ORD to MSP on Monday? If possible, I need to find up to 12 pallets / 9,000lbs. heading directly back to Minneapolis on Monday morning for same-day delivery (pick and drop Monday). On Monday afternoon/evening, I will be picking up another load of hand-load/unload, custom-built, blanket-wrapped, laminated store fixtures (cabinets, countertops, displays, etc.) from John at Retailer Services Corp.: RSCOR going to Oklahoma City and Dallas, TX for delivery on Wednesday. I will then have room for 26’ (310”L x 97”W x 98”H), up to 9,000lbs. heading back to Minneapolis to pick up another load - possibly heading for El Paso, TX (no confirmation, yet). May I help you? From one of my favorite pastors and Marines, Chuck Swindoll: The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude to me is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than what other people think, or say or do. It is more important than appearance, giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company, a church or a home. The remarkable thing is we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past. We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing that we can do is to play on the one string we have and that is our attitude. Im convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it. And so it is with you. ~Charles Swindall~ --------------------------------------------------------- Please enjoy: From MGySgt. (e9) Jonathan White, USMC (active): June, 1985 - After 59 years, the iconic Route 66 enters the realm of history when the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials decertifies the road and votes to remove all its highway signs. Measuring some 2,200 miles in its heyday, Route 66 stretched from Chicago, Illinois to Santa Monica, California, passing through eight states. According to a New York Times article about its decertification, most of Route 66 followed a path through the wilderness forged in 1857 by U.S. Navy Lieutenant Edward Beale at the head of a caravan of camels. Over the years, wagon trains and cattlemen eventually made way for trucks and passenger automobiles. The idea of building a highway along this route surfaced in Oklahoma in the mid-1920s as a way to link the state to cities like Chicago and Los Angeles. Highway Commissioner Cyrus S. Avery touted it as a way of diverting traffic from Kansas City, Missouri and Denver. In 1926, the highway earned its official designation as Route 66. The diagonal course of Route 66 linked hundreds of mostly rural communities to the cities along its route, allowing farmers to more easily transport grain and other types of produce for distribution. The highway was also a lifeline for the long-distance trucking industry, which by 1930 was competing with the railroad for dominance in the shipping market. Route 66 was the scene of a mass westward migration during the 1930s, when more than 200,000 people traveled from the poverty-stricken Dust Bowl to California. John Steinbeck immortalized the highway, which he called the Mother Road, in his classic 1939 novel The Grapes of Wrath. Beginning in the 1950s, the building of a massive system of interstate highways made older roads increasingly obsolete, and by 1970, modern four-lane highways had bypassed nearly all sections of Route 66. In October 1984, Interstate-40 bypassed the last original stretch of Route 66 at Williams, Arizona, and the following year the road was decertified. According to the National Historic Route 66 Federation, drivers can still use 85 percent of the road, and Route 66 has become a destination for tourists from all over the world. Often called the Main Street of America, Route 66 became a pop culture mainstay over the years, inspiring its own song (written in 1947 by Bobby Troup, Route 66 was later recorded by artists as varied as Nat King Cole, Chuck Berry and the Rolling Stones) as well as a 1960s television series.

The desert holds a special place in Gods Word. The Scriptures portray the desert as a place of inspiration and exaltation - a place where people met God in a powerful new way. King David wrote the 63rd Psalm while in exile in the Desert of Judah. He was hiding from his son Absalom, who wanted to replace him as king of Israel. For Joseph, a deep pit in the desert was the first stop on a 13-year journey through desolation and despair. That 13-year desert experience served to break Josephs self-will and self-confidence. It taught him that he could not control anything and that he needed to rely on God to manage the events in his life. Josephs desert trial prepared him by scorching the youthful pride and arrogance out of his young life so that when he was 30 years old he could rule Egypt at Pharaohs side in a spirit of humility and servant-hood. Before becoming king of Israel, David was a shepherd. Part of his training for leadership involved hand-to-claw combat with the beasts of the wilderness, including the lion and the bear. Elijah learned the principles of spiritual leadership while in the wilderness of Gilead. And Jesus was tempted and tested for 40 days in the desert before He began to preach. Perhaps God has given you a dream, but now it seems that your dream has withered and died under the scorching desert sun. It seems that God has gone away and is not listening to your prayers. But I want you to know that that your dream still lives. God is with you, even if you cant see Him, hear Him or sense His presence. He is preparing you in the desert. --------------------------------------------------------- You cannot change your life until you change something that you do every day. ~John C.
