    Obama sets out energy future for less dependency on oil

    Lesson Number One Oil is a global commodity If you can grasp that basic and important concept, then you don't need the department of Energy or the US government meddling in where they can only **** it all up and having the last six presidents tell us about some fictional energy policy they...

    Detention Time; What do You Get?

    Well Phil, my contract says something to the affect that I get a percentage of what is negotiated with the customer IF I ask for it. I have not asked for it with the seven or eight runs that ran into 4 or 5 hours of sitting there and doing nothing but ONLY once the agent took it upon themselves...

    Which State is best to relocate to?

    Just as good, but I remember eating there and not liking the fries - that was 15 years ago. Hey get this, Detroit is using some new law from Lansing to curtail commercial advertising of strip clubs. It seems that those racy, covered models on those bill boards on the strip clubs is too much...

    The Plastic Chair

    I have to ask this; How many of you know how many truckers are caught up in the "overnight customs sanfu" at the border? I bet you something like .01% of all the shipments that go through the bridge here in Detroit/Windsor IF that. The amount of traffic that comes through this gateway is...

    Odyssey Dawn... odyssey gone wrong.

    Well I would agree but something I read seems to say otherwise. There is something in the contract you sign that said to the effect they can call you up after you walk out the door, I know the vets I work with tell me that, my father had the same thing and even my uncles who served in WW2 and...

    What's up with EO lately?

    Remotely? I have problems too, the other day it was horrible with images - so bad I had to block all the images from EO. NO other site gave me this type of a problem.

    Odyssey Dawn... odyssey gone wrong.

    Again I will argue the point that it is wrong from my point of view. Your service doesn't end at the time of separation but some time after that according to the commitment you made. BUT I wonder about the Oath itself, it is about defending the constitution so what action does one take when...

    The Plastic Chair

    Are you sure? I mean it is rather an arrogant statement at best that your paper work is perfect when you can't get across the border. What? you think FedEx has some pull? What seems to happen is random searches, nothing more, you draw the short straw and go through the check or get the...

    ACLU - "Communism is the Goal"

    He's an entertainer, he has a staff who messes up quite often and he doesn't make too many corrections because he is there to entertainer, nothing more.

    Financial Tracking Tools

    I noticed this forum popped up out of the blue and said “hey great place for a first post” So how do you track you finances? Here is what I am and have used in the past. I started to use the OOIDA Cost Per Mile spread sheet It was a great help when I got started. I modified it a...

    ACLU - "Communism is the Goal"

    Well I would have agreed with some of this if the idea that republicans and democrats are different but they are not. Most conservatives are just like liberals and more likely than not they want to control the people. Many conservatives keep preaching they want free markets and people to have...

    Odyssey Dawn... odyssey gone wrong.

    Well everything after Philippine–American War to date because we have yet to have a true conservative or Jacksonian president in office since TR got into it. NOT being there as an occupying force, stabilizing force or a protection force within 3 years after hostilities stop. We are still in...

    Sarah Palin Is Definitely Not Done Whining About the Press

    Sarah who? And should I care? I mean ... OK Sarah, I voted for you and tolerated the bull that went along with your family but at this point, please go somewhere and be quiet for a few months because we don't really care to hear things we already know about.

    Which State is best to relocate to?

    Illinois has Oprah, which I wouldn't wish that on Bin Laden. You need to do something about that first.

    Well did you get the old parts? They are not cores or "heavy" so you can check it out yourself in your spare time.

    XM Radio for my driver

    OK I understand that but still not to be an a** about it, get out and drive before you put any other commitment into the idea. A business plan is great for preparing the business aspect of things, it helps when to know what to do or ect. ... but the people part is the biggest issue in this...

    The Plastic Chair

    The thing that gets me is most of the problems that have happened to me are the fault of the carrier and nothing more than that. The brokers are easy scape goats, they can process a load with a good customer in a matter of minutes, not hours but it is the customer who can cause the delay. The...

    Sold out!!

    Wow when I saw this I thought "Great ... they sold out Charlie Sheen's My Violent Torpedo of Truth stop here in Detroit on Saturday" but it is just a dinner with a lot of quacking ducks.

    Which State is best to relocate to?

    Yes Gator, we are rude and don't like outsiders. We have some of the best rebuilt roads in the world, they come pre-pot holed and crumbling apart before the cement is cured (point in case I75 north before the "bridge to canada" has a huge section of cement that is becoming a car black hole and...
