This is in response to the recent posts concerning "what does it take to get good teams to run for you", and also the other side "what do you look for in a carrier", etc. There is no big secret. The number one answer is M-O-N-E-Y. That´s what we all work for first and foremost. The recruiter has...

This was posted a couple of times in the past to answer newbie questions, which seem to be repeatedly asked on this and other forums here on EO. I thought now would be a good time to repeat it, as I´ve recieved a few emails asking about it over the months. I hope this helps those of you...

Two friends were discussing popular family trends on sex, marriage, and values. Stu said, "I didn't sleep with my wife before we got married, did you?" Leroy replied, "I'm not sure, What was her maiden name?" "Mr. Clark, I have reviewed this case very carefully," the divorce court Judge...

SITTING BEHIND A COUPLE OF NUNS AT A BASEBALL GAME (WHO'S HABITS PARTIALLY BLOCKED THE VIEW), THREE MEN DECIDED TO BADGER THE NUNS IN AN EFFORT TO GET THEM TO MOVE. IN A VERY LOUD VOICE, THE FIRST GUY SAID,"I THINK I'M GOING TO MOVE TO UTAH, THERE ARE ONLY 100 NUNS LIVING THERE." THE SECOND...

A very wealthy midget with a speech impediment arrived at a horse farm and asked to see the manager. When the manager ushered him into his office the midget says "Hellwo, I´m here to buy a wace horth". The manager tells him ,"At the present time the only horse we have for sale is a two year old...

Broompilot. I don´t go overboard, as there are some things that can´t be discounted. Usually it´s the higher priced items for business or personal use. I´d say you can save an average of 10 % on many things just by asking. You´d be surprised what merchants are willing to do if you´re spending...

There probably are a few different programs out there that I need to check out, but I stay away from cards, as you have to review the statement, which I never get on a timely basis. All cards have a hook. I did try the debit card, but again, the record keeping that I had to match up with my...

Broompilot. The ATM limit is sometimes a problem, but the easy solution is two draws, but only when necessary. Call your bank and see what they can do for you. These days I draw $500 in most places to avoid the limit, and I do the draw when I´m down to $100 or$200 in my pocket, depending where...

Cash. I never use fuel cards, and never have except when I worked as a company driver. I used to use com checks, but that was years ago before I saw the error of my ways. I added up the cost, and it was around $1000 per year. For years now I just take my ATM card and draw $600 "expense money"...

Do your research on the engine. The Cat 3126 is not what I would want in an expediter. Take that into consideration when pricing. Do a search right here on EO, and you should get alot of feedback about tha engine, from those who have had experience with them.

Hey kswish. This one and the one about the birthday...REALLY FUNNY! Consider them swiped and sent on...hahahahaha!...Louixo

This is the message the Pacific Palisades California High School staff voted unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine. It was recorded after the school implemented a policy requiring students and parents to be responsible for their children's absences and missing...

Yes...Worth a click.

Though I rarely comment, I DO read all of your tax advice, and appreciate the effort you put into it to inform us all, and answer questions. Thanks, Frank.

Here´s a suggestion. Go to one of the companies that offer training, like North American Van Lines, or Swift etc. There are many companies out there that have paid or inexpensive training. Take thier course, and learn how to do it the right way, and then work for them for awhile. You´ll get...

I wouldn´t. The cat 3126 seems to start having problems about the 300k mileage mark. They are expensive to rebuild. Allison automatic in a road truck carrying weight, is also dicey. I had a 3126 engine in a D unit, and I´ll never own another. There´s alot of comment and info on that engine if...

A bus stops and two Italian men get on. They sit down and engage in an animated conversation. The lady sitting behind them ignores them at first, but her attention is galvanized when she hears one of the men say the following: "Emma come first. Den I come. Den two asses come together. I come...

Some programmers either have too much time on thier hands, or are frustrated entertainers. Every now and again, you get to see some real genius..fun, useless genius. This falls into that category. Go here. Click on each horse. http://svt.se/hogafflahage/hogafflaHage_site/Kor/hestekor.swf

For what it´s worth department. There was alot of press concerning Mexican drivers coming into the USA a few months back. I was in Mexico at the time doing some r&r, and I tuned into the Mexican TV network news. At the time, the Mexican president was making an issue of the NAFTA agreement, and...
