It's been tried before and it didn't work out very well. Christian right leader George Rekers takes vacation with "rent boy" | Miami New Times

Tallying up the score so far I'm getting 0 for Colbert option 1 and 0 for Colbert option 2. I suppose he should have included option 3 - that the son of God was naive, misguided or in some other way just plain wrong. Can't accuse anyone here of having low self esteem, that's for sure. I...

“If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn’t help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we’ve got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don’t want to do it.”...

I see Tennessee is tied for #7. Tennessee has zero state income tax. The single paragraph article cites health, safely and pollution as being areas where Tennessee blows chunks. Maybe where I'm at isn't so bad. We pay a little, but we get more than a little in return.

Please excuse me for the whiplash. First they said whole grains and carbos are key to a good diet. Now they're saying fatty stuff like bacon is actually good for you. But Teamcaffee, you're lumping bacon in with biscuits and pizza as stuff to avoid. It's time for someone, somewhere to make...

2 things about this thread: People aren't being offended enough. I'll see what I can do. This seems to be the pick on women thread. I like to get in front of the curve whenever I can. For your amusement: I think it's time we stopped coddling women and started to fear them. First there...

So... Scientists are admitting defeat. Antarctic glaciers will inevitably slide into the ocean. Not anytime soon - it will be at least 200 years. But conservatives don't seem to be celebrating their victory. Why not? 20 years ago polls showed conservatives and liberals were equally...

And that brings up what got me thinking about drivers doing less stinking in the first place. I was cornered in a holding tank (aka shipping/receiving office) with a driver that made my eyes water the other day. Oh man, he was ripe. But that got me thinking - I don't believe I've had as many...

It's so we'll be a little less aromatic. Have you noticed the lack of available showers in the middle of the day? It's about to get worse as temps rise into June and July.

A manual shift transmission. I like automatics in cars. Point and go. But in a truck I prefer to make the call about what gear I should be in.

I read an article a few years back that said the main culprit is comets. Dust machines is what they are. But then again, exfoliate often! lmao <Good one los!> The dust magnet for me is eyeglasses.

This might be old news but it's new to me. I was in a Speedco the other day and heard drivers on the cb talking about how Conway has installed cameras in their trucks. And the cameras are pointed at the drivers! The lady behind the counter confirmed it, saying they service some Conway trucks...

I went back on the road the last week of March after a few months. I drive a straight and I've been doing well (until this week but hopefully that's just bad luck catching up to me). The freightblog at DAT has been reporting very good van rates up until last week. This week we're down a bit...

Speed is a complicated subject. When there is a lack of freight then going slow is the only way to go. But when there is an abundance of good paying freight then wasting a little fuel by going faster is more than made up for by being able to grab the next load without missing a beat. But of...

I don't know if it's their original location but the last remaining Henry's Hamburgers is in Benton Harbor, MI. The last Henry's burger I had was at least 30 years ago so I was pretty excited to stop in there the other day. $8 down the tubes. Note to self: you can't go home again - don't try.

Sorry, didn't mean to start a thread only to ignore it. Been working like a dog lately. Thx Xiggi. I picked one up today. Same price - virtually identical seat - different brand. It's not great, but it's a way bigger step up from awful than the stadium seat. At < $40 it's a pretty good...

I've got a plywood box in my truck that I use for storage that I'd love to have do double duty and be a chair on command. So I bought this: Amazon.com: Markwort Patented Deluxe Wide Model Stadiumchair (Black): Sports & Outdoors It's not awful. It's almost awful. (I have no idea why it got...

I saw a post the other day that was quoting a church billboard. Good one :)

So I suppose this means that climate change isn't happening. Hey, I knew that already. It was cold here today. Duh, can't you see? Cold means no global warming. Doesn't take a brainiac to figure that one out. :)

Gentleman (and you too Ragman :) ), the webpage is just talking about temperatures. Although I think I disagree with their definition of pleasant just a little. 85 might be pleasant for someone that works in an office and commutes in an air conditioned car, but someone that works in it...
