Could you package be on this truck??? Scattered somewhere in TX?? LOL

Just kidding, but I thought this was an interesting post. The guy is ok, just complained about back problems!!

Debbie :D
 
It's far more fun when a beer truck overturns and the cops have to chase the looters away.
 
Thankfully, my shows aren't due to be delivered until Friday comes
I'll have 4 shows and from the tracking about 30 boxes to sort!!
I ran and checked the tracker when the news eported it today.

Or, on The Simpsons, a sugar truck. Homer collected the sugar and tried to sell it to people, but it had broken glass and pebbles in it.
 
One of my hostesses actually has her show on the way...wonder if it was on that truck???:eek:
 
Thanks Debbie - we send packages all over the US so chances are we may have some on there from my FT job. I notified our call center so they know. Thanks again!

With Miller having one of their largest breweries right here, it seems like about once or twice a year one of their semis flips on it's side at the Zoo Interchange. Cases of beer litter the area. The problem isn't gaper blocks, it's parked cars of guys trying to pick up beer.

I don't think I'd want to open any of those cans just too soon.
 
the news tonight said they would continue to ship the ackages to their intended destination....

And, since Chefann isn't here, she would post a quote from Chief Wiggam..."A beer truck has overturned. All units respond. Bring pretzels. Repeat: Bring pretzels!"

That wasn't a beer truck - it was a beer geyser from when Bart shook up a can of beer with a paint shaker at the hardware store. :)And, yes, it's really sad that I knew that off the top of my head.

Well, I was HALFbarrel right.

Ha!BTW, did you see the season premiere of The Simpsons? The opening credits were packed full of references to the movie.

Nope, missed it.The local news missed a great opportunity - "Beer truck overturns. Sheriff says alcohol was involved."
