About 65 years ago I sat at a truckstop counter listening to two truckers. Their conversation went something like this: Trucker A: "Florida is a b*tch in the summer with no produce moving north." "If I could find a load that just paid for fuel, I could get back up north where there are plenty of loads." Trucker B: "You can make fifty dollars taking a footlocker full of guns to a certain state up north that just made possession without a license a criminal offense." "Lots of drivers doing that since there is very little risk." I'll give you the number to call if you're interested." I got up, paid, and left with a new understanding of "alternate" markets. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
