    Ok, here we come : Africa, mercy and may God help us...

    Actually we have two drone bases and Army Special Forces bases. One in Kenya, watching pirotes on the coast and Sudan watching Egypt and the suez. They've been there for a couple of years now. As a Viet Nam vet with 3 tours nothing surprises me anymore. They threw away the vets from Korea...

    Reminder: Reward Yourself!

    When I'm 70 and all what's left of my muscle mass is dragging the ground I'm going to stop in front of their restaurant, pull out my camping shower and take a shower with nothing but my santa hat on. Then I will ask them to punch my card.

    How common is overloading vans and Sprinters?

    Well over 10k is a combination license in a commercial application and another little known thingee is the trailer hitch. Like in SC where I'm at a ball connection to a trailer in commercial use is illegal. It must be a penal hook. Just a small thing with big ticket results. Besides that...

    Slow cargo van freight?

    It sounds to me like every one thinks freight only comes off a board, hence forth it's slow for everyone. Some companies (ie. Bolt, Load 1 etc) have companies that only do business with them and not on a board. Most of those folks are running.

    New Chinese Stimulus Plan

    listening to drivers complain......

    Repair our tarnished reputation? Well they have been repairing them for the 43 years I've been out here and it keeps getting worse. I guess the only way to make it better is 50c a gallon gas and $3 a mile freight, a $250 truck. Oh yes when you get home have a playboy bunny waiting to serve you...

    Fast-tracked trials and executions.

    Two reasons McVeigh got the juice so quick. 1) He was the first to get the death penalty after it was re instated for Federal crimes. 2) He asked to be executed and did not take any appeals. Bush had nothing to do with his trial or punishment. Gitmo on the other hand is a waste. We're...

    listening to drivers complain......

    Most drivers would complain if they got 100% of the revenue. I enjoy listening to drivers who think it's easy to be a broker. Broker gives driver 99% of the revenue, happy driver. Driver calls back when he's back in the area and the phone's disconnected. Wonder what happened to them?? I saw...
