It is still snowing here, non-stop....In-service startup time may have a snow delay...Anyone ever notice how Northern bathroom tissue (toiletpaper) has become so much narrower lately? LOL...

Humm, ever think that the paper is the same size as always, and something else may be getting bigger....lol

Wonder if he has a tat there that say
"Narrow Road Ahead?":p

I bet you'd like to know, OVM !! LOL !! I guess that is the way you people roll up there in the middle of nowhere !! LOL !! It must get pretty lonely up there !! LOL !!

But really, it is like an inch or so narrower. Ever notice cereal boxes? Same thing.Jars of Ragu Spaghetti sauce, the bottom is inverted.Klondike bars are more like wafers now.Bags of potato chips, are like snack size now.But through all of this, prices havent changed much, just the quantity.

In-service startup time has been delayed a day due to the 18 inches of snow we got since yesterday, and the additional 9 inches falling now...news at 11.

Looks like you don't need to hurry. My scouts say it is very slow. 1 has been in service since the week before Christmas and has not even had a call. But, he is only 30 miles from me...he was still there this morning. 25 here snow in the area but none here yet.

Nevermind. Just as I slid into detention--dry run. Four days and a 310 mile deadhead for $66.70. And I cancelled a trip to visit a fellow eo team and see my neice off to school for this load. Don't anyone expect any favors this week.
