    Cheap Freight to No Freight

    IDK, maybe I'm just a big ole dummy, but I play by the frickin' rules so I want the frickin' work :mad: It's time to get rid of the cheaters by any legitimate means possible (no, I do not advocate violence).

    He was in an 80mph zone, going about 105 or so; probably lost track* of where he was and came up on the curve sooner than he expected to. He applied full brakes, but it was waaay too late. (Source: NTSB briefing at 1715) *pun not intended, as ain't nothing funny about this.

    Safe back in PA* after a run into NYS. Flying J, i-81 exit 219, New Milford PA. *I'm one of those pro-life, pro-gun "extremists" whom Governor Andrew Cuomo has declared to be unwelcome in the People's Democratic Republic of New York.

    What happened to Eclipse Expediting?

    THIS is why I'm with Square One now :) It's time to lay down the law and ensure that everyone becomes compliant. That alone will separate a lot of the chaff from the wheat. Another thing we can do is to inform the authorities about the need to weigh cubes (six-wheel ones at least) so that we...

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    An African American family moved onto my block in 1974. They turned out to be the kind of neighbors anyone would be pleased and proud to have :) Dad was an HVAC professional :cool: ; the kids went on to colleges and good careers. This proves Dr. King's statement about "content of their...

    Hotelier Looking For Some Advice

    I'm unsavory; too much gristle. :p Seriously, though, we don't want the OP to get the wrong idea. Cargo van drivers usually just want the luxury of being able to stretch out in bed once in a while. Being able to just stumble into the bathroom naked at 3:30am to pee, instead of having to get...

    Not just no. Hell no :eek::confused: If Hooters saw that, they'd confiscate every shirt they've ever issued or sold :p

    OK, so I decide to get an oil change at a place in my new town. I find one that has my favorite oil, Mobil One. While I am there, they manage to drop a Camry off the other lift. Oh well, guess I'll find another shop to do the next service... :o

    OMG I shoulda slept in the van!

    Truth! That's why I stayed in Eutaw, AL the other week instead of Tuscaloosa. I'm not a 'Tide fan, so I had no compelling reason to pay what might have been twice the rate.

    April "Rabbit rabbit rabbit"

    OK, time to fine-tune the censor filter again. When it parses a mild expletive out of the middle of an otherwise innocuous word, it's set too tight. Or, OTOH, you could drop the censoring entirely. Are we not grownups here?

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Rioting is not the same as protesting. Think back to Bloody Sunday (Selma, 3/9/65): the African Americans marching across the bridge were protesting. The police rioted.
