Had one student who was insistant he take his-wanted to keep up on American Idol- you know, he and his family were really into it he told me! He thought I was joking when I told him no, I can still see him looking up at me in the cab trying to hand it up to me! Finally convinced him it was going to be done my way! We never really did see eye to eye on most things concerning the truck! Maybe I should have let him bring it along.....NOT!!

Well you're going to need a lap top for internet porn and a good TV with dvd/vhs for those not on the net...and a jumbo sized box of tissues /lotion from sam's club.

I kept a tv and dvd player in the truck when I was driving OTR, but I think I spent more time just listening to the satellite radio. I would never get a satellite TV system for the truck. If you use it enough to get your money's worth out of it, that's just too much down time.

I can even point you to the specific video from which the gif for that avatar came from.. it's a live performance of "J'en Ai Marre". My sister's quite an eerily obsessive fan of hers, and whenever I'd call my family in Finland, all she'd ever want to talk about was Alizée (she was 12 at the time). Nowadays, it's Kate Nash, Emma Schapplin, and Tarja Turunen. Perhaps, in a couple years time, she'll grow out of that obsessive fangirl stage of her life.
