Midnight in the Diner: Tales from the Road

Agreed. Nescafe Classico Dark is the best instant coffee. About 2 decades ago Nescafe tried this weird deal. Not sure if ever sold here but in Scotland they had this can that used some mechanical/chemical device so that you could pop it and it would heat up the coffee. It "worked" but never really got super hot but did get warm. But it was waaay to milky for my tastes. A weird thing though and hilarious commercial that is not politically-correct.

Hahaha - what the hell?! Funny!

When it comes to coffee, you are loaded for bear. The sweet pickles and peppers are a great idea to avoid the pastry belly...its amazing the things I am learning on your thread.

I'm glad to share! Oh yeah, I learned the hard way to stock up because there have been way too many times that I've had to shut down at a customer and then wake up without a morning cup. Never Again! 😃

Not today, Toots, sorry. Today, tomorrow, and Saturday are long days with not much time.
After that, if they don't put a load on me, I'll have something cool!  😎

I-40 westbound through the Great Smoky Mountains, from North Carolina to Tennessee.

I had more but the file size maxed out at two.

I'm guessing that's like an MRE chemical heater and if so you're right, not so hot at all...

Thanks Metron! It's been a real pleasure to have met you, my friend. Hahaha - I still get a kick out of when I told Bart that I wasn't worried about someone messing up my thread because you'd run them off!

Yo da best man!

That looks like it'd be a bear in the snow and ice season.

It can get rough, for sure!

Did you ever watch Ice Road Truckers?

Every once in a while but I have noooo desire to do that! Do you know what I was thinking about doing? They need truck drivers in the Middle East to drive in those convoys.
It pays 250,000 a year and you can sign for three years. Also, if you die they provide 100,000 life insurance.
It's awful tempting sometimes...

I had a Middle Eastern friend in college that told me driving on sand is much deadlier than driving on ice.
