I keep my spare keys under one the running light lenses on top of the cab, or inside one of the outside lights somewhere.(one ignition,one door). I tape them together, and tape them down to the body under the lens, so they won´t move. I can always find a screw driver to get at them. The belt...

Daddy, how was I born? DAD SAYS: Ah, my son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway! Well, you see your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on MSN. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother...

I heard many years ago that a diesel engine does not emit carbon monoxide, because of it's efficiency. That is the reason you can sleep in your truck and not have to worry. It's the gas engines that are dangerous. I have asked this question of many a mechanic and some say it's true, some say no...

Two antennas meet on a roof, fall in love and get married. The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was excellent. Two hydrogen atoms walk into a bar. One says, "I've lost my electron." The other says, "Are you sure?" The first replies, "Yes, I'm positive..." A jumper cable walks into a...

RE: I had to concentrate to get this one...funny!

A good one Tom! I´ll forward that to all my pun loving friends.

Auto transport is not my cup of tea. I may just go back to big rig and stay in expediting, or go big rig in another area. I always ran team. This will only be my second time out as a single in my trucking career. Just looking for feedback and input, as to what´s out there.

Pulled from the shelves by the yuppie generation. Remeber thos books Mommy or daddy used to read to you when you were little. Then along came Dr. suess, and the Yuppies and rearranged the rules of child rearing. The first thing they did was pull all the books. Here is a list of hard to find...

I´m familiar with hotshot, and there are any number of rig combinations on the road. I think a flatbed lowboy or drop deck would be the ideal setup for expediting if the freight is out there. As Preacher mentioned, maybe it already is out there but called by a different name(hotshot). I read a...

Thanks Preacher. That´s the kind of info I´m curious about. I´m taking some extended time off right now, but when I come back out I will be running single for awhile. I´m not so sure expediting will be for me as a single. In my tractor trailer days, I used to do alot of specialized liftgate, and...

I posted a couple of weeks ago, asking about trucking/expediting and trends, and didn´t get the answer to my question. What I was trying to find out, is, for example in expediting, if you´rea single, do you see any specialty areas that are starting to open?(super D units, super B units or...

Abe Lincoln said "you can´t please all of the people all of the time"..or something like that. I think this may have been posted on the forum before, but it deserves another shot. I think this pretty much explains it all on any forum I´ve ever participated on. HOW MANY FORUM POSTERS DOES IT...

After a long night of making love, he notices a photo of another man on her nightstand by the bed. He begins to worry. "Is this your husband?" he nervously asks. "No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him. "Your boyfriend, then?" he continues. "No, not at all," she says, nibbling...

I want to thank all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me your damn chain letters over the past three or four years. Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed, and wealthy. Because of your concern... I no longer can drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains...

In my other post I asked for your predictions for 2005, and the answers were about the economy and the stock market. Maybe I wasn´t specific enough. I´d like to hear your predictions for trucking/expediting, with emphasis on the directions the industry is taking. Not the economic side, but the...

I posted this on the General Expediters branch, but would like to hear the input from recruiting side. I know that none of us has the proverbial crystal ball, but I do think we see trends on the horizon, even if we don´t recognize them. I´m taking time off, and when and if I come back out on...
