You like that front page photo? We had our whole graphics team on it.
Let’s face it: when you are leaving that special someone on a cross-country road trip while drunk on flask whiskey, and then it starts raining, and you are sobbing, the last thing you want is to be fiddling with your iPod. Lucky for you, I like making really dramatic playlists, and have come up with the perfect music to have your life ruined to. This way, at least you won’t crash your semi truck while fiddling with your iPod. Put your seat belt on, you fucking sad bastard! Get your shit together! Now listen up.
Thanks to Donnybrook’s favorite secret tipster, Chris, for help curating this playlist.

I was JUST thinking how it was probably impossible to put The Moody Blues and Bone Thugs on the same playlist. WRONG, JB. WRONG.
Brilliant! But… there’s a gaping hole where “She’s Gone Back To What She Calls Home,” by Cole Hardin should be…. http://www.theonion.com/articles/heartbreaking-country-ballad-paralyzes-trucking-in,1176/
“‘Scuse me a moment,” Knutson said. “Sorry, but I must’ve gotten something in my eye just then.”
@JB – many firsts have happened on this here website. We make miracles happen.
Lastly, my playlist link isn’t working. I’m trying to fix it now, but I might just end up crying in my whiskey.
