Wow NBC decided to ignore all the polls and declare their own frontrunner. The media did the same with Obama, hopefully it works again and we get a better result.

I believe there should be an audit done on the Fed but when some
reporter tries to mislead people into thinking Herman Cain belittles those that believe this and calls him a liar in the headline it really is a bad thing for RP. The mistake here is attacking a guy that isn't mainstream, people...
You definitely need your own authority to get freight from a broker. It may seem like a good idea to go out on your own but your expenses will only go up and running with a company will help you to learn the basics before you make a costly mistake. A lot of the brokered freight can be low paying...

Still sitting at the Toledo terminal to take advantage of the shore power, I was able to get some wooden boxes built that are fixed against the side of the van and are the same width as the wheel wells. We were able to throw out the plastic totes that we had our stuff in so now we have more...
