    Default My Chevy Diesel pulling a tractor trailer uphill in the snow

    We had a shipment going out today, and the driver showed up on our show filled road with exactly one tire chain. We're at the bottom of a pretty steep hill, and he got himself buried. The guy looked like he was 18 years old with his cap on sideways and has pants hanging down. After watching him struggle for 30 minutes, we took pity on him and I pulled him up the 1/2 mile hill with my GMC. Pretty funny to watch. The strap was one of those stretchy deals (Thanks Zack O for rolling in with it with zero notice), something I'd never used before. I'll be buying one tomorrow.

    I like it. Saia, not sure about their drivers sometimes. Not the smartest bunch. (my experience)

    I cant imagine taking a semi down your streets on a good day.. Crazy.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
