When I order stuff from McMaster Carr, I get it next day from Chicago to Springfield , MO..
Fed ex or UPS.. Both ground.. Order before 5:00PM, delivers at 3:30 or so.
For all the boo boo's ya hear about, they do some pretty impressive stuff sometimes.

I've got a discount tool supplier that I receive orders from in less than 24 hrs. Whether it be hand tools or 80 lb. hydraulic jacks. Of course, I've ordered a couple dollars worth from them so far this year. That may be an incentive for them.

There are certain regions and routes that just work real well. The volume of freight and packages allows for a boat load of trips each day from spr to StLouis at all hours of the day, and same for StLouis to Chicago..
We ship about 200 skids of product all over the 4 states area every week, and fed ex freight covers that area like a blanket, all one day points. But everything going to ok city or Texas gets on a Dugan truck. That's their strong suit.

'Ramp Agent'. Our son Michael is one for Delta at KCI. Baggage handler really.

Quite often mother gets a call from Michael's phone but all we hear is him bumping around in a plane's belly. 'Butt dialed' he has.

Morning gents. Packing up the Escape for another week in TN this week. Blah! Have a good one.

Tammi has to plan container placement within the 757 according to weight, documents dangerous goods and the container that they go in (one has a remote triggered Halon hose coupled to it), calculates fuel on board and orders it if needed, marshalls the aircraft away from the terminal, de-ices the aircraft when required, documents and verifies the credentials of "jumpseaters", etc, etc. if the aircraft is one minute late in departing it takes volumes of paperwork to explain the cause.

Hey Steve, just believe that you'll come across several chainsaw finds along the way. Maybe that'll make it better.

Mike.........that looks like some serious Fun!

That's just not fair, you guys need to let me know next time!

We could have use your portable welder. We rented 2 miller bobcat 225's and I'm glad we had 2, it went much faster.

Mine just eats data...

I locked mine in 3g and that helps me a lot. Turn off auto update, turn off auto play video in Facebook also.

MS880 necropsy:
Broken front AV mount allowed some turd head to yank on a pinch. Thereby, it pulled off the impulse line at the crankcase. There was enuff vapor pressure (summer) to push fuel to the carb allowing it to run on. The resultant overspeed wiped out the rod big end bearing and small bits if the roller cage damaged the piston/rings.
