    1st off Every single Nebraskan I know drinks Bush Light ( I just threw up alittle in my mouth).. so it must be the Badger blood giving you the craving for Budweiser.. Next if your dropping off in my backyard at Southwest then you need to adjust the air ride on your trailer ..or are you still on spring ride? Cause when I buy beer at Casey's the cans are always dented and the beer is all foamy.. lol

    You said it better than me. You'd be surprised though, the mega'a don't haul as cheap as some people think. The one shipper I know of they were pulling for more than some o/o were moving it for.

    It would take pretty much a week to bring this country to a halt. And a lot of JIT freight is moved by o/o
