Default My Dad is cooler than yours!!!! :)

...or he could be, who knows? He just called and said he did an interview for a documentary at Jubitz Truckstop with a film crew. the movie is Big Rig, and will be out in theaters/DVD 2007 early. If you see a segment on a driver in HHG, that will most likely be him in the interview. They didn't know much about hhg and were enlightended. They could be filming at a trukstop anywhere, so you could nab 15 minutes of fame too! 8)

Note to readers: All of your fathers are cool, mine just happens to be in a trucking documentary :wink: And based on how it sounds, its a documentary/satire/FICTION movie, and sounds out of the norm. I plan to dig this post up in about 8 months when someone posts about this new movie that came out.

In case if his cell phone is busy, he might be on the phone negotiating with Steven Spielberg or Quenten Tuarantino :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:

CONVOY!!!!
WE GOT A GREAT BIG CONVOY!

Who could forget the legendary Stroker Ace? May not pertain to trucking, but it's got Burt and it's got Cale in there too!

Convoy is great, but I do love Black Dog, since I love Meatloaf.

I got my copy of Convoy at Amazon.com for just a few bucks. I think I paid under 20 including shipping.
