I'm just glad you weren't taking the photo while driving…I think some people are actually proud of never being on time. Strange, but it seems true, doesn't it? Like making a grand entrance? Maybe he or she just wants attention from other drivers, and now you've just given them what they want!

Anyone who says “Better late than never.” (or some such along that line)
Has “never” read the Holy Bible.

That’s the way I really intended to say it.

Man, you guys are being way too funny with this. It’s cracking me up. Truth in advertising! Those two slogans by Total Transformation! Extremely funny!

Ah. Good times.

Dan: I remember the made for TV movie, Duel. It was directed by Steven Spielberg. It inspired me to be a writer; I thought, “If you can sell a whole TV show based on a menacing TRUCK, anything is possible.

Ingrid: SEND ME THAT PICTURE!

Wickle: Funny again! Awesome. Totally funny. A hearse. I love it.

Ross: I guess the skull signals to the world that you’re tough, that you’ve got what it takes to study human anatomy. Everyone knows how hard anatomy is.

Laura: Yeah, I know that work. I know nothing about it, but Ed Hardy’s stuff always seems real derivative (sp??) to me. Unless he made UP the whole skull motif thing. Then, of course, he’s a bit of a genius. But even then, I’m always, like, “Okay. Got it. Skulls. MOVE ON ALREADY.” But. Everyone’s a critic.

You haven’t seen a skull until you have seen any piece of Ed Hardy merchandise. It’s not a real skull until it has snakes and roses coming out of the eye sockets.

“Maybe the skulls aren’t meant to be scary. Maybe they’re supposed to show what this trucker’s customers look like by the time their delivery arrives.”

Lines such as these are why your blog is always worth checking.

Oh and also, might you comment on the cultures fascination with skulls? I live in San Clemente and I know you live in SD so we must see some of the same cars and trucks with their bad skull stickers and skull trailer hitches and skulls hanging from their rear view mirror. I always do an internal eye roll when I see them, but maybe I just don’t know the power of the skull and am really missing out by not representing the skull…

Wait … after extensive consultation with my wife and my 11-year-old son (my 10-year-old son and 1-year-old daughter share no blame for this) …

It’s an elaborate hearse service (“Always late” as in “Dead forever”), which explains the death motif carrying all of the necessary personal effects for people who wish that they had been pharaohs. That also explains the slow, solemn pace at which the truck was driving.

No, I don’t drink, why do you ask?
