Stop, you're killing me Dale! "Tattoo'd Freaks" Thats right and don't forget it! LOL Really cool tats you got! Same here with the sleeved shirts and customers here.

Simply explain to the moron at the gate that you WILL NOT tie your dog to the fence and leave it, nor will you put the dog in a crate/cage and leave it outside. Tell him/her that is cruelty to animals which is against the law. Tell him/her that your dog is a family member and that you are sure...

OK, with that said I'm gonna go for broke here and will probably get deleted! LOL As I said before, Midnight Angel was my first and was done at a biker's tattoo shop (Strokers Ink Dallas, TX). Into the tat shop the wife and I went with idea in hand and my artist said no problem. Give me...

Both of my current tats are originals (not from tattoo flash images). Both of my tattoo artist took my ideas and drew them by hand to create the tat. A good tattoo artist is good with both pencil and a needle. I got my Midnight Angel done at Strokers Ink in Dallas, TX which is in with...

Our storage boxes down both sides of our stepdeck trailer do the same and more. They to cut down the amount of road spray that we kick up. Plus they give us plenty of storage for our many custom tarps and equipment. Also improve our MPG. And they look nicer! :D

Although we currently do not have a dog onboard, we are in the process of changing that. Our carrier allows their contractors to have onboard pets if they choose. We have researched the pros and cons of having a pet (dog) with other teams leased to our carrier Our conclusion is: We are a team...

Love how the dragon is integrated into the Ying & Yang! I have kicked around the idea of starting a thread on EO about member tats, but wasn't sure if anyone would really respond. So thanks Leo for getting it started.:D As expediters for different expedite carriers, it would be interesting...

No regrets here and a great story to go with it! I'm sure the forum police will find a reason to pull this post. LOL

If the customer chooses to hold our truck to insure that ground transportation is available once the engine arrives, then we get detention time, or they forfeit the truck and take their chances on another truck being readily available when needed. In watching a Fox News report today, several...

Man I love pulling my stepdeck in Texas! Cops can see most everything I've got onboard. You think if I chained and strapped some illegals to the deck the Texas Rangers would arrest me for illegal bondage? :p:p

Greg, I wish you were correct and you very well may be, but read my thread "Spewing volcanoes/ declining revenue" and you will see that areas of ground transportation are in fact already being impacted. Greatly! My wife and I are only a very small piece of the overall picture. Example: Our...

Because our carrier has been keeping us quite busy since the beginning of the year, we've not paid attention to the world news in the past few days. No time to watch the tube! But the events of today's loads have given us good cause to fire up the satilite and watch the news! We sit here at...

In defense of the non professional drivers, when a vehicle suddenly kicks in every horsepower (475hp in our case) and excellerates at a very rapid rate, many thoughts go through one's mind and have to be processed, plus a proper reaction determined and implimented in a very short period of time...

For a few days I was beginning to believe that our Kenworth had Toyota parts instead of Paccar in it. Especially when it started acting like a "run away Toyota!" Now I'm sure some will think this thread needs to be in truck talk, and thats fine if the moderators want to move it. I just want...

Careful who you slam on this web forum, especially Steve! He has LOTS of friends here! LOL Al of us that know you Steve, also know that you will be an asset to the team at Tri-State! Good luck to you! Sure you don't wanna come haul jet engines and aircraft wings and landing gear with us? LOL

I'm sure you are correct Dave.I would imagine that Swift (if that's correct) was a stepping stone company for Glen to get back into T/Ts with the better carriers for insurance reasons like so many that go from T/Ts to straights and back again.

Thats really great to hear that Glen is now with National Van Lines. I had no idea they did airplane engines. He must be doing the smaller engines for private and corporate aircraft. Glen was quite helpful and instrumental in helping with our decision to buy the large sleeper tractor we now...

And always remember to laugh all the way to the bank to collect the money you just made for dealing with the PIA! :p

I think this comment can be applied to expedited freight customers as a whole. These customers seem more appreciative of your efforts and treat you in a more professional manner than the shiper/receivers at food and logistics warehouses ever thought of. We got out of lockup in the hanger...
