    Detergent Praises

    Dear Tide: I'm writing to say what an excellent product you have! I've used it since the beginning of my married life, when my Mom told me it was the best. Now that I am older and going through menopause, I find it even better! In fact, about a month ago, I spilled some red wine on my new...

    Trucking 101. The way it is.

    When asking for a mileage figure for all miles, I think some of you are missing the "key word" in what I was trying to say. The word "DEPENDS".

    Points To Ponder

    1. Now that food has replaced sex in my life, I can't even get into my own pants. 2. Marriage changes passion. Suddenly you're in bed with a relative. 3. I saw a woman wearing a sweat shirt with "Guess" on it. So I said "Implants?" She hit me. 4. I don't do drugs. I get the same...

    What did you accomplish in 2003?

    And what are you looking for in 2004? Put it down here, and not necessarily your trucking accomplishments only. I ran less this year than in previous years, but it was my choice, not business slowdown. I probably actually ran under 6 months the whole year, and some of that was for a friend...
