Made it to Laredo ahead of the storms. Eagles won. A good day :D

Yesterday: Downingtown, PA (30 miles from home :) ) to Ligonier, IN. Tomorrow, Knox IN to Laredo. Due in Ldo Monday, then sit till Weds. when I'll be paid. I faxed in my paperwork for the Ligonier run 20 minutes late, so I won't be paid for it until the 26th :mad: Now at the hook in New Haven, IN.

Eight years as a courier. Seven in NYC, one delivering pharma for Prestige. Six months expediting, all with Express Logistics, and also concurrently with first Prestige then On Dekk. Happy with the EL & OD combo. :) Never driven T/T. Flattop van now, tall van next, then tall vans until the day I...

No. It would be failure to yield. Local quirks such as this are particularly dangerous, IMHO, because people are so mobile nowadays. You can't count on the guy across the intersection knowing what you're gonna do; he might be an Israeli from Minnesota :p

Gonna be in & out the next few weeks as I get things sorted at home. Now back in, as in going home.

Nope. Whole body went popsicle. TODAY is Big Buddy day!

What a clusterfutz this run was! First, which door. No bigs. Next, need the magic number. Phone calls, waiting. Typical bs. What's the load? Whipping cream. Frozen. Guess who has no reefer? Yup. Sounds like a TONU, right? Nope. Got clearance to take it. Booked it across Illinoise, didn't use my...

Oy oy oy. Been there, passed that. :thumbdown:

Just drove down to Pilot in Monee. Got a 1700 p/u near here to go to Rock Island. Are Chicago drivers stupid, insane or both? :banghead: Between the Stevenson and the Dan Ryan, it's worse than Jersey :eek:

Waiting at the Pilot on Cali Ave in Chicago. Daylight sitting ONLY. At 1600, back to safer places in IN.

Loaded 8 miles from home. Leave Sunday for Chitown :rolleyes:

My turn to say "stay away from the place across from the Pilot" ;)

Blizzard: Good luck. I hope at half down they give you a sweet interest rate. If they do, it looks like a sound business decision; if not...

Moberly, MO to Dublin, VA. Drop at 0600 tomorrow then home :D

Ex-offenders can't vote in VA? What a crock! Then again, what if they tried it in Illinois :rolleyes:

Got ready to pack it in & go to Houston, but got a run to KC. Now at Petro in Oak Grove. Hoping to head east, miss the Mrs.

Same here, same J as before. Leaving at 1700, run or not.

Too tired to go anymore today and too hot (Laredo) to sleep in van. Going for a room now; rest up & hit it tomorrow. Currently at J; a couple Bolts, a Pen-sky, and a whole cathouse full of two-headed kitties.

It's the dash for the cash, Murray. If I'd gotten one call before the other yesterday, I'd be heading to Miami right now. I've got a friend in West Palm and a sister in Orlando. Woulda been a fine weekend :)

Bama issue resolved. MS to Laredo.
