    It's in Evansville. He has to get there, pick it up, get back to Duncannon, PA and head out with his load to Amarillo, TX

    Let me give some more great advice.



    1. the key to a good BS story is that its got to be believable

    2. never tell the same lie twice

    3. when all else fails see rule #1



    Telling people that you can turn and burn coast to coast in 36 hrs is not believable.
    See rule #1.

Sorry bud but remember at Werner We Care.....Ha HA HA ....I started there too and found that to be the most ludacris statement I ever heard....it ranks right up there with Celadons "straight talk" policy:biggrin_25523:
