This nice unknown lady called me some time back out of the blue and axed aksd (sorry Coochie) asked me if she could use my big truck in the new edition of Scholastic Books for kids about TRUCKS! <---That's the title of it. She told me she found it somewhere online in her search and thought mine would make a good candidate for the book. Of course I told her in my best Curly voice (from the 3 Stooges)..."Whyyyy, soitanly !" She told me she would either pay me or send me some books. I told her just send along a few of the books for the kids. Forgot about it until recently the brown truck brought me a little package. It's a mostly pictorial from A to Z of various trucks.

Shoulda (sorry again, Coochie) Should have been loaded with GEO's for maximum effect.

Next time, I'm referring her to JM's mud truck for the cover shot. B-)

Great animation!!!! You are very talented. Truck drivers have sure come a long ways. One time I was running a Box truck in Mississippi and I was running low on fuel. So I stopped at truck stop that had a lot of log trucks and some pretty beat up tractors out side. I went inside to get a couple of coffee and they had a big sign saying "Cappuccino 1/2 priced today" Damn. Cappuccino in Rock Creek Mississippi? They had like a little bar and a few tables you could sit at. While I was drinking my coffee, a couple of log truck drivers were talking about not being able to run Flash videos on a Linux platform. :banana :banana :banana

Duct tape heals all wounds

"T" is for "Truck", "K" is for "Kik". See Kik's truck. Kik's truck is long. See Kik start his truck! Now Kik's truck is "long gone" :lol
