Hah!  I haven't heard about the baby schneider eggs in forever!  That brings back memories!  I can't even remember all the nicknames for those orange trucks.  Even our freaking duct tape was orange.  But I did really like working for them- my husband and I ran expedited and they treated us very well for it. I think that taking out the "I-" or "hwy" is a regional thing- probably has to do with familiarity with the roads and also that west coast need to talk as quickly as possible.  We abbreviate a lot.  Plus I've heard it's mostly on the west coast that people use time to refer to distance, like "The store is 10 minutes away" instead of "The store is 5 miles away".
