I felt like that 2 days ago. We went to the powerlines, and it has been raining here for a couple days straight. My only fatality was my front marker lights. The mud was too heavy and pulled them out of the lenses What a great time. Of course, I have been shoveling out my driveway to appease the neighbors, and it sure is a mess.

I have days like that, but few and far between. I don't like to drive like an *** with other people around because I have a problem with people that drive like an *** around me.....I think that says what I want it to. And I don't take out my aggression in the mud. I don't like mud.


But on rare occasions, like when work sucks (every day), I'll take out the 2wd and go burn off some rubber on the 2 lane to my house. There are some good corners to get sideways on. I get home and I'm tired of sawing on the wheel so I sit and relax and forget about work for 11 hours.


Seriously, I like to drink a case of beer and take the monster truck to town. All the high school girls like it when I pop wheelies with it and drive over their drug-dealers' cars. Then we go cow-tipping and streak through the feedlots.

Wow, you lead a busy life I don't like being around morons either, that is why when I get stupid (for me) I go where the local posers don't go.

Hell, whats a truck for, everyday is a day like that no matter what i feel like or who I'm w/, I'll see a muddy or deep snowy rd, hit the brakes, slide her sideways and hit er screamin, then I'll get stuck, then I'll lock in the hubs, me and the mud will get back in the truck and giver hell till my motor mount and tranny mount break as usual (welded the SOB's solid now), the other day I went to replace brake pads and ended up that both my front U-joints were just about to hammer out of the yokes, so I pulled the hubs, the wheel bearings were ruined/loose, tie rods about ready to fall off, but bailing wire will fix that, the engine is startin to internally rattle (think I got a wrist pin on the way out) but I'll beat the **** outta of it till I send a rod flyin, rebuilding is fun, plus I want a reason for a built up 351, that darn six won't quit. Oh and word to the wise, O'reilly's, them guys will put lifetime warrenty on anything, almost the whole drivetrain is free from now on. Who the hell puts a lifetime warrenty on a U-joint, I'm on my 3rd one in a half a year and my truck ain't lifted or nothin.

Looney bird? Glad I didn't get caught. But we're talking points, not parts.

Sometimes I just get too cocky. My bud finally got his 460 broke in, so, we go play in the dirt. I see some ruts in the weeds and have to try it; dirt bikes don't go there. Part way up I found a ledge, about knee high. Approach, nudge, approach, nudge and over. My buddy had to try, and try, and try, finally makes it.

I'm so happy that my little 360 is out-climbing his big 460 that I forget the nudge part: Approach, stomp, hop, scramble up. At the top I had to shut down, something was wrong. Pop the hood and the battery is laying on the alternator. Look some more and find a bent sector shaft and drag link. JACKAZZ!

At that point I was happy I could drive it home.
