, in Iowa - weโ€™re having our own gubernatorial election crisis.. but itโ€™s not fraud, or is it? Democratic (and Self-Proclaimed independent) Candidate Rob Sand wins his primary (unopposed) - no concern there On the other side, Trump-Endorsed Randy Feenstra LOSES his primary race to Zach Lahn, a 3rd generation Iowan. The problem? He doesnโ€™t LIVE in Iowa anymore. His primary residence was moved to Kansas years ago, in order to be near his children (from a previous marriage) He since (and by since, I mean JUST within the requirement to run for office) relocated back to a family farm here in Iowa - just in time to formally file for candidacy. Many are calling Lahn a carpetbagger, fueled by Ag money from large conglomerates like Koch, who have been dying to get their hands on Iowas Ag industry. The General consensus (that Iโ€™ve read - to be clear Iโ€™ve done no official canvassing) is that Rob Sand wins in November, simply because they donโ€™t view Lahn as a ln Iowan anymore. But Iโ€™m curious - would anyone consider this fraud?

Thoughts? I am *Kinda* with OOIDA on this. Are we going to have to make up the difference elsewhere? How much of an offset are we talking?
Everybody trucker wants to pay fewer taxes, right? A bill to scrap the federal heavy truck tax is back. Sounds good on the surface, but small-business truckers still want to know who gets stuck making up the lost money. ๐Ÿ”— landline.media/is-repealing-โ€ฆ

Sitting at our terminal waiting for the shop.. Wheel speed sensor F It seems to either be loose, have some road grime in the tone ring, or maybe a pinched wiring harness. Because every so often, ALL of my safety systems decide to disable, and it seems to be linked to the sensor.. and this is what I get Started out gradually, like when I was doing the ELD crawl, but then it became more frequent. I checked the sensor out myself and tried to trace the wiring to the CPC, but couldnโ€™t come up with anything and as far as I can tell, itโ€™s in there as tight as it can be. Iโ€™ll be the first to admit Iโ€™m not the BEST mechanic - I know my way around things, but when it comes to the electronic components, Iโ€™ll leave it to the professionals.. Besides, 80 bucks an hour labor and an 80% parts discount isnโ€™t that bad.. itโ€™s just the downtime.

After coming off Hometime today, and heading to our Markham terminal, Iโ€™ve come to a conclusion: Indiana and Illinois are in a competition to see who can tear up the biggest sections of a MAJOR interstate, and cause the most chaos. Indiana is cheating though. They brought Missouri in to help..
