I will start this topic by introducing myself. My name is Jeff and I am the President of ClassADrivers.com and OwnerOperatorJob.com. We own a few other trucking related web sites as well. Our owner is my wife Lucinda.

I am 38 years old, married, two children, one grandchild, 1 cat, 1 dog (Black Lab), and 5 goldfish.

I am an avid golfer (even though I suck at it). I like fishing, Pro Football, College Basketball (Go UK), and will occasionally bowl a game or two.

The best beer is free beer, my favorite movies are action and comedies, and my favorite author is Deen Koontz.

Our business has been online since 9-2000 and we are based in Madisonville, Kentucky.

Enough about me, let's hear from the rest of you :D

A keyboard, and the desire to go places can take you anywhere......this is how I stumbled upon CAD.
My name is Vivian, and if we measure life by experience rather than age, then let's just assume that I have more experience than say... someone in their twenties,.. yet not quite enough to say that just to be alive is a grand thing.
After a mid-life crisis in which I suddendly realized that the relentless task of making dreams come true for the tourist in Central Florida was anything but exciting, I decided to give up a managerial career in the hospitality industry and concentrate instead on my own life and where I wanted it to go.
I loved to travel, but the money factor as always was a terrific concern...so after careful consideration, I picked up the phone, called a Truck Driving Institute and the rest is history...life for me started at the age of 47 and I've never looked back. I can only say that courageous risks are life giving, they help you grow and make you braver than you ever imagined yourself to be.
So it was, that I realized that taking chances could open vistas of opportunities that otherwise would go undiscovered...I teamed up with the man I now have been married to for 7 years, honeymooned on the open road, commited myself to safety, and took my new passage in life with the upmost respect.
We've been off the road now for three years, running a construction business in the Clermont area and have both concluded that the road is calling us back....that familiar melody of rubber meeting pavement just puts rythm in your blood....in the meantime and until this is a reality, I hope to get to know some of you better...BE SAFE ! :aktion069.gif:

rockefella, and whitelite,

Welcome to the forums. We appreciate your input.

Rockefella, I noticed that you mentioned that you are from Dixon, KY. I was born and raised in Owensboro, and we are currently based in Madisonville. Good to see a neighbor on our forums.
