    if he can handle being in the back of a bull wagon I'm sure he can handle you.. :bootyshake:

    I wanna see this kid do well...

    His attitude is right and he actually seems to give a sheet about the job he is doing unlike a lot of the other n00b's I see in my travels... :smt023

    We used to live in that area. The docks in the West Loop are scary. Luckily your not going there. It's like backing into a garage from the street and pedestrians don't care the big truck is backing.

    You going to City Foods ?

    Honk when you drove by. We're right by I-90 & Barrington Road.
