Then on top of that, he got on the passenger side, and I got in the driver&#8217;s side (Remember i&#8217;m a blind fellow), and I drove us down the road. *weeeee!* He did the steering part, of course. <br \/>&#8220;Give it some gas.&#8221; <br \/>&#8220;Slow down a little.&#8221; <br \/>&#8220;Not that much.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Supposedly I&#8217;m supposed to get to ride in the truck when he pulls. Should be a blass, though we expecting rain. Just so readers know, that weren&#8217;t no typo. I talk like that. he was even asking if it&#8217;d be possible for me to be the driver when he pulled, him steering of course. No can do, I haven&#8217;t got no license. Not yet. Laugh, it was supposed to be funny. I intend to take my olympus ds30 recorder along, use the internal mono microphone, put it on low microphone attenuation. Should get good results, the truck is a little on the loud side though not too bad. I can just shove it into my pocket and enjoy the fun and have the recording to re-live the tragety. I was just saying to someone, You know we&#8217;re West Virginians. We ain&#8217;t got nuffin better a do an see who can pull a big sled the farthest with our trucks. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><em>Originally posted on <a href=\"https:\/\/valiant8086.livejournal.com\/1025.html\">my LiveJournal<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well.
