    I have never delivered to the caves as an expediter. Twice in a big truck. I remember picking up a drop and hook trailer load of peanut butter delivering to the caves. The load was on the floor but on slip sheets. My first experience with slip sheets. They had a slip sheet lift to unload...

    The Trump Card...

    I believe there are quite a few liberals that clamor for more gun control but wouldn't freely admit that they owned guns. Think politicians and Hollywood types.

    Should I buy 2 or 4 winter tires?

    I've got a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee that I kinda re-inherited from my kids. I put 4 snow tires on it and run those year round. This car is lucky to see 2000 miles a year so I can't see messing around with 8 tires. Even it was a daily commuter I would put snows on all four positions for the...

    Had a good week despite a couple of screw-ups, but was well compensated. Currently at home with a 5 pound load delivering Monday morning and getting two days layover pay. Its only Friday and I got a good start on next week.

    Now Texas, another shooting- in a church

    I believe people that commit mass murder have some mental health issues. Maybe not diagnosed but that doesn't mean they don't have a serious problem.

    Now Texas, another shooting- in a church

    The Texas shootings are mostly the fault of Trump and his mental health policies. It's true, I heard it on NPR. All Things Considered host Kelly McEvers talked with NPR health policy correspondent Alison Kodjak about the Trump administration's record on mental health care. McEvers: So I want...

    I have to sit at the shipper until 06:00 to collect detention pay. There is no place close to layover so I will spend the night here. I usually sleep well when getting paid by the hour. Come morning this load will be a dry run because the freight isn't here. More money for doing nothing but...

    Going on hour number 3 of waiting at the shipper for freight that isn't here. It went out on UPS shortly before I arrived. The shipper has been closed for an hour and the paying customer hasn't responded.

    Now Texas, another shooting- in a church

    I can walk into any Home Depot and with a flick of my Visa Card and a valid driver's license, dive out in minutes, gassed up and ready to kill.

    Need help deciding on repair

    What you need to do is weigh your van empty and subtract that weight from the manufacturer's posted GVWR. That's the maximum weight you should carry. Its clueless people like you that keep van rates low. If you can't make money hauling legally and safely find another line of work.

    My 2015 Ford Transit 3.2L I5 Diesel after 1 month review

    Because the American Soy Bean Growers Association and the National Corn Growers Association paid good money to have our representatives in Washington to pass legislation requiring corn and soybeans to be added to fossil fuel. Are you some kind of subversive that you would question bio-fuels...

    What do we look like?

    I resemble that. Hopefully some day we will meet and you can prove that. Also, I do not look like Fish from Barney Miller. More like my avatar with less fur on top.
