Scott I had the pleasure of meeting your lovely wife today. I tried to tell he what a nice guy you were, I don't think she bought it. :)
Hope your back is feeling better.
IMHO your 50 - 50 is flawed. In that type of split it should be.

Had a Sunday load to West Point, MS. Delivered it when they opened Monday morning. Went to the little truck stop in town got some sleep and headed up to Jackson, TN. Rain yesterday, a little drizzle and gloomy now. Hoping for a good load today.
