    Report: What does Obama's global popularity bring the US?

    But the world needs the vision, idealism, and strong leadership that America brings to international affairs. This can be done and must be done. But we have that - Hillary - who has vision, idealism and is a great strong leader on the world stage who brings strength to America with...

    TA fuel sucks?

    Intentionally? Never worked around a refinery Phil? Nothing seems to be done without an intent. The science is not flexible but the handling is but again fuel doesn't "go bad". The additives do, the fuel can get contaminated but not "go bad". A lot of blending facilities will blend on...

    Deer Are Pests

    I agree, get rid of those bugs, bring back DDT and let's get to work. Layout, what would a deer be doing on I 96, between Beech Daly and Inkster? A week before I left, there was one still sitting dead on the road. Wayne county didn't clean it, but again they don't pickup the dead dogs that...

    The Individual Mandate is Not a Tax, no wait it is a Tax....

    I say YES let it happen, let the courts be forced not to hear cases on health care, let the people figure out what happened to their money and their health care and let them figure out how to vote to change things. When he campaigned on change, he didn't say when so it may be after people get...

    Which formds do I need for my drivers

    Form 1099 misc. Box 7 - non employee compensation for anything over $600. All I do is record it as an expense, fill it out, keep a copy and then send it to the driver. How's it going? Independent life going well?

    Less Than a Buck to laredo

    Huh? OK I see.... I understand why you can say that. What's the use of the exclusive contract if you are going to be treated as a day laborer and have to jump at a load? Who cares about your "order" you end up at, when that is negated by broadcasting loads and having a bidding war within...

    Flat Bed Rules?

    I see that all the time. Speaking of flatbeds, I noticed UPS freight has a few here in the south running.

    Deer Guards

    As turtle mentioned, have you priced them? They should be a quarter of the price they are now. Forward looking Infrared only works as well as the driver can multitask. I had a chance to try one for a few weeks and it worked only so well, it did give me a heads up on a cat and a few coyot's...

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    Who did you bring it to? I hope they called to tell you this. One place bumped me three times in on day but never called, I was ****ed when I arrived to pick up the truck and it wasn't even touched.

    Less Than a Buck to laredo

    I'm wondering if this is the shape of things to come. Maybe this goes back to my comment about interdepartmental billing. Between the "race for the cash" dispatching and lowering of rates, maybe FedEx is moving toward a flat rate?!?

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    I agree. It only seems like they are a major league team but in fact they play like they are varsity.

    Oil price's this will blow your mind

    Well one of the biggest lies that we have to face is this; "We need to cut our dependence of foreign oil" See the oil system doesn't work as people think. We buy and sell oil in the international market, there is no US market where we can only depend on US based black gold. When the oil...

    Canada They have an agreement.

    I don't know, it seemed that they traveled from the west to the east for some reason. I think that there was the 'ice' bridge that brought people here and then China seems to be the first to visit, followed by the Vikings. Somewhere there was something about the Celts but who knows.

    June 2010 Locations

    Back to my favorite truck stop. Surrounded by a FedEx and someone else's box vans I forget. So far racked up 1200 miles since Wednesday, made 17 deliveries to places that can't figure out why they are getting what I dropped off, hit a pigeon, a chicken or maybe two (can't tell because it was a...

    And why is this news? Also how are they first nations when the Chinese were here first? :D

    Report: What does Obama's global popularity bring the US?

    Turkey from what I am reading doesn't seem to like our messiah, and both the people and the government holds him in contempt. As one said, " ... the people have become so enthralled with Obama that he seems to be a replacement for Jesus" He is telling the EU members how to run their country -...

    Help with the Expediters Hall of Fame Website

    Actually Dave, Get Phil to run it. I'm not being sarcastic but serious. He can do a good job with it. As for FedEx stopping contractor of the year, there is another side of that story which isn't talked about. It may seem odd but they always seemed to weigh in on the "pride of the fleet" with...
