When offered a chance to enter White Glove (which prohibits pets in the truck), the solution was easy. I had Spot put to sleep and, after a brief ceremony, had a taxidermist friend stuff him. Now he occupies a place of honor on the top bunk, positioned so his baleful eyes are always cast in my...

Make sure you have a good divorce attorney on retainer....just in case it works out as well as my first attempt to team with a spouse....

And please don't ask if they are simultaneous.

Yeah, but teachers have a soft spot in their hearts for us lowly expedite drivers! Both of my wives AND my fiancee are retired teachers...

Actually, my fellow Michiganders, with a few bells and whistles yet to be added after-market (a four camera security system, a tire pressure monitoring system, an enormous, maize block M painted on the roof, etc., etc.) the total cost will be very close to that number WITHOUT excise tax. I...

Uh-oh, now my secret is no longer secret.

You'll get no argument from me on that philosophy, zorry. I've followed it since my first true venture into the free-enterprise universe, in 1980, aside from a couple commission-only sales jobs that required nurturing a territories. I quickly learned labor-saving machinery was vital to...

Not to worry, folks. The congestion will soon be a problem that resolves itself. Well, maybe not soon, but eventually, if we ignore overpopulation and its effect on little Mother Earth. As we inevitably eat ourselves toward a bare planet, and fossil fuel supplies dwindle with increasing...

But he'll show 'em! Isn't there an old expression about someone cutting off their nose to spite their face...?

Either you are The Mother Of Trolls....or someone stitched too deep when that stupid fedora was sewn to your head!

When you're ready to take that last load contact me about selling your expediting business, along with the goodwill you've created. At that time we will negotiate how much you will have to pay me.

It's obvious you're going to be a tremendous sucess in any business venture you attempt.

Are you referring to the Veterans Administration? If so, why? Is the VA more lenient?? Free??? I've only begun to use "them" in the last few years; when I DEROS'ed and ETS'ed those guv'mint facilities were considered butchershops among us EM and were avoided like the plague. I only...

Forum decorum?? I'd ask what you consider forum decorum, but I'm sure you would go on and on, laborious paragraph after laborious paragraph. Please save it for the many semi-literate vanners I'm sure you impress. I don't know, or care, what your "esteemed" administrator looks like, but if he...

It's good you can make that observation, skypilot. Seems like I made that clear in my first response to the OP - just prior to me being chastised for my "cowardly" attempt (albeit, after the fact) to quell obnoxious behavior in a business setting. My only mistake was in not understanding how...

And here I was beginning to think you are as uptight as all these frustrated vanners. That, in and of itself, is a relief! I feel sorry for them (the vanners, that is). A slow economy combined with an overabundance of 4-wheeled "trucks" must contribute to their testiness and anal urges...

I certainly considered doing exactly that, OVUM, but it really wasn't my place to gag him. As any experienced presenter knows, there is a tactful way to defer questions and comments to the appropriate time.

Now you're beginning to get the picture, dannywoof. Earlier you referred to me as "gumpy". That's as funny as some of the terms Do-Gooder Cheri tosses out. On the other hand, "grumpy" is a very apt description. Wolverines are not only grumpy, they are normally vicious, solitary, selfish, and...

Not to belabor this, but if wolfy's constant interruptions weren't deliberate, then they must result from a severe case of ignorance. Since you didn't attend I really don't care how much this upsets you. I know it won't keep ME from sleeping soundly! I don't know what "flaming" is, but I...
