    Neil Young was right

    Whatever your political opinions, you gotta hand it to TallCall for having the class to apologize, not once, but twice. Good show! There isn't any state, or ethnic group, or gender, or ANY category of people whatsoever that's purely good, or bad, or any adjective - it just seems that way to some...

    laptops

    Thanks, Unorthodox Neon - it's not much of a problem, to keep it plugged in, & I just prop it up a little at the front, to allow airflow to the fans on the bottom. A cooling thingamajig is on my list, lol, I'm just adlibbing for now.

    What ever happened to common courtesy????

    RE: RE%3A What ever happened to common courtesy%3F With all due respect, I'd suggest that anyone who can't sleep near the sound of trucks running, shouldn't park in a truck stop - just as I don't try to sleep at the places that announce "shower number eleven thousand, eight hundred, & seventy...

    How would you handle this?

    Any guy who is dumb enough to think that women who enter a room clearly marked "women" are in the mood to be picked up, deserves to be beat on with purses, umbrellas, books, etc - and he should just consider himself lucky that we no longer use those long, sharp hatpins, lol :7

    Removing signs

    JJ: yes, they will, but the'll pay us $100 to do it - even if it takes 4 hours, that's not bad money! Especially considering how easy it is to blow 4 hours by doing a search for the info, & getting sidetracked reading all kinds of interesting stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with...

    laptops

    What Unorthodox Neon said: the Compaq Presario is pretty good, but spring for the upgraded battery! I just keep mine plugged into the small inverter - it's not a major power sucker, luckily.;)

    Removing signs

    Can anyone offer advice on how to remove the ConWay signage from my van? One driver said to use vinegar to soak it, like for wallpaper - does that really work? Would a wallpaper remover that uses steam be good? I had no trouble removing the phone number, but those were small pieces! I don't...

    Trouble with Showering on the Road

    I think in your shower shoes, seeing light from a room above, I'd have demanded to see the view from the room above, and I'd have continued demanding, if they refused, until someone called the police - they don't take peeping-toms lightly. Because they know that many rapists begin as...

    How would you handle this?

    I'd have been stunned into silence too! Only later would I have wanted to ask her: "If I were trying to be a man, what would I be doing in the Ladies' Room?" :P

    Seeking some input............

    Gregmclain: You can cross ConWay off your list of potentials, lol - that's undoubtedly what everyone was occupied with over the weekend. Now that we're getting back to normal, I have to say that I can't quite figure out what your question is, exactly. Besides driving something other than a van...

    Panther Bought Conway Now??

    Mike B: Right back atcha! I never saw the "wrath", but I saw a lot of the respect, and every driver I've spoken to is aware that the good folks we talked to every day, were just as surprised as we were. It's good to hear that you will have a place to land.

    Evolution of an Expediting Company

    And corporate America is aided by the laws, written by the politicians, who win elections by virtue of the money they spend from their campaign funds, which are mostly donated by corporate America. We have become The United States of Corpolitics! PS I am aware that in many countries, I would...

    something you should never do....

    I'd say the only thing to make of this is that you ought to take a much harder look at your 'buddies', BEFORE you do them favors!

    What ever happened to common courtesy????

    I am one who enjoys the sound of the trucks idling, it's the truck that comes to empty the dumpster at 5 am that p&$#%@s me off! If you sleep better in quiet, get some kind of white noise generator, or earplugs, or a tape/cd player with soothing sounds, because trucks idling at a truck stop...

    Getting exercise while in the truck

    While driving, you can do isometric exercises, contracting & releasing muscles from your toes to your shoulders, which can kill a lot of time, and on your bed, you can use a bungee cord as a resistance band: hook one end to something stationary, & pull against it, slowly. To use it for leg...

    Panther Bought Conway Now??

    I thank Dynamite for pointing out a true thing: the ConWay people were always there for me, and always with a great attitude. I would just like to add Marissa to the list of those I will miss being able to call in the middle of the night. Moot: We might enjoy seeing the "Cleaver pants"...
