Ole Sprinterson, dat dare van uf yurs mus be Norvegian instead of Yerman, ya. Wow, 800,000 miles. That's like almost 1.3 million Canadien or 32 times around the Earth at the equator. Very impressive. 2½ or so years to the one million mile mark? Go for it!

I don't think that was a typo. No surprise he is hanging out there. One of his relatives, a giant orange moose, lives there.

Is this in reference to the happy ending massage or are you talking about something else?

I have picked up and delivered to those and others at O'Hare and I have also picked up at other FedEx air cargo facilities and never dealt with security like this.

No gate. They never checked my van and allowed me to exit the building after going through security and out to my van. That's what makes this so absurd and why I posted about it.

What do you expect from a company called Fo Scam?

Today I picked up an air freight shipment from FedEx Heavy Weight at O'Hare. Irving Park Road has been rerouted and the road into the air freight terminals has also been drastically changed. I'm glad I did this by the light of day. It looks like a new runway is being built or maybe someone...

It appears Hillary will not be running for president in 2016.

Nothing wrong with a therapeutic message that has a happy ending.

As a confirmed techno-tard, I find what you are doing wrong is using Windows 8. What you are missing is Windows 7!

Search for a ringtone of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, the part with the cannon shots.

In LTL I have had consignees refuse shipments because of damage. Instead of accepting the shipment with a damage notation and filing a claim, they refuse it. Sometimes a consignee will refuse a load because the billing terms are freight collect and they were under the impression that the...

Even Edgar Bergen would have a difficult time making Biden sound intelligent. Of course he's been dead for 30 years. Bergen, not Biden.

Yeah, at least 10%. Prior to buying my first van I ran all the numbers. I padded them just to be safe. Fuel was the greatest variable so I carried that number way out to the extreme of $1.50/gallon. I figured worst case, if gasoline got to $1.50/gallon, I could still make my van payment and...

Arrrrrrrgonauts.

Are! The Grammar Police are working... Are, arrrr, the Grammar Pirates arrrr working today.

Yeah full rate and plenty of time on the return end. I was with Con-Way at the time. They had an LTL terminal in nearby Rockfish. I don't know why they had me bring it back to the shipper at expedite rates.

Good question! In my LTL days refused loads were quite common. As an expedite driver I have had a few consignees refuse to unload my van, even though they had a forklift and ramp. In one case the customer got involved and jacked up the consignee (USPS) and eventually I got unloaded. Another...

Infamous? I don't like seeing that adjective in front of my name. If it was entirely up to me, I'd nix the award just because of the "infamous" crack. Kim has the final say though and he pointed out the fact that you did provide enough thorough, objective and hard data to receive the...

Lakehurst, New Jersey? Maybe Mr. Newmon was participating in a historical reenactment of the Hindenburg disaster. "Oh, the humanity!"
