McLaurin is wrong. Driving a delivery truck is WAY easier than writing.<BR/><BR/>Except if you crash it, which is what I did - flipped over on Rte 128 in Massachusetts, thought I was going to die, watched a stream turn white from all the spilled milk. Made the news. Lost the job.<BR/>rkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14310824.post-69580790058506973662007-06-22T10:39:00.000-04:002007-06-22T10:39:00.000-04:00I don't see that as contrary.

I think a screenwriter.<BR/><BR/>There's a part of us that wants to be flattered, a part of us that wants to believe we're wonderful...but we're all just trying to make it through the day.<BR/>rkrichardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04490138743808791552noreply@blogger.com
