Uh, Lawrence,

I wish you'd gotten with me before posting.

Unfortunately, I used the 20 dollar gift certificate
for gas for my truck, I gave the T/A jacket to
my brother-in-law and I'm using the T/A coffee mug
right now.

The good news is - we've got some of the pens left!:7

RE: Let's have Some Fun With Prizes!

Hi All!!!
Most of you guys and gals don't know me, but if you rate me (just go to the right just under my name and click on rate this user) I'll make it a point to send you all the info you need to get to know who I am. If that isn't good enough then I'll invite you to the house for dinner and a chit-chat. If you are to tired to drive after that great big delicious meal, just move over and I'll get you to your destination. So remember brothers and sisters, rate me so I can win that $20.00. I need it to do some runs, the fumes in my tank are evaporating very fast.

All in fun :7 :9 :) :+ ;) :p }> :eek: :D

I still need some more people to rate me so I can get some gas to do this run.:7 :7 :7. I've been begging dispatch to hold on to it untill Sunday night when I win the $20.00 from Lawrence:) :) :). You may as well go ahead and rate me so I can win, because if you don't}> then I'll just have to borrow the money to get the gas}> and you all know how long it takes for a loan to me paid back}>. So just rate me and save yourself the $20.00 loan:p :p :p.

It appears we have a tie. So we will extend the TA giveaway contest until next Sunday (November 4, 2001) evening or whenever the tie is broken.

Thanks,

Re-count,Re-count!:7 :7 :7
Whow was it? that was in the tie anyway?x( x( x(

Looks to me like I still have a shot at that run after all!:7
I was shocked as hell to get in an find that dispatch not only held the run for me to do but another 850 miles was added to the point of delivery, and as I sit here typing this Fable, the phone rings and it now becomes a round trip. Totle miles in all 5152.08 What a pay check
:7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7 :7
BUT, with out your help I can't do that run, I need some gas money to get me started and if you all would just rate me and I won that $20.00 from EO, I could get that run from dispach.:+ :+ :+
I've been in this business for many years and never had a chance to do a run this long, BUT (there's that work again)I've often dreamt of a run like this. Am I awake?}>
I need for you all to go to the right and rate me. Time is running out and my motto is: "TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!!!"

My wife is really getting on me about not having the gas money to do that run! She just told me the kids need new clothes, that the baby doesn't have any more diapers, and the cupboards are bare. Remember that dinner, well you will have to bring your own food! "BUT" if you all will just give me a rating all will be fine here at the old home- stead. I know you all have a heart, so lets express that love you have, if not for me then do it for the kids. RATE ME!!!

All in fun x( :) :7 ;-) :( :9 :) :* ;) :+ :'( :eek: :p }> :D :-(
