When I Ride Around in the Truck I Feel Like Tommy Lee Jones for Some Reason.

My Recovery Story - Part 3 - 3/18 - 1:40pm


There's something about jumping out of a truck in a hefty pair of shit-kicker boots. The way you have to let yourself fall just a little bit, but make it look like you are just stretching your legs.

The way the dust kicks up --- poooof ---- as both feet hit the ground together.

The way the hands know what to grab outta the truck without your eyes having to look.

Yeah, when I get out of that truck I am not Dave, and I don't have to repair the wall to that high tunnel. I am Tommy Lee, looking for some bad guy to kick with my shit-kickers.

And if I really were Tommy Lee, I would spit, look at the sky and say something about America.

Perhaps, "America, boy howdy, America."

PEACE
