January was very good at both Ceva and Towne Air.
February, Ceva has been dead in past three weeks only worked two days for them, Towne has kept me fairly busy.
Rumors are going around that Ceva might close the Fort Wayne office since our stuff is trucked down from South Bend anyways
we have lost two office people with no replacement. If that happens, who knows what I'll do.

start looking or just do the hotshot deliveries..

How is it historical?

I mean it's snow, not a storm with lighting and thunder and an occasional flying cow?

It is snow, something that happens every year around this time in that part of the country.

Or are they exempt from the snow thing?

Nearly every storm has been labeled historic this year...where that came from I have no idea...:cool:

Since global warming has proved to be a hoax they have got to hype snow storms to bolster the climate change theory.

Looks like you got a late night load.

Well i guess the people don't know what a dictionary is.

It is like this morning, had to drive to U of M in the nice weather, even with black ice. The local idiot news station was talking about the mess on I-96 near Brighton, which is always a mess. They kept saying "the is nothing but gridlock on east bound 96" Gridlock? Doesn't that mean that there is no movement in four directions like a grid? New York, Chicago but one direction on a freeway?

Listening on the way back, they are talking about the Wings and playing back some spot from a few years ago going into the new season "...the Defending Champions, the wings will be ..." The wings were not defending champions, they were the last season champions. When there is a defending champion, they don't go through playoffs but meet with an opponent at the end of the season to see if they lose their championship status. Think Boxing.

By the way every snowfall is historical, because it becomes history after it happens.

Dead in the water. Drove into St Louis in limp mode. Second breakdown this week. Third this month. One of the breakdowns only cost $700. This time it's a thing called a swirl valve. Danthewolf00 can tell you about those things. It involves dropping the transmission, $3500, and backordered parts.
