    Our Time is Now

    Just don't have a second moving violation (or accident or other incident of any kind) within 3 years and you should be fine. FedEx may limit it to zero, but most will give you one. Two and you're screwed until 3 years pass.

    Yes, I do know that. Which is why I didn't say we've learned ONLY two things in the last 6 months. But anyone who hasn't learned those two particular things is operating on incomplete information and fairie tales. One prominent health expert says the virus is weakening and will probably just...

    Yeah, well, we've learned two things in the last six months: 1. You have to look at the data and listen to the experts. 2. The data is wildly unreliable and the experts routinely lie. This video from The Hill illustrates that, brutally. Dems, media CAUGHT covering up coronavirus outbreak...

    “If you were really fearing for your life you would not have even come into that intersection that was full of people and protesters,” Duckworth said. My response would be, if you don't want to get run over by a car, don't stand in the street. I have the same advice regarding railroad tracks.

    I can't imagine why he was so cooperative and amiable, then went nuts as soon as the police told him they were placing him under arrest. It makes no sense. It can't be because he was out on parole and a DUI arrest would have wiped that out, because according to CNN, who is afterall a "facts...

    Comments from people who went to the rally, comments from people who were scattered from the plaza who wanted to go but cited the National Guard and the possibility of rioting as their reason for not returning to attend the rally, and the comments from people who really wanted to go but cited...

    There were a lot of factors involved. I think the virus played the biggest role. But the near-certainty of rioting was a factor. The mayor clearing the plaza and those camping out in line didn't help. The National Guard being deployed to Tulsa didn't help. The mayor reversed his call on the...

    The media has no interest in laying any of those irrational fears to rest. You know that, right? It's not a part of their business model. The recent reporting shows that beyond all doubt. Gathering in large numbers (and even in small numbers) to protest the lockdown orders? Very bad. Will cause...

    Lost looking for Box Truck Answers

    Knowing where your freight is going to come from is maybe a little higher up on the To-Do List than getting a truck to haul unknown freight, isn't it? You live in an area where almost no expedite freight comes out of or goes into. Some, sure, but not nearly enough to think you can do this out...

    Too funny. When I was in the hospital and they told me what the CAT scan showed, I asked, "Are you sure it's the gallbladder, and not Sigourney Weaver's Alien?"

    With most of those surgeries, it's 2 (or 4) small incisions (Laparoscopic surgery, also called minimally invasive surgery (MIS), bandaid surgery, or keyhole surgery), snip snip, they sew you up usually you go home the same day, and you're back to work in a week. WIth a large infection, they...

    I don't say poppycock, because I believe the fleet owner is paying that. I also believe the fleet owner to be a cheap :censoredsign: I wouldn't want to drive for. Regardless of it being a straight, a tractor or a Sprinter, fuel ends up being about 20% of gross revenue, and the other 80% gets split...

    Thanks. I do apologize for even bring it up in public, especially in a BLM/KKK thread where it doesn't belong. It's a gallbladder issue. Normally, removing it is the easiest surgery there is. I mean, it's what they let brand new surgeons do. :JC-hysterical: But this one comes with a "massively...

    Thank you very much, Ragman. It get a little better each day, but it's still a miserable PITA. Another CAT scan next week to assess, and hopefully in 2-3 weeks surgery. after that, barring any complications, another week and I'll be back out baking in an iron box on a black asphalt parking lot...

    Well, gee, let's beat the crap out of this semantic horse. When the police themselves state they are experiencing a higher than usual number of call outs, it's a number large enough to be remarkable, notable. The word "large" as an adjective is generally (if not always) used relative to a norm...

    Yeah, sure, I suppose. Considering the phrase and the practice originated with black Twitter users and was quickly co-opted by white progressive liberal SJW Twitter users. So, yeah, it's a boogeyman du jour that doesn't really exist, except it does really exist.

    There isn't evidence of systemic racism anywhere, actually (other than in the minds of racists). If you ask for examples of systemic racism, people give you examples of things that happened in the past, but they can't point to any current example of systemic racism. WHen called on that, they...
