    The Trump Card...

    Don't forget that he has thousands of employees that he pays, and all of them are paying taxes. For example, he paid Ivanka millions in consulting fees. If he didn't do that, he'd have to pay taxes on it. So he pays her and then writes it off as a deduction, and then she pays the taxes on it. So...

    The Trump Card...

    CNN's Dana Bash probably characterized the debate the best. You can Google it, probably, but it's one word, begins with an "s" and ends with "show."

    The Trump Card...

    Ah, the old "if true..." tactic. There are IRS agents who dream of nailing a billionaire. It's what they live for. If Trump broke the rules to arrive at those losses, we'd know about it. If Trump took any deductions that the IRS allowed, then those deductions are allowed. If they aren't...

    Where are the young candidates ?

    The other day a video from 1991 surfaced of Biden saying that in 2020 he'll be dead and buried. OK, what are the chances of a video of Biden predicting his own death by 2020, at the exact same time we're all wondering if he'll live to election day in 2020? Lol

    The Trump Card...

    Yeah, the Twittersphere and copious articles have taken the story and read into it what they want to see (which is why the NYT ran it) and have gone full-blown "Trump cheated on his taxes!", despite the Times piece not even making that claim. These people actually think that Trump cheated on his...

    The end is near for windows 7

    Not better is correct. Gimp is the best free photo editor, but people who think it's just as good as Photoshop don't really know what Photoshop can do. Gimp doesn't have CMYK Color mode, or Pantone color, or spot color, which is critical for something commercially printed. It can't handle...

    The Trump Card...

    This latest "bombshell" from the NYT about Trump's taxes, the timing of it all seems, at the very least, miraculous. But that's only if you don't remember almost exactly 4 years ago, October 10, 2016, when the Times had identical reporting on the story. It's just another example of recycled...

    The end is near for windows 7

    Most of the early first generation Windows 7 machines don't have the clock or BUS speeds to run Windows 10. Having said that, the majority of Windows 7 machines will run Windows 10, since both operating systems have similar hardware requirements. Linux has a lot of positives, but also a lot of...

    Don't worry. In 2024 AOC will be eligible to be the most powerful person in the free world.

    The Trump Card...

    When I first heard that it was reported in The Atlantic that in France Trump called dead WWI soldiers "losers" and "suckers" I knew that it was soooo fake news that I laughed out loud. Whether it's from Hollywood or in politics, when something is a little "too on the nose" you know it's a load...

    It's an in-app problem. The developers are working on it. EDIT: Looks like they got it fixed.

    Birthday! Happy Birthday, Turtle

    Thanks. I didn't get any cake, but on the way down here to Laredo, I stopped at :beaver: Buc-ee's and got some fudge. 2 pieces each of praline, peanut butter, and birthday cake flavored.:eek:

    They say 9 out of 10 people suffer from diarrhea. Apparently, the other one enjoys it. OK, I'll be running along now.

    Cargo van size and year

    A used one from last year, so it's still newish and cheaper, and longer and taller is best.

    That's the same stuff as Miralax, a polyethylene glycol electrolyte solution.

    I actually know that. I talked with someone at the office today, who will remain nameless, and he explained some things, some of which I already knew, or had a good guess about. They deal with owner/operators, fleet owners, and drivers of fleet owners, and turndowns are almost exclusively...

    That's the problem with the playing of games. Eventually you get tired of it, go OOS, and then nobody wins. Right now you don't get a turndown if the load is less than 200 miles. LOL like that makes a difference. 150 miles at $1.50 a mile is profitable. Turn that down at your own perilous...

    August Moon at Load 1

    I love getting a turndown on a load that pays $0.58 a mile, that picks up 2.5 hours before I was sent the load offer, and I'm 240 miles away from the pickup, and the reason given for the turndown is "PERSONAL". There's nothing more infuriating than someone who thinks they can read my mind, is...
