Yes, very simple, if we were dealing with stuff that passed through pipelines and that required the pipelines to be full at all times. Unfortunately, we're not. If a settlement is due to be paid out on a particular Friday, it's to be paid out regardless of whether or not the pipeline is full...

You misunderstand. While on Check Hold your POD advance is held up, true enough, but the problem is so are your settlements. Cash advance notwithstanding, it's hard to run a business when you get paid nothing whatsoever, not even your settlements.

The way it works is, if you are out of service for two consecutive Mondays, and/or do not otherwise run a load within the week between those two Mondays, whether you are in-service or out-of-service, you are automatically placed on Check Hold. For example, Christmas Eve I was in-service but I...

Vista sux. I'm still using Windows, XP, but I don't use the things that bog it down so, like Outlook, MSIE, Real Player, lots of things. I also don't use the "pretty" settings, and instead have it configured for performance rather than for appearance.

You'd think he'd know one way or the other. <snort>

At the top of my page when I click the Community link, I get 4 choices: Open Forum Expedite Photos Free E-mail Industry Events Nary a "members photos" among them to click on.

That's like the guy who robbed a convenience store while wearing his work uniform. On his cap and shirt was his, and his company's name. Or the two guys in Memphis that raided a construction site and stole a tailer. The hooked the trailer to their pickup and headed home. On the way out of the...

It's a code, in this case 4 letters, that are in graphical format rather than in textual format, that you have to read and then manually type in, thereby preventing automated bots from being able to read it and automatically register themselves onto, say, the Classified or the Forum sections...

Splendariferous Diet Rite soft drinks are sweetened with Splenda. Cola, Red Raspberry, White Grape (my favorite), Tangerine (second favorite), Pink Grapefruit, Black Cherry, Lemonade, Mango Melon, Strawberry Kiwi, Iced Mocha, Fruit Punch, Golden Peach. Others include: White Rock: Diet Cola...

Doesn't work. I enter my login and pass (even though I'm already logged in) and then I type in the Access Code, and it goes through the "Validating Login Credentials" and comes right back to the same login page and tells me that "We could not log you in." Happens quick, too. The grayscale...

I think it's because it takes a big rig to handle something as big as Expediters Online. OK, maybe a little. :D

RE: Someting New On "Is this a reasonable price fo Moot: Quote; as do the sharpest of knives require the wet stone, so do the wisest of men require advice. That's not even a real quote. No one ever said that. Someone made it up on the fly 'cause it sounds kewl. But the problem is, none of the...

RE: Someting New On "Is this a reasonable price fo "Can you tell which truck we decided to buy? Was it Freightliner, Sterling or Hino?" It seems pretty obvious which one you went with. "If you can then like most of your decision in life your guessing based on what you think you know." I...

Wow. I can't believe that so many people allow their chain to get jerked by a shock-jock in training, a poor man's Willie Cunningham. Too funny. Go get 'em Ft Wayne! <giggle> Slow and steady, even in expediting, wins the race - Aesop

It freezes for the same reason your computer will freeze - a software glitch. When it freezes, power it off and back on. Slow and steady, even in expediting, wins the race - Aesop

I've got a pair of safety glasses that fit over my glasses. But I've also got a really cool pair of glasses/goggle that look like something Batman or Robin would wear. They are air sealed goggles that breathe, which works great at the chemical plants and when doing workworking or sanding. They...

As has been alluded to, when you have batteries of differing states of charge and/or capacities, the electrical energy in them will always try to be equal. In other words, if you have an older battery and you connect a newer battery to it, the older battery will feed off the new battery for its...

Espar, hands down. It will pay for itself in just one winter for most people, and in a matter of a few weeks if you're not insulated and are idling. Insulate your van. The D2 will keep you warm and toasty in the most cavernous of Sprinters, BTW. RLENT has one, no bulkhead, stays warm, sleeps...

I'll add more detail later when I get time, but for now, the yellow top and the blue tops are internally identical, no functional difference whatsoever. The only difference is marketing and the terminal connections. :) Yellow top, blue top, both are combination deep cycle and starting...

Greg, that's precisely how I interpreted it. Whatever ya gotta do to make that livelihood dollar du jour, it's all good. 'As long as it helps me and my family, it's justified, sound, right, professional. I have my integrity in tact. No, I wouldn't want anyone to do that to me, but that's...
