Lloyd's Web Journal

Ex- Photographer and now a Truck Driver. Currently I am an Over-The-Road Truck Driver. I originally started driving trucks for a living in 1968.

In-between 1968 and now, I:

Went into the US Air Force in 1970 and got out again in 1974.
Was pretty fair at Chess for much of my young life.
Was briefly a Professional Skydiver.
Went into Professional Photography in 1974.
Have worked as a licensed security agent.
Have been a real estate salesman.
Became a Commodore 64 expert in the 1980s.
Enjoyed sail boats.
Enjoyed mountain life.
Picked up a fair amount of knowledge about computers.
Returned to truck driving in 1997.

I have pulled van trailers, flat-beds, end-dumps, and roll-offs since 1997. Mainly it has been flatbeds. Although I am currently pulling reefers.

Was an Owner/Operator Truck Driver for a few years.
And during the summer of 2006, I drove a straight truck in the Oil Fields.
Have become well rounded....

Here, I usually post my thoughts about the things in my life, when I have time. Usually it will be about trucking, computers, Linux, traveling, Wyoming, and things in the news, or just about anything in my life.

Note: I rarely discuss photography here since the field is changing faster then anyone can keep up with. My old 4x5 view camera is simply out of place....

You are welcome to read anything here.
I hope that you are entertained.

Traditional Republicans Afraid of Internet, it seems...

Traditional Republicans seem to be afraid of the Internet.

Why?

The Internet and Blogs are made up of the average person with a computer. In most cases, their blogs are just like this one. And this one represents my personal opinions and ideas. Most blogs on the Internet are simply the free expression of the average person.

In the news this morning they have been talking about how the democrats are courting and paying homage to Bloggers, while the Republicans have been denouncing them, or us.

President Bush actually made a speech against bloggers, grouping all bloggers as left-wingers.

Well, Bush has been the worst idea that this country has ever had.
However, that is just my opinion. I don't feel that way about all republicans.

I don't even think that everything that Bush has done is all bad!

Just most of it....

But take heart everyone out there with a blog. You, we, are being noticed by both sides. I'm just hoping that Bush is the only idiot on the republican side who thinks that the average person's opinion doesn't count.
