Fishing is not an excuse to drink beer? :eek: Oh, that's right: it's an excuse to drink beer AND tell lies, lol. Hope you enjoy every minute of it, TJ.

Perkey: please take the time to read the Newbies and Newbies FAQ forums, as the answers you seek can be found there. Welcome to EO, and happy reading!

Thanks for the info, Joe, and the nudge - it's appreciated. And ladies: if your sole support system is the bra you're (one hopes) wearing, there are lots of us available here, for you. :) Speak up!

You guys are more fun than reruns of "Soap", lol. :D I'm gonna try drying my Bob Feller ball with that dessicant (used to dry flowers), and see if I can pass it off as a Jackson Pollock - whattaya think? If it sells for a brazillion bucks, I'll split with Moot: 60/40, plus a dessicant surcharge...

So when Moot slapped a bumpersticker on my truck, (a nonoffensive one, for a pizza place in Minnesota), he was making me look like a driver prone to road rage, eh? Well, good! Maybe it caused folks to think twice about cutting me off, lol. Or not, cause those folks don't think, looks like. PS...

Shawn, have you looked carefully at that contract, to see what it says about the possibility of your not being accepted by Werner? If you are really stuck, perhaps pointing out the obvious to the school's financial aid person (you can't pay, if you can't get a job), will help. If that gets you...

Cheri key words "I'd still consider the stand alone unit superior" That may be for you those things wouldn't work for someone like me. As far as someone pulling in front of me well my alarm would go off. I have the eaton vorad system which sounds an alarm BEFORE the car is fully in front of me...

Walkerman, I'd say you need to move again - to another carrier! You can't keep running that way, (more DH than loaded miles) you know. :mad: Hope you find a better spot, soon.

Update: I sent an email to CLC, asking whether the card entitles one to a 24 hr stay, and today I got a reply. According to Heather Brown (of Corporate Lodging), it does. Of course, the email arrived after I'd checked out, :( but I will print it out, in case I need it for backup, next time...

Shawn, why will the school not release your graduation certificate? Seems to me that if you earned it, your history of 'incidents' is irrelevant.

So, when can we expect you to publish the first edition of "Places that (probably) won't make you puke"? :confused: Compared to raising chinchillas, writing & editing should be cake, eh?:D

Would the words you're groping for be "prurient interest"? At least you know that if reincarnation exists, you'd rather not come back as a bumblebee, though. :p

On the other hand, many folks have told me of accidents they haven't managed to avoid having, so your point, or conclusion, is what, exactly?:confused:

Moot is seen in all the best places, though sometimes in disguise, lol.

I'm so glad you're here! I enjoy reading whatever you post, and hope to see lots more, ok?

I'm impressed, Hawk: stealing lines from Mick Jagger & John Sebastian, in the same reply, lol.:D

Can't think of any reason why a dispatcher, or anyone else, should give a "rat's ask" :D for such misleading tripe as this 'study'. Were it conducted with drivers who are accustomed to driving at night, the results obtained would be very different, no doubt, and far more reliable a gauge of...

I loved "Marley and me" too, and recommend it highly. Prof: you can use any anatomical feature you choose, to fill in my sigline, but for public consumption, I prefer "pinhead" :D

A basic rule of thumb is that a load which would cost you the chance of obtaining another load within a reasonable timeframe, (more than 12 hrs, say), is one that should pay for that time. If your carrier doesn't want to pay it, when they are, (or ought to be) collecting it, then I personally...

Welcome to EO, where "argumentative" can be a GOOD thing, lol.
