Yeah man, all good fun. :lol:

BTW Goldenseal is this herb people take to to pass a drug screen even though they've been smokin' the marihoochioni. So, no goldenseal? I didn't think I could mistake a quote like that one. 8)

Here's a homework assignment for all you guys that think taking something cheap is preferable to to deadheading. I finish tomorrow in Portland, OR at 1600. When I get back to Huntington Beach I can get another one of these loads either Friday or Tuesday. Dry freight paying $3700. Care to find me a load out of Portland?

Cam, sorry I didn't answer your question. This deal kind of fell into my lap and I've been scurrying the past day or two.

Hmmm No one out there seems afraid of my henchman, I was told he has an all seeing third eye in the middle of his head, not to menion an eye in the back to keep any one from sneaking up on him!

Reminded me of a computer game saying I hear all the time(when playing the game), when the week computer player yells out, "OH I bet now your worried, my imperial forces will soon be upon you....his name was Ratty, (so obvious his imperail forces dont mount to much)

But a few things jump out at me in hind sight.

1. Steves d/h rule woulda netted me some more $, I emptied in Odessa and Marina, I fiqured both times my best bet for freight woulda been Dallas and Atlanta. I could have grapped something up at a 1.00 a mile probably, and the whole trips out would have netted me 600 more probably..... 6,300 beats 5,700

2. The load home was HIGH dollar, I didnt recognize it at first, could have easily probably gotten an extra 150.00 to cover d/h

3. Dang missed a good opportunity in Dallas to add some more freight on......the dallas to Mariana load were all pallets, the schneider load, versus the Stevens floor load, both were decent rates for dry van.
I could have probably gotten 500 more for a partial from Dallas to s/w louisiana if i thought faster.

That's kinda what I meant. I was at the TA in Dallas off of I-20, at about 2 in the morning, and swore I saw you inside the store.

That was me disguised as Pepe trying to smuggle New Hampshire residents over the border into Mexico.
