    Insurance Companies

    Has anyone heard a single peep out of the major insurance companies about health care reform? I've had no luck finding anything and none of the talk radio programs I listen to have spoken about it. Seems strange that if healthcare reform will ultimately put them out of business, that they...

    Dodd diagnosed with Prostate Cancer

    I saw this on the Fox news website, but just to make sure that I wasn't accused of taking my news from "that" network, I am posting a link from MSNBC ;) Dodd diagnosed with prostate cancer I don't wish anyone to be ill, but it's really too bad that he won't have to use the system he wants to...

    Virtual Terminals

    Have the virtual terminals and all the changes that were supposed to happen started yet? I realize the boards have changed, but since they still haven't updated the maps on the drivers web, we are still doing what we've always done. I have no clue where one board ends and another begins. It's...

    Acorn and the Census

    I heard about some of the questions that will be asked on this census and in my opinion, it's none of the governments business! Evidently, Michelle Bachmann doesn't think so either :D EXCLUSIVE: Minn. lawmaker vows not to complete Census - Washington Times

    Glenn Beck

    Glenn Beck has become my favorite radio/tv personality. I haven't found a single thing that I don't agree with him about. He slams the left and the right, and he just makes sense!

    Too Funny!

    I was riding to work yesterday when I observed a female driver, who cut right in front of a pickup truck, causing the driver to drive onto the shoulder to avoid hitting her. This evidently angered the driver enough that he hung his arm out his window and gave the woman the finger...

    Federal agency warns of radicals on right

    What do you think? We who are conservative in their thinking are now being "watched"? This makes me a "radical"? I've never been active in my political thinking, but the more I read, the angrier I get. My country is becoming an entity that I no longer recognize. Washington Times -...

    How did you quit?

    Now that the taxes on cigarettes have climbed into the stratosphere I am again thinking about quitting. I have tried in the past, the longest time being 4 weeks, and just didn't have enough willpower to stay off them. I keep thinking about the taxes and it irritates me to no end that the...

    Professionalism and Appearance

    We all keep fussing about the lack of freight, the low rates, the company doesn't "care" about the O/O etc. etc. We did a swap a few days ago that required the use of our lift gate. It was in Chicago, east of 94 so low clearances may be a problem. Since we'd never been to this particular...
