    I'm hoping the Bears can beat the Seahawks, they have improved a lot since they lost to them earlier in the season. But this is the city that gave us the Cubs, so you never know. :biggrin_2559: It would be nice if the Pack could beat Atlanta, then the NFC championship game would be in Chicago if they win.......gonna be interesting.

    Like the old saying goes..."It's nothing personal, it's just business."

    The broker wouldn't think twice about doing the same thing, dairyman. Good work.

    It was nice to meet you to WH and enjoyed visiting with you hope you have been getting some work. With all the snow I stayed running in Texas and Oklahoma and missed it but ended up unloading in the mud in Port Aurthur, TX and had to have a bob cat push me around. I didn't like digging all the mud out and it looked like I had super singles with all the mud between my tires when I got out of their.

    What kind of doubles Doonan? I remember them making about the best set around for years I still see some around Salina. There use to be a guy here that had a old 77 Pete with a 5x4 tranny and no power steering pull a set of Doonans around locally, you talk about old school and tuff.

    I'm back to hauling to ethanol plant since they raised rates. I'll haul somewhere else if possible or just park truck if rates are too cheap. I find it hard not to haul every load but some rates aren't worth it.

    Big John you have a nice outfit hate to think about it getting that muddy. My truck has some salt on it but not dirty enough yet for a $90 truck wash.
