Truckin' Bozo Promotes Free Republic

The Truckin' Bozo Radio Network ^

[hardhead]

Last night Steve Somers of the Truckin' Bozo Radio Network promoted the Free Republic. He read the mission statement of FR to the thousands of truckers nationwide who listen to the show for news about the industry, conditions, and discussion of current events. The Truckin' Bozo is carried on AM and the XM satellite radio system.

I agree.

They work long and hard hours driving through the night, winter snow conditions, etc., at a great cost to their personal lives.

Folks, give them courtesy on the road like a quick flash of your high beams once they pass you so they can pull in front of you.

This kindness repeats itself in their lives.

[Lancey Howard]

re: your post #8
Bump to that.

[leadpenny]

LOL. I picked up on your sarcasm on this and the other thread. Not your morning I guess. :)

[humblegunner]

Darn right.
If you have it in your home, it was moved by a truck.

Period.

Your groceries, electronics, furniture, books, cleaning stuff, everything.
Even your vehicles and the fuel they use.
God Bless the truckers.

[TomB]

Not your morning I guess. :)

I'M A TRUCK
(Bob Stanton)
« © '71 Central Songs »

Hello I'm a truck
You've heard songs about truck drivers many times their stories told
How they pulled out of Pittsburg for six days on the road
Bout the Feather River Canyon and climbin' the old grapevine
That old roadhouse down in Texas and the girls they've left behind
You've heard their tales of daring and I think that's just fine
But if you can spare a minute well I'd like to tell you mine
There'd be no truck drivers if it wasn't for us trucks
No double clutching gear jaming coffee drinking nuts
They'll drive their way to glory and they have all the luck
There'd be no truck drivers if it wasn't for us trucks

Well there he sits in that cafe drinking coffee and telling lies
Prob'ly telling 'em how to talk that hill ten miles back
How telling 'em how he missed a gear and that Volkswagen full of hippies
Passed us like I was sitting up on jacks or how we took that curve over on 66
Han't-a been for me hanging on the shoulder we'd both wound up in the ditch
If we're on time he takes the credit if we're late I get the blame
Up those hills with shutters open my stacks are running flame
My stack a running red light sucking diesel from the tanks
I take him south and bring him back without a word of thanks
So now you've heard my story and I guess it's my tough luck
There'd be no truck drivers if it wadn't for us trucks
There'd be no truck drivers...

Look at him sipping coffee and flirtin' with that waitress
And where do you think he left me that's right next to cattle truck (mooo)
Why couldn't we have put me next to that little pink mack sittin' over there
Gosh she's got pretty mud flaps and talk about stracked they're both chromed
Well he'll be coming out in a minute and he'll get that bar
And he'll go around and beat on my tires
You know for two pints of diesel I'd have a flat on the inside dual
Ha that fixed him I never did like the way he drives anyhow
Thainks he's God's gift to waitresses he never gives 'em a tip
Well I know what he's gonna do now he's gonna take out
The tape cartridge of Back Owens and play it again
I don't know why he don't get a Merle Haggard tape

[hardhead]

NOW I remember the song!

[1john2 3and4]

lol! yup! that's it! ive loved that song for years! (wow, that was quick! - now, about that "hey binladen".....?)

[LowOiL]

"ummm, and that's a GOOD thing?"

Most Truckers are not the politically correct masses of the general public. Most have a firm grip on reality. Besides imagine what a great outreach program it would be to have FR stickers on a few thousand trucks traveling the country. I welcome Truckin Bozo fans full heartedly.

Ya know... they are such good guys they don't do it for the recognition. Ain't that great? Glad your daughter was OK.

[OperationFreedom]

but in many places the materials for making juice was hauled by truck... at least partways.

[JavaJumpy]

Very cool, thanks for posting! I often listen to them. Truckers can be a source of great information and often bring up valid points not brought up by typical callers on other radio talk shows.

Welcome to FR!

[B4Ranch]

All of the parts and pieces necessary to make electricity are hauled by truck to the appropriate places. Next?
