    I lied . I watched the 2nd Hobbit movie instead of football. (Huge thank you to the packers, karma is a ##### ain't it cowboys?)
    Payton looked way off his game for me to continue watching.

    Im still upset that I was rear ended.
    Mi was moving east bound I 96 at 35mph with hazards on because it was icy and we have super singles. About mm52, I feel a slight bump and saw the car run into the snow in the median.
    20% of me wanted to pretend it didn't happen and keep trucking, but my inner batman got the best of me. I pulled over and called 911 to report it . Didn't appear he was injured, as it looked like he got out of his car. Cop asked for my side and info and released me before he even asked the car drivers side of what happened. He told me he would ticket the car driver as at fault. And away I went.

    Irritates me that stupid people can ruin days like that.

    Last winter, I stopped counting ditch divers around 100 or so here in the Midwest and out in Wyoming. Some were cars and some were trucks, some were just plain stupid and some were scary, but all were in the ditch as I drove by slowly, 18 wheels on pavement (fewer when I was riding on super singles.)

    And Manning was definitely not the same guy who threw 7 TD's earlier in the season. My guess is he's done after 17 years and major neck surgery. He's rich enough.

    Peyton had a quad injury. I've heard strain, and I've heard torn. Elway has dismantled the coaching staff... let every one of them go.

    Glad Tom pulled the game out of his butt the other day. I don't think it would do the league justice, for the Seahawks not to play the best the AFC has to give them. :biggrin_25514:

    Everyone drive safe and slow in the icy mess that nature has dropped on us.

    Took all day to get loaded at steelCase today . I made it into VA just as it is starting to freeze. So I'm stopped with just enough miles left I can do the rest of the trip in one day. I'd rather have daylight and salt trucks out than an overnight drive as the road freezes. It's not due until Thursday so I'm playing lazy on this one.

    That's the only way to do it, as far as I'm concerned.

    What part of Va. are you going to? Left home this morning (Rocky Mount Va.) with 8 stops. 2 in Il. and 6 in WI. Lucky me.

    Do you have to fold the pads? I hated doing that (and counting them and storing the metal and plywood shelving units they used) when we had a Steelcase load. Most of ours went to the Cleveland area from the Kentwood plant. It was 2 hours off our 14 that we didn't get paid for.

    If it is a on site delivery I have to fold pads and stack plywood ($25) but if it is plant to plant it's a contracted drop and hook.
