Our insurance required us to remove the last bench from our 15-passenger vans ...

Apparently a church service begins in the HR New Brunswick at 0930. Singer sounds like she is trying out to replace Shirley Manson.

Good morning Box. No birds a-singing and not vans in my driveway but I am drinking coffee.

I do have the coffee. And we had to remove all last seats from all - I most commonly drove the larger (and newer) Dodges.

Are they doing the service in the attrium or one of the conference rooms?

I had a full load of 14 in there last night, and after I have coffee and therefore some real brain function I will go thru there and pull receipts for my mother.

The newer Dodges based on the Mercedes Sprinter don't have the roll over issues that the 15 passenger Dodge Ram and the Fords have because they were designed for that system up front instead of the extention stuck onto the back of the van that throws the vehicle dynamics all out of wack. That coupled with less experienced drivers adds to the issue.

Lots of icy roads out there this morning - we passed a few accidents on the way home from church. Definitely a good day to stay inside...

Is there a Box Tripit?

When I left the house Friday morning I saw one kid getting on the school bus wearing a T-Shirt and basketball shorts. It was 23 degrees at the time and windy with a wind chill around 10.
