With nothing other than brown food on display at the checkout, I suspect the 'Frying J' wasn't a typo, lol. I guess one just orders by shape: "I'll have a couple of the long round ones and a handful of the chunks" because it's ALL fried brown food. Sorry I missed the conference call - I wanted...

I think gun owners should agree to the tax, IF legislators agree to pay a Dumb Ideas tax, an Incompetent tax, and an Overpaid tax, too. :rolleyes:

OK, I read the article, in which the writer says it's race baiting - but I didn't see the vid, or read the actual speech, so I can't make any comment on whether it is or isn't. The writer didn't link to the speech he refers to - can you?

Turtle: your point [the difference between possible and reasonable] is well taken. However, my last comment was that reason may mean something different to each party. Faced with a $2000 tow bill, I [or the truck owner] may well decide it's unreasonable [or even impossible], and I only hope I...

Per Wiki: As of Feb, 2011, the validity of a law requiring that a person provide anything more than stating his name [emphasis mine] has not come before the Supreme Court. It's splitting hairs to insist that one doesn't have to 'answer any questions', because one could simply hand over a photo...

That was amusing - but do we know for a fact that it wouldn't happen? Maybe that explains Atlantis, eh? :rolleyes: Mr Johnson's fuzzy logic [from a clip, the context of which isn't given - what was he talking about, anyhow?] is not what I'm talking about - I'm referring to statements of well...

Even better: try it on a judge, lol.

You are correct. Now go say it to a LEO who's asked you a question, and let us know how it works. :rolleyes:

Muttly: exactly my point: not one person has offered a single example of a Dem saying something that was then denounced as absolutely nuts by his own party.

Trucks break down even when meticulously maintained - but as the maintenance is strictly the owner's responsibility, some are more meticulous than others. In any case, it certainly isn't the carrier or customer's fault, so I can't see why they would be obligated to pay for a breakdown situation...

Any LEO who believes any of the things you posit would find he's wrong [and unemployed] after you sue him and win, because he would definitely be wrong. As for your right to remain silent, that applies only if and when you have been accused of a crime, not anywhere, anytime you object to being...

Xiggi, I'm not talking about saying stupid things, I mean things that flat out contradict well known and proven FACTS - it seems the Republicans have a monopoly on those people, is all I'm saying. As for revenue vs spending, if the revenue hadn't dropped [lost jobs & taxes] the spending wouldn't...

Neither is the assumption that the driver's credentials [license, medical card] are up to date - it's implicit that the driver is responsible for maintaining them. Ditto with the condition of the truck, because neither the carrier or the customer is, correct?

Shut the f ront door! [you have to time that millesecond beat after the 'f' just right, lol] I SAID 'presumably' didn't I? :p

How could it possibly be 'personal' when 1: it wasn't my question being ignored, 2: I hate football, and 3: I don't watch tv either? I just thought it was rude, and unprovoked rudeness tends to make me snippy, [I'm pretty far from perfect too, lol] but it wasn't personal. Carry on. :)

If you need explicit, I'll leave that to Rocketman, as I don't have a copy of the contract handy. Implicit is good enough for me, though: when I accept a load offer, it is my responsibility to follow through to delivery, and that's all I need to know. Because I don't own the truck, I may be...

I leave the legal citations to the experts, because [like Bible quotations], someone can almost always find another that directly contradicts yours. Common sense, however, says the LEO has a legitimate reason to ask if one is carrying, and I can't think of any legitimate reason to refuse to...

What ^he^ said: a deal's a deal, and accepting a load means doing everything possible to deliver it as promised. Even if it costs more than it pays, you keep your word, or it's worthless.

OK, let me rephrase it: Dems who publicly reject facts long accepted as true by nearly every other person on both sides of the aisle.
