Thanks Lawrence. I enjoyed the event and putting some faces to names was pretty neat. Also some of the new people I met were pretty nice too. In addition I learned some things. I came out of the event with a little bit different idea of what I wanted than going in. There's always options...

This might not work for people in this industry, but it's a grin how effective it worked for this guy. Checkpoint Soulwinning Demonstration Video - YouTube

Friday I was driving down the highway. I was about 200 miles from home. Along comes my former jiu jitsu instructor and passes me. He didn't stop or anything. It got me thinking to when I met a guy from my high school on spring break at a beach in Florida. We didn't know each other in high...

Every now & then someone gets behind ya that won't turn off their brights. If I can I'll slow down & let em pass. Sometimes though, you're in a construction zone or what have ya. I'm not asking this in a way that I'm some maniacal guy trying to blind someone. I'm more just wondering if...

Hi- Our company is switching over to Sylectus. I didn't know this until yesterday. In the meantime, I've already ordered a new phone last week because mine is starting to go south. I currently have a motorola i-576 phone. I'm also on a Sprint data plan that we need for work. Last year...

How often do you have that proverbial perfect day?

Pepsi has a new bottle coming out. This could lower the fuel consumption of this country. By how much, I'm not sure. It's a fully bio degradable bottle rather than the plastic ones currently used...

If you can A w/out violating any privacy issues, what would be a ballpark rate for your company for a run going from Flint, Mi to Toronto in a cargo van? This would figure on a 250 mile trip & of course, going into Canada. I realize there's a slew of variables and an exact price might not be...

I went to that site earlier today. It gave the price of $3.38 at a certain station near the end of my run. All the others were $3.55 or so. Knowing the Speedway prices were pretty accurate, I went to this station that said was $3.38. I get there & it's also $3.55. This was about an hour or so...

Along w/ my dad sometimes. I'm going to be put to shame when someone asks us "Mrs W, how many miles did you get last month?" & she repsonds w/ something like "10,890" & then they ask "Danny, how many miles did you get last month?" & I respond w/ "about 400" :eek: Seriously though, she...

Hi, I'm looking for a post by Turtle where he explains the proper way to maintain a Sprinter. I thought it was in one of the sticky's somewhere, but maybe not. I have searched. WOW have I searched. No luck so I'm now just going to ask if someone else might know what I'm referring too. I...

I do- at least in winter when I have extra pockets. I have to fess up in summer not so much. And am dang glad sure I did this time. I found my main set 20 minutes later, but the place I delivered to would have been peeved if they had to keep their overhead door in Michigan open for that...

I could use some ideas here please. The situation is at my folks house, to get out of their driveway, ya pull out onto a road w/ a 55MPH speed limit. That wouldn't seem like such a big deal as millions of people live in similar situations across the country. The problem is that ya can't see...

Now that 2010 is coming to a close, are there any runs you've had in the past year that are memorable & make ya smile as ya think back on em? What took place to make em special for ya?

Scenario: I took my van to a pickup. While waiting to get loaded I shut it off. They loaded me, did the paperwork etc. When I start it to leave the thing doesn't start. They call security & in the meantime I'm trying to start a few times. Before security actually got to me, my van...

I realize these types of runs are rare, but just wondering how often do ya get these kinds of little gems.

In this incarnation of expediting I've noticed on thing that hasn't happened when I was in this before. There's a lot more runs that leave the midwest. That part of things is good. I'm finding I like longer runs better than the 300 or so milers. The bad news in this is I'm finding that when...

I was at the J & got 30 gallons of gas. I went in to get my shower ticket & the gal said that I had 1/2 shower. I asked about the 30 gallons & she said it was took 50, & that 30 would get me a half shower. She also said 2 half showers doesn't equal 1 full shower. I had always thought 1/2...

I'm not sure how true it is. I heard it on the John Tesh show though (insert joke here). Anyway, supposedly having a cinnamon air freshener releases something that naturally keeps ya awake longer.

I remember part of a thread on this very thing not to long ago. Basically I was worried about an original not getting to the office in the US Mail after I'd had paperwork signed & faxed in. I do have copies, but they didn't get the original. So now I'm sitting here after making a delivery...
