    Yep, Friday the 13th, I'll finally be going solo. I had intended to start a thread over the summer when I started school, but didn't get a chance.
    I would like to thank all the members who contribute their experiences here: Injun, Mystic, Scottied, Blsqueak, and all the others. I have learned alot from all of you over the last year.
    I went to Southwest Truck Driver Training in Phoenix, and I just finished my time out with a mentor, so if I can help out anyone that has questions, just ask. I'll be out of Phoenix running 48, so hope to see you all out there.

    Well, depending on whether 13 is your unlucky number, or your lucky one like me, will determine how your solo career pans out.

    She doesn't. I would hate for her to wind up teaming with the likes of you.:biggrin_25522:

    Besides that. She's graduating next week as a fully qualified mechanic with every ASE cert you can dream up. She'll make more money than me.

    .....'course, that isn't too difficult. I do run for Swift. :biggrin_25523:

    We both take large. We like 'em baggy with the arms rolled up. Red and white would not be a good choice. Heh....
