    And Barry will TALK

    When are you talking about, OVM? The Crusades? If you remember correctly, the Iranians started things with their damm revolution. Khomenhi became a martyr overnight. Terrorism became a way of life throughout the Mid East. No... if we had cahones like the Russians, we would not be having this...

    Do you remember when

    I do! And one week a year they played Godzilla movies. Then another week, Gamorrah. :D

    And now the Athlete of the Decade

    He bet on his team to win. How does that influence you to do anything but get your team to play hard?

    Obama threatens military base closure

    If Bush did it too, I'd like to know on which bill(s); cause he just didn't have any luck getting things passed without bipartisan support. That theory just doesn't fly here. Clinton? Yeah... I could see Hillary putting him up to it. But Obama has the Chicago politics down pat. It wouldn't...

    How much would you charge an Owner?

    15% seems a little high. You figure the team gets 40, fuel-35 (depending on FSC). That's 75 right there. 7-10% sounds about right. During an average month, the "caretaker" would pull in around 700-1000 per truck.

    barry BOWS AGAIN

    I'll suggest a book... At Dawn We Slept by Gordon Prange. But to say the attack on PH, as Prange put it, was complete ignorance on the US's part is crazy. We did things to provoke Japan into war with us, including our oil embargo, and the plan to supply China with heavy bombers. Therefore, we...

    barry BOWS AGAIN

    Turtle... you come across as you believe everything the government tells you. If that's the case, you're as blind as those who think everything is a conspiracy. To bring up freemasons in this discussion is really off the wall, by trying to discredit those who maybe believe this particular...

    Newt & Pailen

    Obama was right in that some of us are in a "poverty of ambition". He was just wrong on who he was talking about.

    Newt & Pailen

    Cause they like the cookies! But they'll find out that a country fed on cookies tends to get sick. And we're in the middle of that now.

    Newt & Pailen

    I have come to the realization that we will never have another constitutionalist in the WH. Not enough people care about it. I also used to think a third party would benefit the conservatives. Now, I don't think so. We need to push the RHINOs out of the Republican party... same way the Dems have...

    barry BOWS AGAIN

    One piece of proof that we knew it was coming is that our carriers were all out on maneuvers, without escort. I find it stomach-turning that our servicemen were used as guinea pigs, and were given no chance to defend themselves. FDR should've been strung up for setting all those sailors up for...

    Woman On Top

    Umm... catchy, but no. It would work as well as this former governor candidate's slogan - Dickk Headlee for Jobs. :rolleyes:

    U.S. Job Loss Slows

    "Good news and bad news, sir. Good news is the growth of your prostate cancer is slowing. Bad news is it's still gonna kill you." "Hey coach! We held them to a field goal! Now we're only down 31-0 instead of 35-0!" Slow death is slow death.

    Why do you drive for that company?

    I drive for C&M because: -They keep me busy. -There isn't a better dispatch in the biz. -Cal isn't too high and mighty that he won't man the phones. -Cal isn't too high and mighty that he won't have a drink with his drivers (off duty, of course). -They'll never lie to you to get you in the...

    Paying team driver

    Going rate is 20% before surcharge. Accessorials tend to be different... I pay 1/2 detention and hand load/unload to my nephew/co-driver.

    November Location

    Had one helluva November! Either pre-dispatched, or loaded within a few hours of dropping, the whole month. Topping it off with a 1400 miler outta KS. I owe some dispatchers a pizza party. :D
