the beer would have put him at fault automatically... atleast in OK it does. I imagine most other states are similar.

Glad you're OK. It's amazing how many injuries a person can receive in an accident and never really hit anything. (With their car anyways!) Now could you find some time tomorrow to run that thing by a garage and get the blinker fixed. Oh, probably wouldn't hurt to clean the seats a tad too.

Evening all. Dang cold here what happened to the spring weather? Wind and blowing snow, must be the in like a lamb our like a lion thingy.

Glad to hear that you and the truck are all right.

Hat, good thing you kept your composure and didn't make him eat the beer can.
Should have called the local constabulary and I think they would have something to say about the open liquor.

Chocolate covered crickets are suppose to be delicacy's, along with ants. Not for me thanks.

Have fun and DRIVE SAFE.

If (if) it was my fault, I would have gotten charged with the accident, but he would have gotten dui and contributing to the accident. Would have been his fault all day long.

Funny enough, I was never scared. Just mad. Stupid imaginary blinker...

I was thinking about it. I'm not that big of a guy, 6' even and a buck 80 on a good day, but I towered over this guy. I was packin, too. (redneck buttwhippin stick, not gun) I just wanted to leave, cause if he tried to blame that on me one more time, I was gonna let him have it. I was having a hard time dealing with stupidness. You're right, I should have called the cops. On the other hand, I was about to be late for my son's baseball practice, and I did not want to fear the wrath of the queen for being late...

Nother fun filled day... Goin to the gym...

Nice "almost-spring" morning in DC.
Temps already in the mid 50s.

Honey-Buns are now crumbs.
Cup of coffee number one and two, drained.
Gotta go and gas up the work truck, and get the material list together for today's tasking.
Going to spend the day in another facility that doen't exist......

Honey buns.......I haven't had a good honey bun in forever. Hat, it would have been funny if you had just took his beer can and smashed it on your forehead.

Good Morning Guys.. kinda my Monday today, missed work yesterday.
I think I mentioned my daughter and her friend driving down to Athens Ga last Friday?? well.......
the trip down tehre went well for them, they took one wrong turn and wound up in Charleston.....
But they made it to Athens w/o any real problem tho...then the fun begins!!!

Coming back via Greyhound, the daughter missed her connection in Memphis..and Greyhound tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable......
Soooooo I get a call at 0500 yesterday morning froma slightly paniced girl, "what do I DO!!!"
She had enough $$ for a ticket to St. Louis, so I plan on meeting her there and hit the road at 0630....
0700 get a call.. "the ticket I could get was stand-by , and no theres no room on teh bus"....soooo, I get to road-trip to Memphis, get there at around 1300 and find her, learn her luggage got put on the bus to St Louis ..so off to St Louis we go! Finally got home around midnight and got back up at 0300 for work today......
my seat pockets are draggin' under my heels......

Disgruntledhat, I'm impressed you didn't at least play drill instructor on him. "what where you thinking. No you were not thinking were you maggot. You little (insert own expletive) now drop and give me 50 before I have you running the length of this road with your little car strapped on your back and my truck running beside with the exhaust pipe pointed at your head"

If it doesn't exist then can you admit that it doesn't exist? Because if you do admit that it doesn't exist, is that admittance that it does exist? I guess I'm about to be the DTR philosopher.
Hauled horses out to the arena this morning and it rained last night apparently, so it was too late to turn back and take them back home, so I pulled in and had to hunt down a stall (the ones I was keeping them in had feeders and water), the empty ones I had to rig up water and feeders. Then run down to the corner store for breakfast and the traffic was thick at the intersection I pulled into, and wound up having to take a different route to the college. So I wound up being 15 minutes late for my 8am, and with his class you don't walk in if he has started talking, 15 minutes you can be shot, so I'm sitting here checking emails and about to read the book for that class.
