I noticed a couple things going on, one is the Mark Forums Read View Forum Leaders at the bottom of the groups of forums. It is interesting that these are just hanging out there between the groups and 'whats going on' box. I'm not really...

I had an interesting talk with a fellow expediter who claims he can get four full size skids, 48X48 on the floor, not stacked, in his truck. He has a 10 foot box van that is 90 inches wide on the inside. He also claims he can get four totes in the box with room to spare which I can to but I...

Obama, our great leader and messiah, has made the comment in Ohio while campaigning; "your employer it's estimated would see premiums fall by as much as 3,000 percent, which means they could give you a raise." OK I guess the employer is going to give on h*ll of a raise. A friend pays $3500...

So after looking at a few sprinters this weekend for an expediter and seeing a one interesting one, I wondered how EO members have their's setup?

OK after a well heated discussion today over the issue of company vs. free loving expediters, I put this question to a number of expediters to see what they think. So now I am creating a thread to ask the same question to see if I get the same answers. First the situation; You are either a...

The first person who has been charged with treason in 50 years may be coming home to face the charges. I only hope our great president doesn't pardon him or interfere with the court case and the guy is executed by hanging. Pakistan captures American-born al-Qaida POS

Well I got the honors :) I started March off with a ROAR.

Seeing this is again posted in the FedEx forum, here is my take - My comments are in RED and the actual regulations for EOBRs and the interpretations are added at the end of the quote. The Actual regulations §395.15 Automatic on-board recording devices. (a) Authority to use automatic...

This is from the FedEx forum, I don't know what the big deal is with the electronic logging thingy but I wonder what happened to the hours of service rules. OK I know people sort of fudge this, so it really isn't a big deal to me as a solo to deal with moving and not moving/unloading and not...

This was something I wrote for another site a while ago. OK to put this to rest and because it is a sunny 90 degree day where I'm at and I am bored on the balcony watching the waves crash, I figure I would write something for the 'How To' Section. I been asked a lot of times “How do I do...

Makes you wonder what's wrong with people - when in Rome ... From the AP;

So last week, the WSJ reported that Obama's chief of staff called other democrats "f***** retarded" for their plan on trashing the conservative democrats who are against the health care take over. So Palin decided that this was offensive for some reason and jumped on obama to fire him, which...

OK in the past week or so we have heard all this 'stuff' about Toyota. GM, Ford and Chrysler seem to be desperate along with the US media to trash Toyota. The doom and gloom that Toyota is having, many seem to think this is a BIG downfall for them, but unlike the massive recalls Ford Chrysler...

Is it me or did I just miss the point entirely. The Haitian people are going to rebuild the parts of their country that were destroyed, the estimated cost will be $3B over a 10 year period - most of the funds seem to be committed from countries who are willing to help. This includes new...

Chrysler's lawyers have convinced a judge in NY to move ahead with their liquidation plan. This was that 438 plan where they sell off things like equipment and property (they sold some land here in Detroit for $2000 and then the state is trying to make sure the new old Chrysler clean it up)...

No one seemed to notice or care Air America is no more - officially. Must be something about it somewhere? Yep there it is, Time has a clip about it. Amazing that they had to subsidize the network while others stand on their own - makes you wonder.

Ever wonder what some network execs are thinking? NBC has cut O'Brian loose to get Leno back in the late night slot at the same time thinking that they will recapture the audience for their 10 to 11 slot they insulted when they played the Leno shuffle to get him his "own show". They lost to...

I'm reading the little news bit; Feds: Michigan will qualify for high-speed rail money And it is ironic that this has come up at the "North American International Auto Show" of all places. This is a twisted region, we don't have real use of our public transportation system because of the...

So there is an "attack" on a plane. The attack failed and the people on the plane reacted. We didn't have an Air Marshal on board to help. The Airlines staff wasn't the one who stopped it. But it was a passenger. So our great leader was on vacation in the lala land of Hawaii - his fifth...

Here is a good video everyone is making a big stink about here. Some Mom's (freep) are saying it is unfair and bashes Detroit and this morning on the radio I heard "it is racist". It has some nice scenery in it, you may see some of the better places where there is shows the horrors of war but...
