    Birthday! Happy Birthday jelliott

    Point proven: I have a minion on my dashboard, lol. [Not that one, because I didn't find that one, but they're all good for a smile.]

    Government Run Health Care

    Tis - and I'd make the same end of life decision: palliative care only, no chemo/radiation or surgery to add a few months [of discomfort!] at a very great cost. [I've already told my family that if I get 'that' diagnosis, I'm heading for Oregon, lol.] But I don't see a lot of people making that...

    Government Run Health Care

    A big part of the reason people want a single payer system is the trouble they're having with getting medical care already. So many doctors are specializing, finding a general practice family doc is tough, and the waits for appointments are much longer than seems reasonable. [When I first began...

    Deciding the best course of action. OPINIONS WANTED

    True dat - but you also can't compare the comfort & earning potential of a van to a straight, either. And when it's a team, a van is often just too small for comfort. Besides, whether you go to a truckstop or a WalMart or a Y, you gotta go somewhere.....

    Deciding the best course of action. OPINIONS WANTED

    First: congratulations! Having a significant other who is ready [or at least willing] to drive team with you puts you in the best possible position, because every carrier & fleet owner prefers same-household teams. Assuming you're willing to learn and work, you can do very well in expediting...

    Birthday! Happy Birthday jelliott

    Happy birthday to the man who appreciates so much: his heritage, freedom, loved ones, and the zany crew that work for him. Hope you had the wonderful day that you deserve.

    Top 10 Reasons Libertarians Aren’t Nice To You

    Gambling is legal, marijuana is on the way, but prostitution? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA That will never be allowed.

    Deciding the best course of action. OPINIONS WANTED

    You newbies need to challenge some of your preconceptions, like: going to the gym is only possible [or easy] in a van. If you have to go to a gym, [and I don't think you do, but if you think so], it can be done in a straight truck. Google earth is a wonderful resource, and so is the phone: when...

    Questioning why a comment was made is always about motive, and never about supporting one's statements? And if it is about motive, is that not better than assuming one knows the motive already? I am sorry there are people who feel they need to "post a doctoral thesis" defending their opinions...

    Too many voters

    So, you don't think the "underreporting" of the county's population that is inevitable when people tell the census takers "It's none of your business!" is a plausible reason? I do, because I heard quite a few people saying they intended to say exactly that, or already had. Those would be people...

    I imagine some might speak other languages, but when one has that kind of money, one can simply hire translators. Why is this relevant? BTW, I picked the Saudis because I know they have been treated at the Cleveland Clinic.

    Hazmat question?!

    If that article on hazmat isn't a sticky, it oughtta be - it's the most concise and clear explanation of a subject that confuses many drivers I've ever seen.

    FMCSA News

    I very much prefer dealing with the violations caused by my own errors, as opposed to those that occur when driving according to a time clock. I have quite a bit of experience with time clocks: they're implacable, unrelenting, and unforgiving. That's pretty scary when you're subject to any...

    That worked well

    I notice that those first for profit facilities were specifically for illegal immigrants and juvenile offenders, both of which are outside the mainstream of criminal court jurisdiction. It has morphed into something that it was not intended to be, and it's not something to be proud of.

    Like RLENT, I'm wondering: who is "they"? Because the only gun control laws I've read of don't involve 'disarming' people - not completely, as you imply. Law abiding citizens will still be able to defend themselves - that's not going to change. As for 'gun free zones', many of them are...

    That worked well

    What I'm referencing is the conservative/tea party mantra of lower taxes & regulations. Granted, they have no problem increasing regulations on things they disapprove, like Planned Parenthood, but that mantra is the rallying cry & litmus test for conservatism. Cutting taxes results in cuts to...

    It sounds to me like he understands that Obamacare simply sticks a brightly colored bandaid over an ugly mess. Insurance won't solve the actual problem, which is the unaffordable cost of health care today. The causes are many, the solutions unpopular, so the bandaid wins, as usual.

    The first question is easy: America has some very advanced specialists & technology, which are also very expensive. What the princes of Saudi Arabia can afford is not available to the likes of you, me, or the majority of Americans. It might as well be on the moon, for all the good it does us.
