No, I don't own my rig LOL I'm talking about working for the wrong trucking company. There is a lot out there that isn't "common" knowledge. The work laws governing truck drivers have some weird twists to them.
Happy for you that you're making some dough at Dominos (rhymes rhymes rhymes).

DC, maybe, just maybe this will make you feel a little better, gas prices in Slovenia:
1 gallon:
95 octane 1,187 € /l x 3,8 = 4,51 € = 7,1197 $
98 octane 1,198 € /l x 3,8 = 4,55 € = 7,1810 $
Diesel 1,298 € / l x 3,8 = 4,93 € = 7,7808 $

The fact that I HAD two 7th row tics and was going to take my nephew to see the mighty JP but could not make it home in time due to work over in Africa. I had to get one of my friends to take him and just EAT $280. worth of pure badass. Instead I get to sit on a boat (which I'm still here) for another week and wait 'till the job is done to go home. Talk about pissed off....Of course those in charge don't give a $#!+ and I had told them this MONTHS ago! No JP, no H&H and no Motorhead. Just work offshore, and that is that.!! .......................drag.....................      |

I'm actually okay with him going back next season...as long as he watches the budget. I've just been so burned out with everything. I spent 11 straight days at the hospital taking care of him. Then when we got home I had to do that AND work. The accident was a month ago and only now am I starting to get my energy back. Still need to write all those thank-you notes.
He can do almost everything himself now. When he figured out how to tie his shoes, I said boy am I gonna miss that metaphor LOL. |

on the other hand, if he were to quit now, its because he lacked ability. where as he can go back and conquor the bike, or decide that its time to hang it up, on his terms. being forced into anything sucks. if he can ride, he can decide not to, but if he quits because of a crash, thats damaging to his psyche.
dunno if this made sence, I know what I mean, not how to say it.

1. The Hellion
2. Painkiller's drum intro.
3. Living After Midnight's riff.
4. Guitar Solo from Sinner.
5. Opening note of Turbo Lover.
And I think it's a GOOD fucking list too because it's all true! How many of you remember other parts more so then those things I listed? |

Well....I am have been pissed off most of the day that I am still here at home! Guess I am not making that back to back Pittsburgh / Dallas run.
Ah well, probably for the best but still BURNS me to be sitting on two JP tickets thanks to a bastard who promised to go. Still waiting for him to call back to see when we are leaving. Grrrrr! |

He's a racer. You aren't going to take that out of him and you shouldn't want to. It's part of who he is and why you were drawn to him. It's a lot more than just the "at the track" part of him too. Please don't push to take this away from him. You don't want to deal with the resentments that will result. Believe me, I know about giving up dreams and it breeds some very deep resentments.

This weekend he wants to go watch motorcycle racing AT THE SAME FUCKING RACETRACK and then stop by the RV dealership to look at a trailer for next season.
I don't know what to say. I don't even want to think about this. |

To play the devil`s advocate here. I left the pavement at an accelerated rate in 2003,broke the frame of the bike when it landed. I on the other hand kept flying,which was cool,but the landing was alittle tough!! I broke my wrist,dislocated my left shoulder, severly bruised the right and lost a toenail (don`t ask!!). No road rash as my gear done it`s job. For a rider that loves tio ride,a get off is just a temporary set back. I`m still blazing trails all over the place!! He`s just ready to bite that dog back is all!!

| There are some awesome photos of exposed fractures and crushed balls on the internet, all you have to do is search and show them to him. |

| Had the vip gold experience at Nissan Paillion in VA --was told Priest would play from 9:30 pm til 11:45 pm --11pm came around & they did You've Got Another Thing Comin' & as soon as that song was done they took their bows ( except I didn't see KK ) & then the lights came up ---I was ready to head bang for another 45 mins--don't get me wrong I was just glad to be there but no Diamonds N Rust--no Victim Of Changes --no Headin' Out To The Highway--no Livin' After Midnight --it's not the Priest's fault VA has a stupid noise ordinance law & I guess you can't play Livin' After Midnight when you're made to leave the stage at 11 pm---just needed to vent --Want my 45 minutes of Priest !!! |

PNC art center NJ, setlist cut short by 5 songs Because of Holmdels bullshit noise ordinance. Less than an hour and a half of Priest? WTF? PNC's security sucked. How could I miss most of 4 songs from the second row center? Answer! a bunch of drunken idiots trying to get to the stage that were trampling everyone in site including Me and my Wife as security is watching this happen and shrugging his shoulders as I'm telling him to do something about it. And then 4 idiots get past security and get on stage during the concert. Nothing against Priest this was out of their control , But alot against PNC art center, This was the Worst Priest show ever at PNC and I've seen them in concert Here in the past few years and had a Great time. I've seen them elsewhere and had a Great time. I've been a true fan for 32 years and have always enjoyed their concerts. I have to agree the sound was Great . The meet and greet was a cattle call at best. Don't bring a camera, we'll post the picture on our website for you, OK ,went to see my picture with the band and low and behold it's not there, Nor are alot of fans pictures who paid their good hard earned money. Would I ever pay $400.00 for a ticket with a meet and greet again? NO F--king way. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, I rate this concert at PNC a -2.

Regarding the Masters Of Metal Tour:
What pisses me off about the tour is they put 3 fucking headliners on the same bill and they put the show in Camden of all places! They could've just as easily put the show across the river in Philadelphia at the Wachovia Center, where they would have had a frigging 15,000+ audience and no fucking noise ordinance! Fucking Live Nation! |

I've decided to try it again Saturday on my work computer. My "Big Daddy Dell". My boss asked me what I wanted, so I told him. It only cost him $2500 ! Hey, I gotta play Trackmania while I work. Let's get our priorities straight ! Plus I was reminded of my anal tendencies ( let it go Guido ) when it comes to anything creative. Bit of a perfectionist.
