>You'all might give this a try...........Hit the smaller truck weigh
stations when they're closed. Pull up on the scales and many times the big
readout up above will come on and tell you how much extra stuff your child
bride has loaded under the bed.. If that doesn't work, look at the plywood
sheets that many of them put over the windows to keep the irate truckers
from breaking the windows. Chances are you'll find a small square cut out of
one of the sheets. Look in there and you'll see a digital readout or even a
dial face from one of "them old fashioned" scales. No supporting their
coffee fund!.............Jim Davis
