    Waterboarding is torture says McCain

    My opinion [an an American voter] was that McCain would not be a good POTUS - but that doesn't mean I disagree with everything he said. On this subject, he's correct: torture [calling it 'enhanced interrogation' doesn't fool anyone with an IQ above room temperature] is illegal, immoral, and it...

    Here's To The 99 Percenters........

    It seems to be PC among some to characterize OWS as being about "life is too hard" and "I don't get any handouts" but that's about as accurate as Fox News - the organization that ran a poll on the candidates, and when Ron Paul was leading, made it disappear. Because it's all about what they...

    Paterno should be canned.

    I read somewhere that investigators asked the university officials to 'not annoy' Mcwhatsisname, because they really NEED his cooperation. If he's fired before there's a trial, or they no longer need him, he may not want to testify or cooperate any more.

    getting in the industry

    Not making any assumptions, but sometimes, money isn't the deciding factor. I could make more money if I went back to nursing, [and get great benefits] but I didn't enjoy the JOB [silly me, I thought it was about taking care of sick & injured people, but that was last on my list of tasks]...

    Bagged by a 6 point buck!

    What I was thinking is insurance - if you are ever [God forbid] injured in an accident, it would be typical for the insurance to refuse to pay because the vehicle was 'modified' in a way that cancelled out it's protection of the occupants. [Like voiding a warranty.] Granted, the risk may be...

    Marker side lights

    Denny: if you don't have a Driver's Manual [all I have for this Sterling is the Maintenance one, not much help for simple stuff], there is a PDF one you can find online - I assume it has a diagram for changing the lights.

    He's a capital 'I', in fact: takes up less space than any other, but somehow crams a lot into it, lol.

    anyone ask what load is paying, 1st?

    I haven't posted any negative experiences - not because I haven't had any, but because when I did, I brought it to the attention of dispatch, and it got taken care of, so there's nothing to complain about. If they didn't fix it, it's because they couldn't [NLM] and I understand that. There's...

    Our company

    Once again: kudos to John Elliot for putting it out there. It's been tough, but that's part of every life, no matter who you are - what matters is how you deal with it. I'm staying with the best carrier I know of, because we too are Load 1. :)
