So I decide to drive trucks for a living. Better than being a grease monkey. Travel at someone else’s expense, and a paycheck to boot! What a hoot! I was already married and had a baby, and unable to keep any job I could do. Our parents were helping us when I decided to try… Continue reading Twin Sticks on a Grade
