    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    I don't follow you, maybe I am too distracted by Rove trying to be a talk show host.

    The Economy In Pictures......

    Crap, I thought it was a bunch of pictures of the New Detroit with all the money that has been recently dumped into it. I was looking forward to seeing empty fields of burned out houses, buildings falling down and roads with dead dogs and garbage all over the place. Instead all I saw were...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    I think we are a h*ll of a lot more in-tune and understanding of any culture than any one else. And have been for over a century. Without our ablity to be a multilateral culture in the late 19 century, we could not have grown at all. Just look at France, they don't get what an immigrant is or...

    Are'nt ALL attorneys pond scum?

    Well smarta**es, I was waiting for Streaks BIG announcement. I have to tell you, I'm saying get one from experience. I am not selling anyone's services and have two great stories about lawyers and trucking accidents. Pretty much it comes down to when things are stressful, it is great to have...

    Who to believe on the Economy

    What?!? We may have another recession in this Great Recession? Who would have known? Interest rates where they are almost giving you money to borrow. Taxes lower than what some think they should be. Bailing out company after company after government entity. What's wrong with the...

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    BUT stop what? Building something that represents a religion or stopping the killing based on religion? If you want to stop the latter, it is simple, the entire world has to be involved and they simply are not. France has just now decided to fight, Germany is passive about external fights...

    I wonder how this will impact the states who use the DOT numbers as part of their system?

    Educate the Public

    They do in some parts. Some have signs showing a truck and a car cutting it off, while others, like Michigan have new electronic signs telling you to go to Mich.gov/safety to find information on how to drive safer around trucks.

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    Oh let's see ... I only found one in Manhattan, and a cultural center that many consider as a Mosque. The point I am trying to make is what makes three blocks away from the WTC place so special? It isn't where it happened, it isn't where there was a plane hit the ground like in PA, but what...

    Is it just me?

    But don't you tink' that we are seeing not a recovery but a calm before the storm? How many actually expected a real recovery in 2010 or even 2011?

    Tolerence or Intolerence....

    I'm a bit concern. This looks like a d*mn lot of religious intolerance. If you want to uphold this country, the constitution and our way of life, you have no choice but to uphold all the religions and rights of others, no matter how much you disagree with them. The ignorances of both these...

    Sprinter vs semi

    If I was you I would seriously think about this carefully. Having seen the failure of a sprinter fleet and the failure of a truck fleet, the truck fleet is more apt to make any money for the amount of capital you need to have while the sprinter fleet was hard to obtain and then hard to get rid...

    Is it just me?

    It could be a combination of all these things but OVM, it seems that 2008 is the year before the storm, we did well... most of us that is ... and with what some at FedEx has seen in changes, the 8 to 12% is a great number. Didn't FedEx's number also gain that much too? Thanks for sharing.

    Is the freight damaged?

    I would take it very personal to the point to tell the dispatcher they need to have a professional attitude, especially if the company claims to worry about safety. I would follow up with the company management to explain how you felt about the dispatcher's attitude. There should be a series...

    Is it just me?

    Actually I understand what you are getting at, I have just been dealing with people who say "you got to this way and only this way" and then when I present my version, they get all bent out of shape - not you. It may make sense to explain it in another way, the pre-tax net is the number I...

    We Are Still Looking!

    Get a lawyer who you can trust and who will watch out for you. Don't fall for the trap that it has to be a 'truckn lawyer', any good one that is willing to be frank and take the time to answer your first questions should work.

    60,000 babies of noncitizens get U.S. birthright just in Texas

    Why is it these writers always leave out the SC court cases that DEFINED the amendment? Talk about stoking the fires.

    Founders never wanted to block religious expression

    I also am with Cheri, I can't see that conclusion happening in the next hundred years. Many politicians depend on the different religions and their reach to get elected in the first place. The Soviets did a lot to destroy religion but failed and so did most of the world's leaders in their...

    Is it just me?

    OK, so your up 8 cents a mile. Is that an improvement over your 2008/2007 numbers? What percentage increase is that ending up to be? Are you in sync with the carrier's improved numbers? I have two points, the 2009 numbers mean little, all of the industry hurt, it took a hit and has yet to...

    Founders never wanted to block religious expression

    What is the soviet idea about religion? Is it the same as the Chinese or the Europeans or the Indonesian?
