Hooverball

This weekend is West Branch, Iowa's turn at the town summer fest. Home of Iowa's only Presidential Library, established in honor of the infamous Herbert Hoover.

Having been to the library, it is unfortunate that Hoover is primarily remembered as the President that sat on his hands while America suffered its great decline of the 1929 stock market crash preceding the Great Depression. As today with so many intertwining issues making up our economy, Hoover was the wrong guy at the wrong time and the errors of decision or historical outcome likely would have been the same for any other man in his position. However his work in aiding starving post-WWI populations in Europe were truly remarkable deeds in a time of need for those hundreds of thousands without food. Now that's what Iowans are all about!

Join the fun, have a couple of cold ones and enter the National Hooverball Championship. But remember to call a cab when it's time to go. Redline services West Branch, West Liberty, Lone Tree, Hills, Riverside and North Liberty towns near Iowa City. You call, we'll come. Clean, promptly and ready to take you to your next Hooverball experience.

So it's hotter than a bisquet...

And that's no lie. Yesterday the heat index reached 110 degrees and I was swamped with fares.

Today I have Eastern Iowa Airport (CID) trips lining up. I'm running a market breaking fare to the airport. Call me at 319-471-1714 to arrange a airport shuttle. If I don't answer immediately, PLEASE leave a message and I WILL call you back. I will promise that this week no taxi in Iowa City or Coralville beats my price!!

Redline Cab Company is my new car owner. I'm dispatching daytime hours so feel free to use our number here, 319-631-5148 to schedule an airport shuttle at anytime you need it, 24/7.

Stay cool out there! Be safe!

I'm Back in the Saddle Again!!!

Back by popular demand, the #1CabDriverinIowaCity has returned.

After a year away I realized I missed the taxi biz and all of the fantastic people I have carried along the way. So, having been asked to return to Iowa City and help out with one of our best companies, #1CabDriver is now running and daytime dispatching for Redline Cab. Headquartered in Coralville, we service the entire Iowa City metro area. We have drivers available 24 hours a day. We have drivers stationed in all quadrants of the region so your wait time is minimal.

Now the best part... Our meters are the lowest rated fares in the area. Typically I'd give discounts on all fares, but with these rates, the company has done it for me! Ask for our fares to the area airports, Cedar Rapids (CID), Moline/Quad Cities (MLI) or Des Moines International (DSM). I promise you won't find a lower fare because not only will we match our competitors fares but they TRY to match ours.

So if you have car troubles, appointments at doctors, need to go to the grocery store, the mall or anywhere (and I do mean anywhere!) give a call to my number 319-471-1714 or the Redline company phone at 319-631-5146.

It's Been Too Cold...

If the lizards in Florida are chilled stiff, then those of here have reason to complain. It's COLD!

If you have issues with the car, need to go to the Mall to get out of the house or maybe making plans to take a trip, then give us a call. We have drivers available 24/7 to get you where you need to be.

Airport, Mall, Casino or Grocery Store? Our rates are as competitive with any operators in the corridor. Discounts given on all rides is not a false promise. It's a fact. We know times are tough. Why not use a fair company that has your interests in mind?

Holidays

Merry, Happy, Peace on.. whatever your philosophy, Ditto from Me to You!

I'll be out of the cab for a week or so taking some family time, I'll give you a heads up when I'm back on.

However I do have Excellent amigos in the biz. Can we serve you with one of them?

Now that we can finally bury 2009, We wish you God's Best in Health, Family, Wealth and Happiness for 2010.

Happy Birthday Sam!

Today is our buddy Sam Knutson's 40th birthday!!! Some may know him as the basis of the group Shametrain, others as a local fixture of the music and restaurant kitchen scene.

Join the rest of his friends and fans tonight at the Mill when the Shametrain play a free Friday night show. Pretty sure the cover charge dollars will be used for some extensive pre-Christmas, end of the semester, it's my birthday drinking. Go out! Have fun! Take a cab home!

Peace to all.

Holy Frijole!

Anybody notice that it just got cold? Without a doubt.

It's a good time to let you know that our taxi services are available for you 24-7. The need for a cab or shuttle service doesn't necessarily plan itself. Sometimes auto repairs, doctors appointments, shopping or crosstown visits with friends can be unexpected. Please think to Call Us for a warm, discounted ride as winter begins to abort our usual ways.
