LOSer: what "slogans"? I don't recall a single one in DougT's posts - where are they?

Aint skeered! O wait - are you bringing Juju? Cos I wouldn't mess with her, lol :D

Wonderful post, Chef! :D

Agree with Yesteryear: I'm an expediter who drives a truck. That doesn't have an automatic transmission or power seat - but I too draw the line at AC, cos leaving the window down really snarls my hair, lol. ;)

Volume was a problem for me with the Nuvi, as I listen to audiobooks through mine. On Turtle's advice, I got an FM transmitter to route it through the radio, but it required finding unused FM channels - preferably 3 consecutive, which I couldn't find. The wireless model requires an output jack...

Uh, Linder - you meant Firefox, right? :D There is a series of wonderful books called Foxfire, about how things were done [like building homes, providing food, making candles, shoes, etc] in the 'old days' in Appalachia, but I'm thinking that's not what you're referring to here. Both are excellent.

Danny: in 3 years driving a s/t, it has never been so full there wasn't room for a bike.

SusieQ's beloved dog Jodie died yesterday, too. It was a peaceful death, blessedly, because Jodie was worth at least as much as most humans, and loved a lot more than many.

The death of Princess Diana was a graphic demonstration of the insanity that ensues when paparrazzi chase photos - the helichopper was the best move, IMO. What saddens me, though, is how little thought is given to MJ's children. No doubt they've always been shielded from most of the horrible...

The biggest advantage to wasp spray is that no LEO can say it's actually a weapon, rather than what it is - there's a legitimate need for it. Also, most cans have a trumpet in front of the nozzle, which reassures me that if I ever need to spray it at an attacker, I won't point it at myself in my...

If Amazon shipments to home are not a good option, better stick with chains like Radio Shack, Best Buy etc. Of those two, Radio Shack is far better, IMO, as far as returns [if you pay with a credit/debit card]. Best Buy won't allow you to determine that the product is in fact correct, unless...

I don't see the need for both and with a 17" screen how can you go wrong? In the time it takes to turn your head to the point where the windshield isn't even in your peripheral vision, and allow your eyes and brain to refocus on the laptop screen, obtain the info needed, then repeat the...

I totally feel for ya, Tim - the hassles of dealing with drop & hook on equipment that no one feels any need to take care of is a large part of why I won't drive t/t again. It was a tremendous problem for me, being 5'3" and female, and it's a problem the carriers just ignore, sadly. I hope you...

If memory serves, that's a misconception that Turtle posted the facts on awhile back, correct? I could find the post, but would rather get back to Mafia Wars, lol - it's very therapeutic! :D

hate the strt!!:p Looks like somebody hates the strt: I just turned down an offer to Tulsa [from near Cincinnati] for 90 cpm :mad: Somebody needs a reality check, I'm thinkin.

Ahhh - so THAT'S what those noises I heard from inside your van were all about......I thought it was your stomach grumbling for lunch! :p

Thanks to Jr for posting the link to a pretty cool site. :)

Turtle, when did you add a bolt to your van? It wasn't there last week....

Your biggest problem will be with the insurance companies that will refuse to cover you. Check the 'driver wanted' ads here on EO's classified area, and reply to as many as seem a possibility [keeping in mind that most want teams] and see what happens - what have you got to lose?
