    Pirating

    Sry OVM, the captain is the master of his ship, nothing else. He still has to abide by laws that govern his position and that is where the problem is. It doesn't matter what laws or rules the Pirates operate under, there are a lot of complicated issues involved and this is easier solved by...

    THOMAS: Is America Israel's new enemy?

    I seem to think it is America, not just the administration. There has been an ongoing discussion for a long time based on the fact that even through many American Jews support Israel, they vote consistently for the liberals - 77% for Obama in the last election - which means that they clearly...

    Pirating

    Because they fall under different laws and treaties since the 16 century. It would not just make a lot of sense to do so but with the "international" courts and the UN today, it is hard to figure out where the lines are drawn.

    barry Goes Begging For barrycare Votes

    You got to ask yourself this - especially if you voted for CHANGE; What's wrong? The president has a majority of democrats in congress and he can't get this passed? He has to pull out the "this is my presidency on the line" card and beat people over the head with it to get them to vote his...

    Congrats Bolt Express

    It's wishful thinking. How many here have some idea that they can actually haul up to 10k, not have a gross weight of 10k? I have seen 16 foot box truck with a heavy morgan box on a 10k chassis with the owner claiming they can take 4000 lbs while having more crap on board than my truck has.

    Wow!! When Did this happen....

    Ah Mr. president ... Sir... After five years, billions of dollars being dumped into the place ... shouldn't it be time that places like New Orleans and surrounding areas not get any more money and learn how to deal with it themselves? It seems Mr. President that Charleston, which is also on...

    barrycare / College Education Funding

    I don't just see a day when the 'student' has no choice of what profession to enter but limited to education based on tests and performance of the past but it being talked about now. The problem I see is we have our competition who has established their education system not based on the needs...

    barrycare / College Education Funding

    Maybe it is me, but identifying the individual trucks by carrier may defeat the purpose of having an alliance of companies, right?

    Census 2010

    What book? It is three pages. The community follow up questionnaire is a book and separate issue. Chef, they - congress - has the right to do this any which way they want. The problem is it is not a big deal - OH MY the government will know who I am, I can't let that happen - seems to be...

    Census 2010

    I don't know. A lot of people are just frick'n nuts over it which is getting dumb. I heard a number of comments this morning on the radio but these two comments stood out; "I refuse to fill it out, it doesn't matter if Obama created this or not, it isn't right" "I filled it out and put in...

    Vans with boxes

    I'm not offended, just bored. I was tired of him boasting all the work he has been getting, which I know his revenue stream but not what he was hauling. I've talk to the guy for a while, he's pretty good guy expect for this one issue - "I can carry more than you". So I bet him breakfast he...

    Not Happy like many of You

    No that's not why. Here is the deal. I take a load from an agent who has a customer. I get there and it is the same scenario as I posted, instead of one skid, there is three skids and instead of it being 300 lbs, it is 2500 lbs. Oh and it is all hand load, not pallet break down but hand load...
