MLB and I enjoy our Search for America Tours. The extra time in driving is more than offset by the absence of dealing with poory trained, uncaring, and often surly TSA employees. We can pack as big a bottle of shampoo as we want, and no one cares. We also don’t have to deal with uncaring and surly airline employees, who see us only as cattle, to be herded on and off the plane to make room for the next batch of suckers. We can stop and get our own snacks, meals, and water whenever the need arises. Nevertheless, road trips are lots of hours on, well, the road. So MLB and I look at the 18 wheelers, note what truck line they are from, and opine as to what they may be carrying. On the most recent tour, the following dialogue unfolded:
MLB: I know I’ve asked a thousand times, but what does P.A.M. stand for in the PAM truck lines?
Me: Pluggable Authentication Modules.
I couldn’t find the answer to her question on the PAM website, so I guess my answer’s as good as any1
