Amen! Doowop. Thank you for the added clarification of the verse regarding those who refuse to work. "Iron sharpeneth iron..." I believe that Joseph's personal relationship with the Lord, coupled the prayers of the saints, will allow him to be victorious. I am going to pray that God gets him...

Gee! Now you have more than me!:P I hope the ratings helped to boost your spirit. Php 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. That said, you are a better man that I am. It was a blessing for me to be a...

Brother Joseph, I'll take the liberty to call you brother, because I believe that you do know the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Savior. I would like to offer a couple of verses to encourage you and one verse of victory. In the first two verses we find some folks who were in dire straits...

If the paint under the graphic is fairly new (1-2 years old), or the surface had a good coat of wax before the graphic was applied, I just wait for a nice sunny day, let the metal warm up nicely (you can speed up the warming time with a hairdryer, heat guns can damage your paint) take your...

My settlements are directly deposited into my business checking account and I can transfer funds between that account and my personal checking account at will; no fees to do so. My bank charges no fees for an Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) to any company that permits EFT's as a payment method...

Ditto on the Zout Spray. The collars of my shirts get very oily. I spray them with Zout, toss them in with my others clothes and presto, they are sparkling clean! You can spray some Zout on soiled whites too! Zout and Tide seem to work together very well. Around the house, when washing...

Like Greg said, build in enough per mile to make it worthwhile to deadhead back out. When I get $1.59 per mile for my cargo van on a 660 mile run, that takes me 120 miles into Canada, I got no problem dropping off and heading back for the boarder. PS. I do not recommend loads that must cross...

Parking will be a very big issue if you go for an OTR TT. I haven't found any gyms that want an 18 wheeler in their lot. And I believe that a straight truck would probably meet the same resistance. Obviously a 6 wheeler would be somewhat easier to navigate around town, but it ain't like...

RE: Strike sort of over - Greg, I'll be the first to admit that I am very prone to getting the numbers transposed. Actually, it began in 1960: Murray filed a lawsuit (Murray v. Curlett) against the Baltimore School District in which she asserted that it was unconstitutional for her son William...

Broom, WOW! We do have some common ground. Ditto! Ditto! Ditto! How refreshing to hear the same things I learned years ago. I have often thought about writing a primer for new drivers. In my Driver's Ed class we had a box on the floor of the car with stand up weights inside the box. When the...

No offense taken. Actually, I always wanted to be a stand-up comic. I mix a good bit of humor into my messages. Example: Acts 27 is the story of a ship wreck. Somebody asked me why God would allow Paul to be ship wrecked. I explained that it was because of a woman driver. Somebody asked me to...

RE: Strike sort of over - Greg, Yep! America will get the desires of its heart. God tries the reins. He pulls a little, one way or another, to get us back on track, but if we continue to buck His leading, He drops the reins and allow us to try and run things without His leading. I the LORD...

RE: Strike sort of over - In response to a previous post by a retired UAW member, I live with walking distance of the DMAX plant and behind it sits a GM Truck assembly plant. My father was a GM employee who was able to get his degree through GMI and become an electrical engineer. He has seen...

Got a run from Bryan, OH to Lexington, TN. Arrived around midnight on Friday. Drove to the truck stop. Slept late on Saturday. Too far to deadhead home so I spent the weekend. Looked online for a close church to attend. Found one about 7 miles down the road. Started out on Sunday morning...

Good one Moot! I'll have to make a note of that one. Actually, their given names were: Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. They were of the children of Judah, the royal tribe, and probably of the house of David. The prince of the eunuchs changed their names, partly to show his authority over...

Greg, I am just going to remind them that I just bought a new 2008 GM van so I could help preserve their way of life.:+ Wonder if they will let me pass?

I am of the belief that saying no to sub-standard FSC's sends a message to the person bidding the loads. Obviously, a smaller carrier may get the load, but in the long run, the poor service, or lack of service, provided by cut-rate carriers will allow the business to return to the top carriers...

Wow! I really am blessed. I can find out how many trucks are in a particular area and if my dwell time exceeds their dwell time. If yes, I can carry my longer dwell time onto that board and become the number one unit. It's kind of like playing chess. I sat in a particular Michigan city for 36...

The numbers say I was a successful O/O in 2006, but I left the industry for a time. It was my desire to help out a small church in northern Ohio. We were trying to sell our home and move up to that area, because we were driving 320+ miles roundtrip every Sunday. While waiting to sell our home I...

Edited reprint. WOODSTOCK, Ont. -- Japanese truckmaker Hino might be making headway into the medium-duty conventional truck market, but there’s nothing conventional about the company president Hiro Omori. The theme of the meeting was “Hino Rocks.†The show opened with a four-piece rock...
