I wrote a cute Australian for over a year. Got to where we were on the phone every weekend. Then I got my first credit card. Had a hard choice... visit her or buy a computer. Jackie wants to visit Australia. It'll be my first time too. :7 :7 :7 "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means...

Apparently, his new team is rallying around him. No one would've imagined Joey taking over for an uninjured Culpepper. Personally, I didn't think Joey was a bad qb to begin with. He is dealt what's given to him. And the O-line went nowhere, the run game wasn't threatening, and the recievers kept...

Jay... I've seen a T-600 with a 24' box. Nice setup! Ateam... never say never. They've gone from 45' to 48' to 53' trailers in a matter of a couple years. Another 5' on a straight truck would help, but at what cost? The turning radius would likely stink. If the extra length went off the back...

Famous Amos's situation in Nogales, AZ brings up a valid point when trying to help someone stuck in nowhere. If you're stuck and are asking someone to help you find a load, you need to post your phone number. To post info about a load on EO is a moot point, as the load is likely to go in a...

Are12... you have to close the lid! ;) Actually... I have a George Foreman clone. I can't remember the brand, but I'll let you know. It doesn't char like a George, but there's no splatter. I'm thinkin of taking our George from the house. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I...

I LOVE the McRib!!! Processed rib meat is beefy... no bones about it! :7 Famous Daves has awesome ribs! Their sauces are all great, and you can get them at Wallyworld. I tend to like the country style ribs. They're a little more fatty than slab ribs, but so much meatier also. When cooking...

Looks like I need to reread my own posts. LOL I did say that's roughly what I do. I usually take a week off a month, so I'm not always at 900+. Sometimes I'm around 600 a week, usually 800 a week. Last week my check was 1200. What I was trying to get at was it fluctuates. Sometimes a lot! I get...

Read it again. I said that was for the "last two weeks". I just went thru the best month I ever have in expediting. Mostly due to being out the whole month, but a lot to do with being in the right place at the right time with the right company for me. Currently, we're just adding my income to...

Yep... 63 is comfy in Mich. I won't push it much past that. 5mph difference does help, in case you get pulled over. Plus, you need the extra reaction time to avoid these Michigan drivers! "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

You hit the nail, Bryan. Extremists get all the attention. Most of the time, I believe they interpret the <insert religious manual here> to their own views. All of the books have to be interpreted; but claiming God or Allah wants this or that is trying to read a diety's mind. And if you can do...

Sent you a pm. Good luck! "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Marvin... why is it my turn? I already put my story on here. Thanx for thinkin of me tho ;) "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Personally, I would nix the idea of profit. If you can find something ltl for over .50/mi, I would jump on it now. If you wait till the last minute, every Tom, Dik, and Harry will be looking for something home for turkey; and you'll be SOL. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I...

We were at the inlaws this weekend, in Ontario. My wife's dad mentioned one of his friends who has cancer, and the gov pushed back her operation date. She wondered if bashing her head on the sidewalk would get her in for her operation sooner. Sorry... not what I want in healthcare. "If I claim...

As far as doing a personal move, in my experience just let your carrier know. They'll tell you to put a "Not for hire" sign over your DOT numbers, and you're on your way. You still have to log and scale, but it's not a commercial load, and therefore doesn't need load insurance. Your liability, I...

RE: Safety records, authority of trucking companie I hope that jerk rots in expediter's hell! (200 dh, 100 loaded, wait for a week and do it all over again, and not get paid) :7 "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas

Some companies don't like you looking for loads on your own, while some don't allow it, period. Companies like Panther have their own backhaul dept. that lets you call in a load you find. Remember tho... if your company did not sanction the load, it's illegal to be on your truck. "If I claim to...

Likewise, you could be driving that 200 miler, and the guy behind you gets a 1000 miler. That would trully stink if you're a team, and the one sitting behind you was a solo. I think most of the problem is... leave the short ones for the solos and save the teams for the longer runs. With the way...

Wolf... Salinas may be a better place to sit, depending on your company. "If I claim to be a wise man, it surely means that I don't know." - Kansas
