    T1000 maybe 3rd time is the charm

    For those of us who know little [or even less] of reefers, Dabluzeman's posts are pretty informative. I totally understand the frustration of being told the unit failed, and think you guys handled it with more aplomb than I might have, esp the second time. Glad the nightmare is over, and hope...

    Baby via Fedex

    Tis interesting, the way it throws our ideas of gender for a loop, lol. But the fact is that the basic male or female division isn't always as clear cut as most people assume. There's a lot of reasons why those whose gender is a little um, fuzzy, maybe? have always kept it hidden, but it's...

    Pending Violence?

    But where will they take their money when they've extracted the profit from everywhere? O - is THAT what the private Space X company is really for? :eek:

    Driving solo straight truck for fleet owner

    I know I never want to drive t/t again, but we're all different. If you are looking for any particular info, just ask - we'll try to steer you in the right direction. Or we'll [inadvertently] talk you right out of it, lol. ;)

    Whats wrong with a name tag?

    Tattoos would be a very bad thing, when they reach adolescence - I can imagine them getting the number of dots changed on a weekly basis, lol.

    Stupid Road Signs

    I still don't get the "No turn" sign at the merge point of freeway entrance ramps [every one of them!]. Is that a problem? And the "No stopping in median" signs - I've never seen anyone do that on purpose, lol.

    Coolant leak

    I don't have a problem climbing up & down, it's the lack of 'reach' that makes it precarious - and hard to apply leverage once I'm up there. What I need is like those 'reach extender' thingamabobs, but one that can push and turn at the same time, lol. Let me know if you find anything like that. ;)

    Pending Violence?

    The so called Bush tax cuts produced a whole lot of [more] profit for a lot of companies, but it didn't produce more jobs, did it? According to most reports, companies are simply stockpiling the money, citing 'uncertainty' for the lack of hiring. Banks introduced ATM's to increase their profits...

    What are safe ways for owner to pay for gas without being screw over?

    That's good news, cause I tried them once and hated them, lol. The key never worked nice, and they were a big pita, imo.

    First Lady's False Fairy Tale of Struggle

    C'mon, OVM, you have to know that if it's on Breitbart, it's biased towards the conservative view, same as some sites are biased towards the liberal view. I like this analysis, from the Christian Science Monitor, myself, because it points out what matters to most women, whichever side of the...

    Coolant leak

    Gottago has one, but it wouldn't help - being on the outside of the tire would just put my stubby lil arms further from the tank in the middle of the engine, sigh. What I need is a more secure place to stand within reach of it, without damaging the hoses & other stuff underfoot.

    Driving solo straight truck for fleet owner

    If that's the only thing you're worried about, sure - there's quite a few of us out here doing just that. I don't know if we'll be able to continue if EOBRs become mandatory, because the problems of hours sitting at a dock and lack of parking [not such a big deal for s/ts as for t/ts] are being...

    Pending Violence?

    Wow - you guys sure know how to pile on, lol. Let me see if I can answer some of your points: Turtle: I'm sure every past Prez has faced the same attitude from the losing side, but not to the extent Obama has, not even close. and I agree that no one is attacking the root caus[es], but they never...

    Whats wrong with a name tag?

    I love the ingenuity - but wonder what happens when they hit adolescence, and parents REALLY need to know which kid is which, lol. :eek:

    Coolant leak

    Update: after a truck wash, I schmeared some clear sealant all over the spot, and so far, so good - not leaking. I am near Blacksburg, so if that changes, I might send SloRide a PM, but I think it's gonna hold until I get the tank changed. I am definitely getting it changed. The new one will...

    Pending Violence?

    What did I blame Romney for, that he hasn't done? I made the best prediction of his future actions based upon his past, and his current campaign statements. And I said a large part of the blame is due the Tea Party, who are not the same as OWS, as the TP is firmly ensconced in Congress, and...

    Coolant leak

    I like that idea, Easy - I've been sitting [in a new spot] for an hour, just a tiny bit of coolant leaking. Closest service center is 75 miles away, in Roanoke, and they [surprise!] can't look at it till Monday. Think I'll schmear some JB, go back in service, and see what happens. Thanks for the...

    Romney 'new' to diplomacy

    Seriously: if insulting public officials [London's mayor] and inadvertently revealing info he shouldn't [meeting with intelligence officials] is how he acts when he's trying hard to prove how well he'll represent the US, how much worse if he were the POTUS, feeling really powerful? Romney has...
