It's interesting that as truck drivers, you guys don't have more awareness, and maybe even consideration for the intrinsic challenges of an 18-wheeler driver trying to go up hills. It's a lot easier for a van to move over a lane to allow the TT to gain speed, than for the TT to keep having to...

Gee, I think I'd wanna get rid of those curtains too. The Bible says s'ok to make curtains from goats' hair, but nothing about using soylent green wafers. No *wonder* they're not much to your liking!

It seems many carriers use a service to ensure they keep up to date with all the compliance demands of the FMCSA. Such a service will also preview your stuff before your appointment, for a fee of course, including logs. I have heard warnings from carriers that when FMCSA says, 'we're here to...

Hmm.. maybe some tats and a 'man-purse' too?

Someone recommended to me, 'Ad Muncher'.. It lets you choose a bunch of settings for which things you see, and apparently it blocks stuff up front, so doesn't make it stall and search, etc. (I don't know the correct lingo).

Yes, that's what I meant, what Cheri said. From what I understand, Panther only charges 15% to look after the paperwork and allow you to run a load under their authority. Sounds like a great deal to me, better than sitting for days. And besides, doesn't sound like Panther people are sitting...

Why not stay where you are.. ain't no greener grass.. just dry old brown crusty grass everywhere.. at least with Panther you can do something to help yourself if you wanna.

<snicker> I wonder how many lady truckers would be interested in buying Mr. Guido's bod?

It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at that man. Laurie got offended that I used the word 'puke.' But to me, that's what her dinner tasted like. I think someone should have had the decency to tell me the luncheon was free. To make someone run out with potato salad...

I think if people listened really hard, they might've heard you can pay your biz bills at the same time you do this, as long as you don't have a truck payment, and you're willing to eat canned something or others.. and well, maybe if you get super duper lucky, you might find a fiver stuck to the...

Sorry to hear of your bad luck and misfortune. I take it you did not have gap insurance to cover the difference between what the insurance paid out and the amount still owing on the truck, and that is why you had to file for bankruptcy? I hope you are pursuing this situation through the...

Does that mean the nickel deposit will be refunded upon return of the plastic bottle? And will the nickel tax on throw-away plastic bags be avoidable for those that bring their own bags? If so, seems fair.

Wow it's hard to believe all the destruction, wastelands, business failures, housing devaluation, etc. that your new president has caused in his 3 months in office! Wonder what another few days will bring?

Unfortunately I needed to begin a new topic since I am not able to post in the FECC forum. Altho info in there might be relevant to FECC people, sometimes outsiders also appreciate the opportunity to make enquiries about how things work over there. I was reading the thread in there regarding a...

Hmm, wonder if he would be alive if the BIL didn't have a gun in the house.

(Shhhhhh, but maybe it's those ears!!!!) hehehehe

Many years ago I moved into a community of new homes where they had a 'super mailbox' instead of door-to-door delivery. I got tons of junk mail every day, so I would just slip it into the mail slot for the mailman since I didn't want any of it. I kept on doing this, and unbeknownst to me, I...

Or maybe some people are just simply mentally ill.

Just out of curiosity, how would you say the government should pay for all these things, like protecting the country, and building and maintaining roads, and the infrastructure that goes beneath them and the environmental studies and impact studies and the workers who do all this work? And who...
