The heatwave is still lingering, this must be one of those long, hot summers everybody talks about. Reminds us of a song by Martha and the Vandellas. Which raises the question, what is a Vandella?
It’s been so hot, so long that all we’ve been able to do is cruise the Internet, windows up, A/C on and Martha Reeves playing in the background.
Here’s the first thing we cruised by, which only proves you really can find anything on the Internet.
And, here are some recent American Trucking Association headlines we ran across:
ATA Truck Tonnage Jumped 1.2% in June
ATA Files Opening Briefin Challenge of Unwarranted HOS Changes
New Report Highlights Data on Fleet Recruitment & Retention
We also ran across this on YouTube, a report from CNN about the truck driver shortage.
Seems like there’s been talk of a driver shortage for at least twenty-five years, kind of makes you wonder if it is really going to happen, doesn’t it?

The summer keeps getting hotter and so does the political scene, you would never guess we were in the middle of a drought with all the mudslinging going on!
Anyway, here are the results of the TruckDriver.com Veep Survey. Your guess really was as good as ours!
Who will be Mitt Romney’s running mate in the upcoming election?
Condoleezza Rice - 29%
Marco Rubio - 34%
Chris Christie - 3%
Susana Martinez - 5%
Bob McDonnell - 2%
Tim Pawlenty - 8%
Someone else - 19%
. Until next time, keep on truckin’ and please drive safely.
