I know every engineer on every train, all of their children and all of their names, every handout in every town, and every door that ain't locked when no one's around..... Roger Miller never wrote a bad song (IMHO). TB 'King of the Road' is a beautiful tribute to the song, and songwriter.
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that it has never tried to contact us.

I got 2 King of the Roads 2 years ago. One died and the other is a NoID. I'm guessing the one that died wasn't the king either. Sticking tongue out

Leslie, did you notice who one of the parents were on "Jaguar". Green Grin!
