>Wanna mess with dispatch? When they send you a message, >answer it using the QC of the van next to you. You really think they'd notice? ROFL :P :P :P

Thanks for reminding us that miracles DO happen, and for sharing yours - he's a little cutie pie!

How can you agree to something that critical >to our country without having concrete evidence supporting >it? Um, by taking advice from Cheney & Rumsfeld?

Tmbm: I don't use a card, guess it's internal in my laptop, which is 1 1/2 yrs old - maybe you don't need one either. What I use for Wifi is ATT, which is partnered with Cingular, and I originally paid $20 a month for one year - now it is just $2 a month. Where I get online is most often...

And after you've given the Grammy speech, can we still expect to find you sitting on a milk crate somewhere, entertaining folks with your music? :)

Jalapenokid: if you haven't figured it out yet, to read the PMs, just click on the subject line, or the notice saying there is a msg in your inbox, and to reply, just click on reply at the bottom of the msg, or the little icon that looks like paper & pencil, below the name of the person you're...

In the middle of a long run the other night, I stopped for a nap, and requested a wakeup call at 0200, just as a backup to my alarm. At 0228, I sent a msg saying to never mind, as I was up & running. One minute later, the wakeup call arrived, followed by a msg from dispatch saying it had been...

Bad spellers of the world: untie! Oh wait, Chuckwagon is gone, forget it, you haven't got a chanse. ;)

If I can make it, I will - it's a cool place to be, and to meet people, and to walk your lil tootsies off, and there's enough chrome to make even Dieselphreak happy, and a great concert - just an all around good time. And if you come away with some new toys, or ideas on how to make your ride...

I got a hardcover book full of blank, lined pages at the Dollar Store, in which I write down everything: truckstops, wifi, and whatever else I like in a specific place, plus all the truck numbers from EO people. It's a great help, and I sure wish it wasn't sitting on my desk at home right now x(...

Ladytrucker, It's good to hear that you're doing well, and you are, in spite of Murphy - I'd hope he got left in the prison too, but kinda doubt it. The weather is a booger, from now until spring really does arrive, so we just have to take it easy, and careful. And don't let anyone or anything...

Now I prefer to use the cruise, to avoid 'foot-feed fatigue' - to each his own, right? If there are losts of ups & downs, I'll try to stay in the hammer lane rather than play leapfrog, but if I do need to move back to the granny lane, I make sure one of the big guys isn't zooming downhill over...

Digital cameras are nice, but this is when it pays to have a camera phone, with zoom, cause it's always handy - snap a photo of the offender, red handed, (so to speak), and a photo of his van, including the #. Then call his carrier and ask for an email address to which you can send proof of your...

Me too, Dieselphreak - though I believe you'll do just fine, 'cause you know what you want. If you hadn't tried running team, you'd always wonder if it wouldn't have been better that way, and now you know. Keep us posted on the solo thing, ok?

I was in a motel, in Spartanburg when a fellow ConWay [and former Panther] driver called & told me. I didn't believe it till I dialed ConWay's phone number & someone answered "Panther Expedited" All I could say was "Am I driving for you, now?" Surreal!

Sounds like an 'operator error' to me....:P :P :P

India, I don't have a fridge in my van, though I would if I'd seen that cool micro/fridge last year, lol, but I use a cooler and ice, and clean it every other day. It is a PITA, but far better than the stuff called food on most exit signs. My pet peeve is the way they're designed, with little...

We were told that the signing bonus was given by ConWay, not Panther - but I have to say that Panther allowed all drivers to choose whether to Continue under the ConWay contract, or switch to Panther's. That was quite a generous gesture, I think. BTW: I was envious of the cool FedWx colors in...

Zak & Holly, just 30 miles south, on the south side of the Turnpike, is the Strongsville Chalet in the Metroparks, for tobogganing, and Inventure Place in Akron is an awesome mix of invention and adventure, if you wanna be indoors. Both places are a great day trip!

I don't feel ConWay "sold me out" - I feel they sold a company. Nothing personal, just how business works. As for the relevance of the subject, the topic is whether Panther is intending to buy another carrier, so the recent purchase of a company by Panther would be relevant, no? There are ways...
