Bring on the Snow...Frosty for president....Get out of my way

I was looking at the weather channel tonight, trying to figure out what is going to happen over the next 36 hours. Then I checked out the weekend forecast and I saw something that was very depressing. The length of the day tomorrow is 9 hours and 17 minutes, followed by 9 hours and 16 minutes on Saturday. I am here to tell you the lack of daylight sucks! I am at work longer than the day is long. Not the best statement I have ever made.
The good news is it is going to snow. Normally I would not care for the snow, but my truck has not been through the snow yet and it needs to be broken in. I heard maybe a foot by Monday in the "snowbelt" or where those of us are that get lake effect. I say bring it on! I want to put it in 4 low and grind it out just for the hell of it.

Speaking of snow. Why don't we put frosty the snowman in the oval office. I am so tired of listen to Bush talk, or rather try to talk. It isn't even that he never makes a point that bugs me as it is that he sounds like he has trouble getting 3 words out with out an "ugh" or "um" he is an idiot. Some one needs to adjust his head so those mickey mouse ears can get in some better reception. He represents all of us when he travels to other countries. Honestly what would you be thinking if he was sitting next to you trying to have a conversation about tariffs against North Korea? You would think, "what the hell is he trying to say?" I am sure the Iraqis think they speak better english than he does. I think he would sound better frozen in snow...

While I am ranting. If you are driving on the express way and you decide less than 70 mph is ok in the left hand lane you should be pulled over and beat until you wet yourself. I am so tired of people not paying attention to what they are doing. They call it the "fast lane" for a reason. We should all take it upon ourselves to flag one of these people down drag them out of their car and explain what giant pain in the ass's they are. When they look at you like they don't understand or the look of they are better b/c they are abiding the law take a good swing and smack it right off of their pathetic little faces. Swing again if it makes you feel better. I don't get road rage, but if my mother could hear what I say to other drivers while I am driving she would laugh, laugh her ass off! I sound like a sailor or a Bosnian truck driver depending on my day.

Sorry I haven't posted allot lately. I have been crazy busy. I will try to do better. I am trying to get this brokerage off the ground and running.

Stay tuned. All this driving has given me lots of time to think about things that piss me off and I have a list I keep in my truck. I am going to start sharing.

Update...

So I said I would post an update and I am doing so. I got a job that started last Monday. It was for an automotive company. I hated it. It was nothing like the automotive that I was used to. It was slow sloppy and in-efficient. So I got another off to work in Chicago, nah, traffic. I had an offer in the ATL, no thanks. So my buddy offered me a job doing sales for his trucking company full time and I took it. I have to say I love it. We have so much fun. It is fast paced, lots of road time, schmoozing with potential clients. It is allot of fun. I have helped set up the office network, ran dispatch. It is consuming and fast paced with enough multi tasking to keep me busy. The hours are good and it is giving me a chance to reconnect with my friend and family and not work like a dog.

With the first pick in the 2007 NFL draft the Detroit Lions will take........

I hate Jon Kitna, he has got to go. Lions need to let someone else try throwing the ball. I suggest Roy Williams, then maybe he will shut the fuck up! This could have been an easy win, but no! Why do it easy when you can lose ugly. Lions fans we are in the race for Brady Quinn. That's right we are trying to acquire the worst record in the league. Jon Kitna needs to go. I had high hopes next April we we could add a defensive stud, but we need a QB more. I really really hate Jon Kitna.

I am sorry I haven't posted lately. I will post again soon to update what is going on in my life.
