    This sport market is a very strange phenomenon - so unpredictable with these sudden rates swings.

    OR....the Washington DC protesters Black Smoke Matter or whatever must have had their voice heard back in Spring indeed - which fixed the rates for us.:D

    How many of you thought they were making fools of themselves...?

    just kidding.

    I can't ride the waves...I am too tall I could never keep the balance on the darn board. I gave up that sport quickly. I can only swim...but good.

    Remember: it is not You but the market that tells you what you haul for.

    It is so hard to believe that sooner or later there will be time when I might haul again for less than half of what they pay now...which is not what I want at all.

    Well, made it home by 1500 today. Week is officially over. Ready for a nice weekend.

    This getting home every day and leaving so many unused hours on my 70 hour clock every week has got to stop! I mean, I still had 32 hours left on my 70 when I pulled into the driveway.

    I guess I'll just have to bury my head into my pillow all weekend and cry out, "Why? Oh Why am I leaving so so many unused hours on my 70 clock?" LOL
