reenactorNet

This would be the blog of one Marshall J. Wise or "Marsh" to my friends -- it's "Marshall" to the company or others who know me not. If you are friend, then 'tis Marsh. Anywho, this be just my thoughts and bloviations on life, reenacting, the world and other thoughtless provoking crap. Yes, I am a reenactor, yes, I own reenactor.Net... Remember: work to live, not live to work.

*(and yes, look up the word bloviate on google)

Hmmm, "about me" huh? It's kind of boring. I'm a truck driver hauling U.S. Mail for a Postal Contractor. Reenacting Lessee, I am into reenacting... WWI, WWII and Roman. Doing the first two, I portray a German (no, I don't care one bit if you're offended), in the last, I do a 1st Century Roman impression. I find the Roman Empire fascinating. r.Net I have owned reenactor.Net (the biggest reenactor website on the planet) since 1998 and am constantly trying to make it better (for that, I really need 37 hour days). One good thing about r.Net is it allows me to meet and know a lot of really great and nice people who's knowledge just leaves me floored. How I think... Do you really care about how I think? I'm kind of a dork... If you read the blog, you'll see how I think (or don't think, if you listen to a lot of people).

Truck Stop Women

Now there's a loaded topic... Women at truck stops and no, were not discussing "lot lizards" (hookers). The truck stops I go to seem to go through a lot of women working there and I can bet why. Being around most of these billy bobs would be damned scary! Alone in a truck for weeks at a time, the only women they see are the girls at the fuel desk or in the restaurant... you KNOW these guys are hitting these girls up CONSTANTLY. Ack! And the thing is, they think they're suave, debonair, a rogue... just irresistible to the girls... Actually, what they are is, again, a lot of bit scary.

It's like going to Hooters... ever been? Holy crap, those women could have a guy eating fried dog shit and PAYING them for the privilege of doing it. No, I am not kidding. They come, they sit down AT YOUR TABLE and talk to you... "Oh wow, so you're a proctologist... that's SO cool! What can I get you? Can we start you off with some wings?" Guys eat this stuff up. $20. tips are nothing. It's almost the same at a truck stop, it's just the women aren't wearing shorts and a low cut t-shirt nor sitting at your table. Aii carumba!!

A Damned Interesting Investment Idea
Here's an idea a Hooters Truckstop... LOL! Actually, it'd make money, scads of it, but all that money would all be used up cleaning up the blood and damage from crazed truck drivers in lust. What carnage it would be :-o

Anyway, the women at truck stops, for the most part, TRY to be nice to drivers... well, at first they do, but after a few months, Wow! They can sure be nasty (think of just how nasty a woman can be when she wants to be). But really, is there a place for some rude-ass wench at a truck stop treating a driver that way? You really DO see some serious contempt for drivers at these places... I find that offensive. Not much I can do considering just how rude and low-class some of my "brethren" are >:-(

Parkin'
Of course, drivers are kinda stuck, as most Wally World's (or other big stores) won't let you park there. In fact, most places won't and in the Communistwealth of Virginia, they'll wake you up at a rest area and make you drive illegally (and unsafely) to some other place. What friggin' bastards! Oh, they say it's about safety, but it's really about "revenue enhancement." Personally, were I an owner operator, I'd NEVER go to or through Virginia. If they ALL did this and maybe grew a set, this kind of shit would stop.

The French
Ya know, it's popular in America to make fun of the French, to call them cowards or losers. Well, let me ask you this: how come when French truck drivers go on strike, they get EVERYTHING they want? I'll tell you why, because they have BALLS and aren't afraid to lock it up-- to block on ramps, to block fuel islands, intersections, etc. Here in the "Land of the Free" well, most of us won't participate because "Ah got's ta pay me ma pickemup payment or fer ma quads. I gots to buy ma kids that thar xbox, so I don't dare rock the boat." blah, blah, blah! Company drivers, well were in a bad spot because we CAN'T decide to strike unless some kind of wacky violence happens... sucks really!

Hey jackasses, don't insult the French anymore... they HAVE cojones... unlike many American drivers (ooh, bad me for callin' a spade a spade!)... Alas, our country has become all form and NO SUBSTANCE :-(

French Truckers on STRIKE!
