I love this time of year at night or early morning.. Biggest Buck I ever saw was running in front of my truck one morning on the way to work. He only has about 15 acres of woods that he lives in, but there is no hunting pressure here in the city.. He was just massive at every angle.. So glad I didnt hit him..
I hear 'ya! I have a feeling if I had hit this monster, he would have likely creamed my Explorer far more than it would have creamed him.

I hit an 8 pointer last year. Excuse me...the deer ran into my drivers side tire and swung around into my door and demolished it. Revenge was sweet when a few weeks later we thawed the meat and ate him!

Morning All!

paperwork this morning...fun, fun fun!

dirty jobs? I drove a septic tank pumping truck one summer...we had to do the grease trap at a fried foods restaurant on the beach...the boss always met me there to help with the lid and then we would go inside for lunch...usually we smelled pretty bad.

We were pumping out a tank one hot day and my boss had the hose in his hands and the hose hit the bottom of the tank and stuck, he pulled on the hose to free it, lost his balance and fell in the tank!!

The owner hosed him down while I finished pumping the tank...

The worst smell was some of the small towns had open pits where we dumped the contents of the truck.

Heres a pooper truck story for you...................
A good friend of mine had a job driving a pooper truck and servicing forest service outhouses. One day he was sucking out a outhouse when the hose was ripped from his hands and out the door with great force, he looked to see the pooper truck rolling away on its own.........He did not set the brake, the truck rolled about 75ft away down a embankment, and slowly tipped over on its side. Thus, the end of his pooper truck career................A local pooper truck outfit has this slogan painted on their trucks, "Yesterdays meals on wheels!"

Cool pic Brendan.

Tom, I happen to think I am pretty damn sane, as far as women go.

Cleaning jail cell toilets? My dad used to work maintenance for a big county in Colorado, and that included the jail. He had to go into the cells with the inmates on occasion, usually because they flushed a bunch of stuff down the toilet trying to make trouble.

I'm not a big fan of axle grease either.
