Even if you don't like country music, you have to admire the sense of humor - thanks, Lou. :7

Last night, I was enroute to Dayton, Oh, with a load onboard for a 7 am delivery, when the QC beeped with a load offer: pickup at 4 am Sun, deliver 100 miles away, FS of 09 cents. I called Panther, explained that after my delivery in Dayton, I was headed for home, only 200 miles away. I said I...

What Dreamer said!

Highway Star is correct: taking responsibility for your words and actions, is a mantra of conservatives, and Republicans, along with being the right thing to do. In my opinion, it is cowardice to feel the need to hide your identity. If you aren't willing to admit to it, you shouldn't do it, or...

Lawrence, that is priceless! We don't have witty people like them anymore - now, and I put myself in this category, we have only half wits! A favorite example of the kind of wit that's sadly missed: Noel Coward & Winston Churchill were friends. Coward once sent Churchill a telegram, saying "Am...

Terry, I really don't expect Garcia to go anywhere without me, but it's good to know - life is full of surprises...Thanks! :)

One big advantage to driving a van is that you can park overnite just about anywhere. In a pinch, I've parked at 24 hr grocery stores, restaurants, and gas stations. Showers are usually cheaper at the independent truckstops, and free at the newer rest areas on the Ohio Turnpike :) just bring...

A carrier that is concerned about retaining the good o/os & drivers, would address the drivers' concerns, not penalize them for refusing to put the carrier's best interests ahead of their own. It seems to me that many of the terms of the contracts are enough to justify calling o/o employees...

Well, since Dreamer's probably going to tell anyway, I may as well fess up first: there is no such person as Joebob. He's entirely a figment of my imagination.

Heck, I bet she's almost as smart as a rose collar, too! :+ :+ :+

The hobby I've developed lately is trying to find places for all the things that just appear in the van, like fairies dropped them off or something, lol. And then, trying to remember where that 'perfect' place that I finally decided to put it was, exactly. :7

Wonder how much money Anderson Consulting got for proving what is obvious to anyone who follows the news, lol. I got one of four - doesn't thst mean I should be in the golden parachute & consulting for life category? :+

>There is a great animonsity betweeen Rich M. and the A-Team. > Maybe, maybe not. We aren't required to love everyone here, just to be civil, and I have never seen anything less from RichM. >Rich M. probably was a good driver. > Were his qualifications as a driver questioned? >As a...

I didn't know - thanks, Terry! :)

Well, thank you Linder - and thank goodness for "social promotion" in school, or I could still be in the third grade! ROFLMAO!!

What TallCall & apparently, McBride, too, are saying about President Bush is what I was saying before he was elected - and a lot of people who thought I was crazy then, don't think so now. How come whenever anyone points out that this Emperor has no clothes, his apologists can only refer to...

If I were the judge, they'd spend 20 years in prison, followed by 10 years of digging graves for everyone in their town who was killed by a reckless driver. And be required to assist the EMT's at accidents caused by reckless drivers. In their spare time, they could make public service...

NJ Gov Jon Corzine signed a bill making NJ the 12th state to adopt a law limiting protests at funerals for servicemembers killed in combat....The bill's sponsor, Assemblyman Jack Connors, introduced the bill after a Kansas church group began protesting at funerals of troops killed in Iraq. The...

So maybe my 'bad luck' was, after all good luck - I tried to visit Garcia's earlier this week, as I was headed north through Indiana on Sunday. I figured it would be too late for Sunday dinner, but thought I might detour back after my Mon morning delivery, for lunch. I got the phone number, map...

>What a relief! I am entitled to my own opinion........as >long as I keep it to myself. That is profound! No, MSinger, it isn't profound, nor is it even close to what I said. Your opinion is welcome here, as long as you remain civil, and can defend what you say in this public forum. So...
