    Lots of places in this big country with lower costs of living than California. One of my buddies works there but lives in Nevada. What keeps you there?

    Went to Tenn last night. Always like that drive if I can get out of Nashville before 0700.

    I'd like to move somewhere remote, Montana or Michigan UP because I hate people, but haven't talked the wife into it yet.

    I ran team for a private carrier. We split 12 cents a mile and got paid 1.99 an hour to unload and stack product in the company warehouses. That was in 1964.

    I think I was somewhere in that neighborhood back in '05. I had a short run though.
