    State-of-the-Art Truck Stop

    We stopped there the other day...the building is beautiful. My only complaint is that all the parking is away from the building. In nice weather it's a great walk...in pouring rain or snow not so much. That being said, we all know that truckers will "use" the parking lot instead of walking 3 ft...

    Trucking Pets

    Bugsy has been in the truck since he was 7 weeks old, he's 5 now. When we're at a shipper/consignee we tell him to go to the back and he will stay there until we tell him it's ok to come back up front. We were amazed the first time we had to get out of the truck after we had told him to go to...

    Abortion-should she have gotten the dealth penalty

    Hmmmm...while I do not agree with abortion...it is not my place to decide the right or wrong of the issue. That is between the woman and her maker. That being said...it is absolutely NOT the Federal Governments place to do so either. Just where in the Constitution does the abortion issue...

    CLint Eastwood to speak at the Republican Convention

    I'd really like to know is why Clint Eastwood's opinion matters in the first place? I love the "actor" but his personal opinion is just that personal opinion!

    North Carolina voters reject same-sex marriage.

    Hmmm...how about taking the tax advantages away from "married" couples? Or better yet get the government out of the issue completely? No marriage license etc. Marriage was just a "religious ceremony" before the government got involved. I believe that we were created male and female, with...

    Finally, Ron Paul says he is done

    It will take more than a "Presidential Election" to change things, but Ron Paul's unfailing support of the original intent of the founders and the Constitution would have been a step in the right direction. Mitt Romney is just more of the same.
