What hooked me is AuctionStud (www.auctionstud.com). It immediately sends me an email when something new that I'm looking for is listed on eBay. If it has a good BIN, I pounce on it. I've gotten so many great deals, however, now I have all this stuff that I really don't need! I can't stop myself... Alan I too am an addict. What hooked me is AuctionStud (www.auctionstud.com).

I bid on all kinds of things that I don't need; it helps me escape from my everyday life and my depression, but I really shouldn't be doing it.

[pause] Now imagine a tractor trailer truck with a 'Student Driver' sign on the back. That's a logging truck." This was back in Washington state, where we started our trek. At the time, we thought it was humorous, but now it really sticks out in my head. I don't recall having any issues with logging trucks on my trip, but they were definitely scary to be near, even with a decent amount of shoulder buffering us. From what I've heard, they get paid by the load, so the pressure is on to deliver as fast as possible. The sad part is that it's likely nothing will be done in light of the accident - they'll still be able to keep speeding in overweight rigs on narrow roads.

There is currently a shortage of wood that is plaguing many of our paper mills, so I expect that most drivers hauling wood are speeding more than ever as they put in overtime. Logging trucks are notoriously fast, and I suspect that many of them drive overweight rigs that decreases their control. When you're on a dirt road in northern Maine and see a logging truck coming the other direction, it's best to pull off and let them fly by. I also find that many of the drivers are Canadian and seem to have a relatively cavalier attitude about U.S. driving laws. My deepest sympathies to the family of the fallen cyclist.
