Word on the Sesame Street is, that they are infused.
Stoners from the area rushed to help remove the cookies
That’s the way the cookie crumbles.
Ya damn it I missed it by that <-> much!!! ;-[
Probably because they may be filled with drugs, do you think.
Too late. All the mountain cookie monsters are surrounding the truck as we speak. President Biden is going to tell everyone gathered there that he has being riding that truck for 36 years as Vice President of United States. He will be passing out cookies after his short speech. No masks are required for the cookie eaters.
That was so funny I forgot to laugh, RDR!!!!
Yer a hard one to figure Martin.
What is really hard to figure out is what in the hell is a truck doing on 36 with 9,000 pounds of cookies? No stores along the way to sell all those to. Makes me wonder what is inside the cookies, meth, pot, etc.
That was good! Masks are 4 fools! Say no to the Jim Jones jab!
Incidents like this is why they have a SIGN In Alton at the Junction of 101 & 36 saying basically NO BIG RIGS seldom does anyone actually pay attention such as the driver of this one!!!!
So what I don’t understand is how you can get a license to drive a big rig when you can’t read!
An excellent question, all I can say is mebbe they had a sale at Mall Wart or perhaps K mart or some other place, CHEAP!!!
Cracker Jack box
That’s a theory I haven’t used in a while, thanx for reminding me about that one!!! ;-D
We should have sent a tanker of milk for the kids and coffee for the adults.
Thin mints or platinum
Somebody out 36 gots a baaad case of the munchies!
Well….That’s some trim scene! And I thought our Costco runs last November were big…
Nom Nom Nom, cookies, me like cookies!!! Watch out for the hungry trimmagrants.
I really like the idea of sending some milk and coffee alone
Ah man. I would’ve totally called off work to go, uhmm, help. With a full cup o’ coffee, of course. How do I sign up for notifications like this?
Sigh . . . I need a cookie!
Just hearing HWY 36 stresses me out.
