I'm spending this week supposedly regaining my strength, in order to be allowed to return to work next week. That stength thing is all relative; I'm not at all sure that I had much to start with! Anyhow, just wanted to tell all of you folks, thanks for the entertainment. Although I'm not in...

It has been rumored that Bill Cowher will being buying a home, in the Charlotte area, very soon. It appears that he is trying to get as far away from organized football as possible!!:+ :+

As I write this post, I am sitting on the edge of my bed, at Mercy Hospital, where I have been since Monday evening. Please forgive me, if I become "preachy". To save time, let me just refer you to a web search for COPD, and Emphysema. How I wound up in here for Thanksgiving is all outlined...

Today is the 18th anniversary of Hugo coming thru the Carolinas. Do any of you have any stories to share?

Just wondering... I hardly ever see any post about racing on the sports forum. For example, the Nextel All-Star race was this past Saturday night; over a million dollars went to the winner. And this coming Sunday is the Coca-Cola 600. Anybody coming to Charlotte for that?:+ :+

Whether you are a Democrat, Republican or Indenpendent, I can only hope that, if you choose to express your opinions/beliefs, in these forums, you indeed voted, for your choice of candidates yesterday and thereby earned the right to share these opinions/beliefs with others.

What causes a post to be placed in the midst of other post, from an earlier date, instead of being placed as the "last" post, on a given topic?

Three things that Southerners can't stand: Snakes, hurricanes and Yankees pulling a U-Haul.:+ :+

Went into one of our many, many Eckerd Drug Stores tonight and they were putting out CHRISTMAS stuff!! It won't be too many years before they just leave the stuff out all year.:'( :'(

This afternoon, from a cave, somewhere in Pakistan, Taliban Minister of Migration, Mohammad Omar, warned the United States that if military against Pakistan continues, Taliban authorities will cut-off America's supply of convenience store managers. And if this action does not yield sufficient...

Are costs associated with "start-up" considered deductible? For example: Qual-Comm installation, putting logos on the truck, expenses incurred attending orientation, etc. Thanks in advance, Mike

Since my "forced" retirement from expediting, I've been keeping up with the forums and all of the great topics you folks come up with, Now, I have a question: One of my co-workers is going to deliver an order to Charleston, SC, in a 24' Ryder truck. It is under 26,000 gvw. Does he have to log...

I have no idea how fast the grapevine works, but I felt that I should "officially" say good-bye to expediting. No, it wasn't the usual case of going broke, getting fired, or even getting angry and walking away. My knees got me! Came home on 08/10, went to my bone and joint doctor on the 11th...

I think I remember someone inquiring about how often a "D" unit got loaded(the truck, not the driver!!). I just ran the numbers from 09/01/2003-07/08/2004, and came up with 2.7 days between loads. I should point out that a lot of you would consider me to be "picky", but I don't consider that...

Does anyone have information regarding sevice/repairs on the Pro-Heat generator, in the Detroit area? As usual, thanks in advance for you replies.

Is there a source, other than "let's rape the drivers" truck stops, to purchase truck equipment? Specifically, I want to purchase a 1750-2000 watt inverter. As usual, thanks for your replies.

As some of you may remember, I have attempted to sell/lease my 2001, FL-70, a couple of times. I would like to ask if anyone has actually bought, or sold, a truck, on this website? As it says: Just curious.:) :)

A while back, I posted comments regarding a "noisy" clutch. Well, I've had the clutch replaced(all new, not rebuild), I've replaced the clutch linkage. Still, the noise goes on. The "experts" told me it was the throw-out bearing(s). Obviously, it wasn't. Any suggestions? Thanks for your...
