    Was in mid 90s that day I swung by the house 2 weeks ago. Probably cracked 100 by now.

    About 10 years ago I painted the house. Started November 1st. Went over 100 every day that week, and my legs were absolutely roasted ( painfully ).

    Well, now there's a big kitty in my bed.

    ...and while you’re at it empty the cat pan.

    Dogs have owners, cats have staff.

    Box saw a lot of usage last night, it got cleaned at the Petro.
    This is their second time out so they're a lot more at home.
    As evident by the rumble and sounds of things being knocked to the floor early this morning as they are fooling around.

    Just started reading this thread and have a question I didnt see answered early on about good/bad brokers.

    I am just starting the process of joining Landstar. I have made it through their 2-4 week background check process and am in the buying the truck stage so will be heading to Rockford hopefully next week - or the week after.

    Is there a place that lists the good and the bad? Just starting out, that would be helpful. I am out of the Minneaplis area, and I understand the broker here in South St Paul is one of the good ones, but just wondering once I get out in the real world.

    Thanks in advance.

    You'll have to weed through them same as everyone else.
    What might work for me, might not work for you.
    There's some clues in the thread.

    When you're booking a load, if you think it's a bad deal, it probably is.

    Just because they say they want the fresh-caught rainbow trout for dinner doesn't mean it is a good idea...
