TransAm Trucking, Inc. - Olathe, Ks.?

We have a small weekly newspaper here and this week there is an article about the school board meeting on the top half of the front page. The school here has about 700 kids K-12. The school buildings were built in the early 1960's. They have done minor improvements but most of the money goes to football fields and different athletic equipment....we have the very finest. Over the summer they spent $409,000 on "projects". They maintain a balance of about 3.5 million dollars in the local bank. The classroom doors are original and if I remember correctly they are wood and obviously have no locks. They are proposing a new school tax levy. I know, I know you are wondering when I am going to get to the point ....so I will just copy it for you ....other than the names of the principal and Athletic Director ....

The crowd was treated to a demonstration of a technique on preventing intruders from entering a classroom by the Athletic Director and the High School Principal. While the principal laid on the floor, anchoring a rope-the other end looped around a doorknob-the athletic director pulled from the other side of the door unsuccessfully attempting entry.
"I wasn't even holding it very hard, honestly," the principal said as he walked away triumphantly.

I am not joking ....this was in our local paper. Every teacher will be issued a length of rope to loop around the doorknob, of a wooden door, then lay on the floor and anchor it shut....that is their defense against an armed intruder. I live in an area full of morons ....I may have to move New security doors , security locks? ....rope is soooo much cheaper

 

Yep, Husband has the same thing with his new truck! So it could be either one of them, Pete..... and please...pick them up, dust them off, and set them back behind the steering wheel, would ya?

 

This is a question for the L/O? What kind of insurance does trans am make you buy? I saw on here that insurance cost 225 dollars. Is that per week?

Hello every one .Hope All of you are doing fine. Im getting a swap tonite then Im going to bordercity meats in hamtramck, michigan. Has anyone been there? If so any tips i need to know, thanks.

 

the gate opens at midnite
pretty much a straight shot up I94 to I75N for a mile then the exit
don't get there before midnite not a nice part of town
but I get there give my arrived call then take a 10 give my empty call
and a new day begins

hamtrack is pretty much Detroit

 

You have to be kidding! that's hard to believe.... I did teach out in the middle of western Nebraska...art K-12...many years ago. Corn
fields for as long as you could see.

 

Hannaford Bros in South Portland Maine
don't follow GPS last 1.5 miles
takes you there thru residential streets
turn right onto Rumery St sign says PORTLAND INDUSTRIAL PARK
follow around to the right directly in front of you is Hannaford
there is a washout on the way back out on left before you get to route 1

 

Not kidding, oliver2! I couldn't believe it. I guess they spent all of their budget on other things .....like a new bus for the football team. What burns me up is there are grants available through the Department of Homeland Security .....but I think it would require some modicum of intelligence to realize that and apply for the grants. I am thinking of sending a copy of the newspaper to a friend of mine that is on the evening news.

 

Husband is in Texas today, while he was talking with me this afternoon he saw 3 drivers get pulled over for seatbelt violations. Unmarked cars and binoculars were being used to nail drivers that unbuckled their seatbelts before they pulled into the truck stop or were buckling up as they left the truck stop.
