description: Inside the cab of an old truck the monologue begins: Turn right up there and get off these pavements... The speaker is John Sims, an unlettered pig farmer, and the journey is the back roads of southern Utah. While John and his driver drink canned beer, we hear of pranks, pitfalls, bootleggers, rural childhood, bluecollar jobs, and the horrifying tale of an explosive accident on an oil rig.
