    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    No intentions of being a vigilante? What was he doing there in the first place and more importantly what was the self appointed neighbourhood watch captain doing there with a gun? It's the old saying, if you carry a gun you better be prepared to use it and if you do use it, you better be...

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    Yeah, that's the part I could never figure out. Same way with OJ. How can you be found criminally not guilty but still be allowed to be sued civilly. That should be the end of it.

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    Come on,it's painfully obvious the guy was a self appointed vigilante with a gun. We don't need idiots like him. The real sad part is now he will get rich off a book and/or movie deal or something.

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    Yes, after he asked Zimmerman why he was following him, so clearly he did not stop. If he suspected Martin of a crime he should have followed from a safe distance. He was a self appointed wannabe with a gun. Like i said, I have seen his type many times before. He initiated the confrontation by...

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    There is no doubt in my mind that Zimmerman was a wannabe that initiated the confrontation. That's where he is guilty. Maybe not legally guilty but he didn't stop when the 911 operator told him they didn't need him to follow trevon. He continued and he said on the 911 tape that "these guys...

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    Your are correct Dave, same as it was for OJ, not enough conclusive evidence to convict, and thats what makes our justice system great. My post is my personal feelings toward the case.

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    Well I would argue that he was guilty. He was a wannabe wannabe cop that would have made Barney Fife look competent. Trevon Martin may or may not have been guilty of something but this idiot clearly took the law into his own hands. He should have at least been found guilty of manslaughter.

    Garmin getting retarded

    I don't know about the other makes but anyone who has their garmin set to shortest route will experience getting routed off the interstate more often. Try setting to faster time and see if it improves. I have two garmins and they will both do this If set for shorter distance. I don't think this...

    Am I being to picky with DH miles

    Exactly! However if it is a significantly long deadhead, say for example over 200 miles, I would negotiate a minimum to the truck over and above dry run pay in case the load cancels after that long deadhead.

    BEWARE of BROKERS

    Yeah, that way they can skim another 10-20% off the top before offering the load to the driver:mad:

    Canada Expedite companies in Canada - information

    I have heard a lot of negative things about OTR as well, but what specifically about the others has left a bad taste in your mouth? If it's just recruiters BS telling you that you will get rich, then unfortunately that's an industry wide problem, but if there was something specific about pay or...

    Study says women 40% more likely to develop mental illness

    Yeah, no kidding eh! I swear these disorders are invented by the drug companies. We are living in a society where we are so over medicated it makes illegal drugs look pale by comparison. As far as women's mental health goes, I've had more than one woman tell me that all her problems are simply...

    Landstar info please

    Re: QRe: Landstar info please I agree wholeheartedly that not everyone is suited to one system. Thankfully there are choices. I guess the point I was trying to make was instead of people crying about fairness and honesty, they would be much farther ahead if they learned how to work the system...

    Landstar info please

    QRe: Landstar info please I laugh at the people who put down the LEA system just because they think that they will not get treated fairly. In their eyes that somehow equates to central dispatching being automatically fairer for them. Forget about Landstar, the people that think that really...

    is this the perfect sprinter alternative?

    Agreed. I was thinking it was the perfect alternative for GM fans as they are not in the "high top" arena yet and I don't see anything on the horizon from GM yet either.:( I knew about the HCV but for some reason I thought this was a little different. I thought I had discovered something new.:o

    is this the perfect sprinter alternative?

    I stumbled upon this while googling for "gmc high top vans". Anybody have any idea who manufactures these? Why haven't I seen any of them on the road? Is there something wrong? Forget the specs in the ad. Should be no reason why they would'nt build it on a 3500 chassis as well. This looks to...

    Watership Down

    Yes it did, and it remains one of my all time favourite animations. I was only 13 when I saw it for the first time and even though parts of it were a little disturbing to watch, it jolted me into realizing that it was not just humans that struggle to survive and perpetuate their species.
