    Yes.

    BTW, I have seen The Princess Bride and enjoyed it very much.

    And I saw Rocky Horror in the theater, back when you could bring all your stuff with you in a PAPER bag, and they only gave you grief if you had bottles. Cans were okay, "just leave 'em in the trash can, not on the floor.";)

    Oh, and if you're wondering, you need to bring a squirt gun full of water, a newspaper, dry rice, a piece of toast ans a roll of toilet paper.

    You really should go AT LEAST once.

    Well.

    I might have DH’ed 150 miles in the snow/sleet.
    But I went home, and got another load that’ll load today, back to some little place called Pitts.. Burg?
    I bet it’s the real Pitts..
    Drop that one, reload Sat and comes back to DumAs, AR.
    Guess I gotta go spend fuel money.:(

    It gets better as you get on more agent/broker dispatch sheets. Conversations become better when they are calling you. My bet is you get there rather quickly.

    It was one thing I appreciated about the LS Load alert system..... It did not call me if the load did not meet base line criteria.

    One of the differences between how Dave runs and I ran is He works within a network of Agents he has a relationship with. I worked off the load board with a couple of agents I could call and say "what you got coming up, I'll be good to go on (date)" and others (typically answered "da") that I would tell go find me something.....
