Wow, celebrating your birthday on the Loading Dock forum and this forum! Good thing I baked an extra, dark chockolate birthday cake. Happy birthday to you and your co-driver! (Insert several happy birthday smiley faces here) . .

If you're talking standard 48"x40" 4-way pallets you can load 10 or if you turn them 12.

Happy Birthday Cheri! I baked this dark chockolate cake especially for you. . .

Good stuff! The following one caught my attention. I believe it was written by an E.O. member. Jan 28, 2010 Area 51 Many people go about this here place, but if you only knew, forget what you see on the surface of this place, Area 51 has many underground units - some that...

I guess it is refreshing to see this slanted and twisted blog crap coming from the left for a change on the Soapbox. Change is good. But it is still crap. It is not a federal-subsidized health care policy. It is an employer-subsidized health care policy and the employer happens to be the...

Sounds like that place behind CNH. Hope you didn't lose your van in a pot hole.

Once again, major buzz kill. If we want a dose of reality, we will ask for it! Maybe even before the fact.

That kinda puts things into a different perspective. I'm thinking about driving back to Baraboo for the weekend. But that would be more bad deadhead miles. I'm so confused. I should probably delay my vacation until the end of January and keep it to about 10 days total as planned. I have a...

Paid vacations. Yeah I like that concept! I haven't had a paid vacation in almost 14 years. If I deadhead to Florida tomorrow I could stay OOS until after the first of the year and consider it a paid vacation. How warm is that! Jeff, I'm on my way!

I like this new math. I just deadheaded home from Baraboo, WI. I have a dentist appointment Monday morning. Um, 225 negative deadhead miles... wow this load paid almost $3.00/mile! I'm thinking about after the dentist thing I may just go OOS until Friday. Does this new math work towards my...

Never mind.

Maybe Load 1 could get their own thing going in the carriers forum. At least they are not posting here!http://www.expeditersonline.com/forum/general-expediter-forum/33705-thread-you-can-use-when-you-need.html

(add confused smiley face thing here) Up to a straight truck? You are confused my friend. I spent 20 years driving T/T to achieve my goal and reach the pinnacle of the trucking industry: cargo van O/O. Why would I regress at this stage in my life? You said all of your kids are grown expect...

I agree with eb. If expediting doesn't work out for you, keep the van as your personal vehicle or sell it to a tradesperson. I can't see working for an owner with a van.

Re: Annoying banter Count me as another member sick and tired of all this annoying banter. I log on to E.O. to view the advertisements and don't appreciate all this chit chat about band width and ad munchies. Talk to me Julie!

Seattle is 2° further north than Bison. I like Daylight Savings Time and I am currently building a side business involving DST. This business is based on the same business plan as the Chicago Climate Exchange. Instead of buying and trading carbon credits I buy and trade minutes in bundles of...

Speaking of "hoser"; I enjoyed your Canadien slang post but noticed the term hoser was absent. What gives, eh! As for turkeys, I have a friend who will be deep frying his bird this Thanksgiving and dumping the left over cooking oil into his fuel tanks. Instant bio-diesel. OPEC can choke on a...

Were you trying to lease a truck or get a loan from Innovative Leasing Services? How did you go about having them prosecuted? What are the charges? Why would this "slime ball outfit Penske recommends" pay to have 30 different credit checks on you? How can several different credit checks...

One can always find "proof" to support their position on the internet! Turkey Prices Hit Record Before Thanksgiving on Feed Costs - Bloomberg

Compared to what? I think one of Sir Isaac Newton's 3 Laws of Motion will support the 63 mph theory.
