    Ban the Bulb

    Just an FYI, the latest energy bill has set a date to stop marketing the incandescent light bulb. I find this reasonable to a point, but the energy saved is kind of taken up in the production of the replacement bulb, the compact fluorescent bulb. There is another problem, I have yet been...

    Retrofitting

    Seeing we have some more bad news with CARB and all the other crap from the EPA coming soon, I am wondering if anyone out here is going to go through the process to retrofit your equipment to be able to drive in California or later on the US. What I mean for those who don't own a 2007 or later...

    And what are you doing for Christmas?

    I don't know where else to put this so I figure why not here. This year I am rather greedy and somewhat selfish towards myself. I was going to buy a Sony Reader but instead decided to put some money into gifts for others. I already got a Nintendo Wii some time ago, played the thing for a few...

    Say it ain't so

    I have been reading a copy of the Mitchell Report and I think that if the league does little in the way of punishing people for their use of drugs, then the congress should pull their antitrust exemption and let the MLB fall from it's own weight. The other thing is the everyone who is named in...

    Another day surfing the web

    I have a list of sites I go to every day but I also include a few that are off the wall or rather in bad taste. One site for today is http://www.thepeoplescube.com It has some rather offensive things on it but has as a couple things I found funny. Rosie O'Donnell: 'Christians more...

    Hate Crime

    It does not really amaze me that the shootings in Colorado are not getting a lot of press, seeing they happened at a church and a missionary school, but what really bothers me is that they are legally defined as hate crimes against one religion and I have yet read the FBI's involvement in the...

    UN and global warming

    I was reading all this stuff coming out of Bali and two really important things have really caught my eye. One is this comment - from Bloomberg - It's very hard for the public to understand that you come together with so many people to a very distant place and cause a lot of emissions, and...

    Who's in Cincinatti?

    I am sitting here resting, enjoying the sunshine and surrounded by FedEx, C&M and Panther trucks, with one FedEx truck. Anyone online?

    Divorce is bad for the earth.

    Divorce Squanders Earth's Resources, http://tinyurl.com/yrklgw Now that there is a link between divorce and destroying the planet, people will take notice and help the earth. Scr*w the idea that divorce damages the children who are sometimes caught in the middle - the earth matters more.

    If they would put so much effort into...

    ...things for the people who elect them we would all be better off. I just read "New Obama Web site on Clinton criticism" http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071203/ap_po/on_the2008_trail and wonder why so much effort from this guy in the primaries - maybe we need to start eliminating the primary...

    The FairTax -- The Truth

    By Neal Boortz Tuesday, November 27, 2007 Last Thursday Townhall contributor Hank Adler published a column on this website entitled “A Hard Look At The Fair Tax (sic)â€. Almost immediately the emails started pouring into my show – literally by the hundreds – urging me to post a response...

    C/D unit question

    How many of you solo owners/operators of C and D units out there in EO land have removed the front passenger seat and replaced it with some sort of table or storage unit? In my case, I have had one person sit in that seat to fix Idle Aire and once my wife came a long for a ride to my father's...

    Get ready for higher pump prices!!!

    There has been an explosion and the one of the main pipelines moving crude form Canada to the US has been shut down. Some say this is one fifth of our supply of crude. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071129/ap_on_re_us/oil_pipeline_fire Just imagine how much oil passes through a 34 inch pipeline.

    Helping the earth

    From Neal Boortz EVERYONE GO TAKE A WHIZ IN THE OCEAN No, I'm not trying to be nasty here. It just might save the planet! It seems that some climate researchers are investigating the idea of dumping huge quantities of urea into the oceans on the theory that this will cause these oceans to...

    GVW, Logging and Deer

    No this is not a logging question I already know I have to log but I had a conversation with another expediter today and brought up the point that someone in congress wanted to redefine what a truck is to help farmers avoid the DOT registration. This led to me asking if they would raise the...

    Oprah and Expediting?

    I know that a few may know about this but anyone going to watch Oprah and see (guess what carrier) who plays Santa Claus this year for her "pet" project? I don't know if I am allowed to give out this state secret or not or maybe it is posted already and I missed it?

    Detroit, what can I say

    People think I am making up how horrible this city is, it is a dirty, disgusting place that has gone down hill more than ever in the last 5 years. The following story has happened here before a few times but not resulting in a death. From the Detroit News. DETROIT -- An argument over gas...

    Writer's strike, is it a real loss?

    I am reading about the writer's strike and think that there are only a couple shows that really matter to me. Those shows I can live without. Otherwise they can all stick their "greedy heads in the oven and turn on the gas". I am sorry until they start writing better material, there should be...

    Defining Hypocrisy

    This global warming/climate change will not be solved until there is some seriousness and examine the ‘experts’ and spokesman of the cause. It amazes me that many will point the people who defend and follow Bush and other people are lemmings, are uninformed and stupid. The war in Iraq, the...

    Weak Dollar....

    ....what it means and why it is happening. I am going to be one of those hate radio right wing followers for a moment and post something I feel is important. Seeing that the dollar is slipping, the heritage foundation has done a report that points to an important issue that I think needs to...
