    great life before expediting

    Greg - a little late, I was looking for another post, & just saw yours. The answer is : I have no idea how much wood a woodchuck would chuck, etc...(I'm an idiot about computers, which is ironic, cause I had one before anyone else I knew - before Windows, even. I had a password for the internet...

    My house was broken into

    When we always figure it will happen to the other guy, we're right - we just forget that sometimes we ARE the other guy... I'm sick of hearing that we should let them stay, because they take the jobs that Americans won't - how about we send them home, & then deal with why Americans don't want...

    Believe in Miracles

    In six years of working on the Trauma Unit in a major county hospital, dealing with head injuries often, I witnessed an event like yours just two times. In both cases, the absolute joy, even for the staff, is overwhelming - I'm glad it happened for you.

    brain trick

    Wow - that is scary! But almost as much fun as watching other people get hypnotized & do stuff they don't think they would! Cool!:D

    THE HELL TEST

    Highway Star - you are such a brat! But "wild child" is an apt description, and like Tim McGraw, I decided to grow up in my next thirty years. Haven't made it yet, but I feel boring as hell lately, that's for sure! (Sometimes, boring is a million times better than the alternatives, though) :P

    You might be an expediter if...

    When you're sitting at home on Monday, phone rings with load offer - & you're packed, loaded, & on the road in 15 minutes flat... When you're laying over in Memphis, but you're actually in Arkansas, or Mississippi, where everyone else is too.... When you bypass a fast food place where you...

    SAY WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Broom, he may be your good friend, but a guy with a wife, who invites lot lizards into his truck, is no better than the lizards. I'ts a shame that he doesn't have to explain that to his wife & kids - they deserve to know who he is, wouldn't you agree? I wish I'd known the "real" guy I was...

    It's time for a ban

    It would be so nice if smokers & non could just quit bugging each other! But when aggressive & competitive sports require a feature on the front page of every paper, every day, along with an entire section devoted to the subject, and no newscast is complete without the "scores", along with...

    Is there something wrong here?

    So, when $12 an hr jobs are the norm, without any pension, (companies are reneging on them every day now), and not much hope for Social Security, (the federal govt raided the surplus to make up for the tax breaks to corporations & wealthy citizens, and to help pay the obscenely expensive cost of...

    Computer Problem

    Thanks, Broom, for the heads-up, and ATeam for elaborating on the possible causes. I have Norton Security 05 on my desktop, (SpySweeper on the laptop), & the problem I have with Norton is the parental control function. It occasionally refuses to allow me to access perfectly innocent information...

    What would you do?

    I guess my belief that those methods to beat a drug test don't work is unfounded, then? I've always considered drug tests to be an invasion of privacy, and if people can fool the tests - then it's a pointless invasion of privacy, as well. (Not to mention hypocritical - the government was...

    If you climb into the driver's seat & think "Home at last", you might be an expediter! :P

    THE HELL TEST

    Yikes - 148!! Without ever licking an eyeball, either - yeechh! Yep, I used to be a little wild - but like Toby's lament, "I aint the (woman) I once was"....I reformed a long time ago, except for hoping I don't end up with Alzheimers! :P

    Tri State's No Forced Dispatch Rule

    If essentially putting you OOS for 12 hrs, by refusing to offer loads isn't blatant punishment, what the heck is?! Carriers don't force you to accept loads - they just let you know that refusal entails consequences, & it's up to you to decide. ConWay will put you at the bottom of the list, (...

    A Barrel of Monkeys

    Like Highway Star, I wrap straps around the drum/s in both directions, secured to ETrack on the floor, and I add a 2x8 board dropped into ETrack sockets, both in front of, & behind - & I drive like I'm hauling glass! :o

    Birthday! What Does Your Birthday Mean?

    Easy - if you weren't compatible, she'd be throwing your stuff out on the lawn instead of yelling cause you didn't mow it, lol :P

    SAY WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Guess you don't turn off the radio & listen to the CB, like me. The first time it happened to me, I was in the sleeper, sleeping with the curtains closed when a woman knocked on the door. She was so clearly surprised to see a woman appear in the truck window, that I thought it was funny. But...
