    Been noodling around with my keyboard this morning, trying to make it more manageable with the Swype input method. I like Swype because it's much faster than the traditional two thumbs method of input by a factor of about four. This is actually a test of a change I've made in the settings to stop my phone from constantly playing Gotcha with me and it seems to be working. So far.

    So to those of you who were expecting something funny or profound, I apologize. This was just to see if my fiddling with the settings would make a difference in the accuracy of the keyboard. It appears to have helped tremendously and my posts will reflect this new flexibility in the near future.

    You may resume your lives now.

    So fiddlin' with the keyboard will make your posts funnier and more profound?

    Do we have lives outside of TTR? Can we have lives outside of TTR? Should we have lives outside of TTR? These are the questions I ask myself over my 1st:coffee2::coffee2::coffee2: cup of coffee in the AM. OK maybe more than 1.

    Was scheduled to take a Greyhound to Kernersville NC to get a truck but they found one here so that saves me a ride and saves The Hot Chick from crashing in somebody's living room over the weekend. The truck has three times the mileage of the other one and it's a 13 speed not an auto, but hey--I'm at their disposal, not the other way around. Gonna head to Wal-Mart and get a few things and clear operations. Already dispatched on a two stop load that leaves Sunday evening.

    Most are straight ten, but this is an old team truck (old by Celadon standards).

    Sooooooo, are you picking up the load? I know no washers is a PITA, but is that worth reduced income?
    Is it a bad pump, plugged nozzles, kinked hoses?????
