    zoning board to property owner: tear down house or go to jail

    Really, guys? My granddaughter are 13 & 8, they live near Orlando, and they are outside playing almost all day long. They ride their bikes [or scooters or skateboards], chalk on the driveway, play in the sprinklers, catch the little lizards that zoom through the landscaping, and visit the...

    Amish Girl Killed In Buggy/Truck Accident

    We don't know whether the Schneider post accident drug screen was done or not, because the article didn't mention it either way. Nor do we know whether the 'drug recognition expert' was called in for a reason, or just routine CYA in an accident involving a commercial truck. One comment...

    zoning board to property owner: tear down house or go to jail

    clcooper: I gotta tell you: if you were making a lot of noise at 2AM, I sure wouldn't "be a MAN" by knocking on your door to tell you about it. Common sense should tell you that it's not the time to make a lot of noise, and if you can't stop your dog from barking/howling enough to bother people...

    C & M Good? Bad?

    Rob: you've got a GREAT support crew here - people want to see you succeed, because being unemployed is brutal, and being broke just plain sucks. But for those times when you need an answer quicker than online, you might want to find someone [or two] who you can call with questions - maybe...

    H.O.S. revisited again.

    P: we do take the fuel time as 'OD, ND', but it isn't deducted from the time figured for transit. [Sometimes, even the time at the shipper isn't deducted: the clock starts when we arrive at shipper, which means making up time from the jump]. If you've ever sat in a truck stop waiting for some...

    Second Amendment Foundation requests an injunction against Illinois

    I hope you won't do it that way again, there were so many extraneous letters it was nearly impossible to follow. It's kind of hard to believe Il would even consider passing such asinine laws - they knew it would be challenged and overturned [it's unconstitutional ]don't they have higher...

    Closing arguments on Anthony trial

    I wouldn't credit the defense so much as blame the media [the jury didn't want to look like they were influenced by the circus atmosphere], and the prosecution, because the jury didn't think Casey has any real motive. The state could have done a better job of portraying how big a threat Caylee...

    C & M Transport

    Rob: one of the most important things to remember is not to pay attention to people who complain, but use vague terms instead of credible [and checkable] reasons. For what it's worth, in the 8 yrs I've been here, I've heard nothing bad about them. And the one time I backed to their dock [a...

    What has you ripping your hair out sometimes in this business?

    Camper had it nailed in post #3: read back a ways, and you'll find a lot of what has us ripping our hair out sometimes. And if you find some way to create an app that solves any of those issues, I might even buy it. [And it'd be the first, lol] Note to Lugnut: Turtle replied to exactly the...

    Closing arguments on Anthony trial

    Nope. We have to accept the jury's verdict, but Nancy Grace is 100% optional. As is helping Casey Anthony profit from her behavior, and I will not watch any program on which she appears [and if I can, I'll email the network to say why I'm tuning out] nor pay for any media that might contribute...

    Living in a Politically Correct World.

    Diva: has the intolerance you refer to occurred outside the Soapbox? I don't think so, which is what Scott means: it doesn't happen in everyday conversation. It happens when people proclaim themselves [to the public at large] as part of a particular group - when you do that, you're inviting...

    Its official as USA and Mexico sign pact to screw American truckers

    Opponents say it will cause employers to move even more jobs to Mexico. Ray LaHood says it won't. The answer lies in what employers have done in the past, which says Mr LaHood is full of it. It will further aggravate unemployment, [without employment, what have we got?] and the big differences...

    Closing arguments on Anthony trial

    She also Googled the tv show "One Tree Hill", specifically the 100th episode, in which a child is stolen by the nanny. And she deleted every entry on her MySpace account for the months preceding June - what incriminating stuff did she manage to dispose of, I wonder.... And finally: the jury gets...

    Closing arguments on Anthony trial

    So, if anyone needs anyone out of their way, now we know: chloroform, duct tape, and just make sure the body won't be found for at least 6 months, and you're golden. PS I looked up "how to make chloroform" too - it's amazingly simple!:eek:
