Tractors and Trailers

So, just what is in a name I ask you. If I say the word 'tree', which one popped into your head? Or if I say 'cow' which one appeared that time?

For us to have a meaningful communication then words must be chosen very carefully so as to impart the idea that we wish to convey. Is that heavy or what? When you read the title to this post was this the image that appeared in your mind? It's ok because as a young boy/man I worked this kinda combo on the farm. We did not have a cab or a radio or A/C like this tractor no doubt is equipped. No sirree, the tractors I worked were more of the cook your brains while depleting as much sweat out of your body and breath as much dust into your lungs kinda tractor. I hate farm work.

No, this is what I had in mind for a tractor. My Pete. A whole different idea don't you think? As an exercise google this: tractor trailer. What you get are site after site about OTR rigs like mine. Even for google searches you have to be very specific in the words you use. Now go back to your search and add to front the word 'farm'. Your search string should look like this: farm tractor trailer. Different sites right?



All this leads into my nonuse of the word 'diet'. I don't do diets. Why? Because they fail. First in your mind then on your hips. There is no one that I know that has been on a successful diet. No one. Sure, you lose pounds for a short while. But it comes back and more. I am on a food management program. It's planned. It's flexible. And it's mine. I have reprogrammed my outlook about food and life. That is very different than a 'diet'.



Now, I need a trailer for my Pete. I think this will do just fine.
