Oh....I just read an article about trucking on www.austin360.com
It's about the NAFTA thing you mentioned the other day. I actually read the article , but stopped when I read why everything would be ok..since inspection regulations have changed and Mexican trucks are better than before....SHHHHAAAAAA! I suggest you take a peek at the article. I would have posted it in here, but you know what a goofball I am about that stuff.
You may have to register to read the entire article...maybe not.
Let me know...I may be able to get the URL or squirrel or whatever you call it and post that in here.

Depends on who wrote the piece ..... Just the facts that they want you to know .... Did it say anything about them not havening a drug testing system set up yet .... A computer tracking system so the drivers could be kept up with ..... Back ground checks so they can haul Hazardous Materials ....
None of these requirements .... according to the testimony I listened to on capital hill have been met ... Yet they still want to let them in the States ... Why is it only Americans have to follow our law on American soil ???? Every one else gets rewarded for breaking it ....
I am getting ready to take the Little One to a Princess dress -up party party. She tried on 2 princess gowns to see which one looked better. She is going with the Sleeping Beauty ensemble with her Belle glass slippers. She is undecided about which crown to wear. I have to find a wand.....hope I have not given them all away. I have been Bibidi Bobidi Booed with a wand too many times and I may have lost patience.
I wish I had gone to a Princess dress up party when I as a little girl.......

I never got up to anything this weekend, took my daughter to dance class yesterday, went and bought a part for the computer whilst she was there, went to a cafe for dinner after I picked her up, and that was yesterday in a nutshell. Today, I took the trouble and strife shopping, visited my parents and that was it.
Well ... Wal Mart Doesn't know it yet ... but they are short one truck ...... Some one really needs to rethink that freight rate before they call me again ......
Sat for three hours today while they decided who's job it was to pull the already loaded trailer out of the door so I could deliver it ..... their policy says I can't touch it if it's touching a dock .... So I had to wait on them to get around to it .... Hard to make miles that way ...
Sorry, I've been away from here and TOP. I was promoted as Mod to another forum I am on. So I've been spending my time over there. Trying to get people to join.
