    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    Now for some reason I can imagine Lum or Abner saying all of that, but either way it makes too much sense.

    I'm curious, but isn't panther actually routing this for you?

    What a "See Through" State of the Union

    No he got it right, we are fighting two wars - one on the domestic front for health care and one in the middle east. I expected to see headlines about job creation, about education and about other great things our messiah was supposed to talk about - the hype was on those key points. But...

    CIA Man Retracts Claim on Waterboarding

    The guy in the CIA took an oath to up hold the constitution, which to many means keeping his mouth shut in order not to damage this country. Torture or not, his obligation is to do a job that may be nasty and not talk about it. Like others who have set themselves up to write books where they...

    How do you trust someone who takes an oath and breaks it?

    Too Funny!!

    T. Roosevelt, Taft, Wilson, Harding and Hoover were really the last. Hoover and Wilson wrote a lot beside speeches, both were published a lot. Oh Roosevelt was also an "author" of many books and beleive it or not he didn't have a ghost writers. In the later part of the century, ah ... maybe...

    ACORN "Pimp" Arrested at Landrieu Office

    I agree what a frikn' moron. He claims to be a journalist but you know even most journalist have some sort of standards to get the proper ID to sneak into places they shouldn't be.

    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    I understand what you are getting at but reality seems to be a bit different from my point of view. If we have say 11,000 trucks and 6000 vans in this niche market we call expediting, and a large percentage of these people are independent, then it makes no sense how "we" can band together to...

    Help! Powerpac APU problem

    Well I thought about this and if they can't give you the number from ICT then here is another thought; have them look up when they purchased it and call Powerpac and tell them to look up their sales receipts to see what they shipped to them. Chances are they may have bought three units at a time...

    Help! Powerpac APU problem

    Well I would call them every hour to get an answer, I would ask to talk to the guy/gal in charge of the company to see what they can do about it. It should be a 15 minute time between you asking the question and getting an answer unless their record keeping is really p*ss poor. I would suggest...

    Help! Powerpac APU problem

    Don't mean to harsh but it is very hard to believe that there is no serial number or record of the purchase. I have to ask; Did you have the unit installed yourself? If so then call the vendor who installed it and ask them. If not, did you buy it pre-installed on the truck? If so, go...

    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    But Guido, it is nice to have the power but a lot don't. For example, you are part of that company that sends out notices for a load all at once (not trying to beat them up but they make a near perfect example). You don't have much of a choice in how you get loads, the system is setup to make...

    Life sure is getting silly....

    The problem isn't censorship, it is the problem with the schools not focusing on teaching and worrying about stupid and trivial things. But banning books has been done for decades in schools, I have (had? don't know where it is) a copy of the Detroit public school board minutes from 1914 and it...

    EnGINE

    How many of you drain your tanks on a regular basis to clean them out? I never heard of fuel lines collapsing, I hear the filter on the tank doing that due to rust and garbage but not lines.

    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    Thank you Dave! But that's something many don't get. The non-traditional way may not be there for much of the audience, a few companies will not give them latitude to think outside that box and they end up with the average $1.11 +FSC in the end. Making a move may not be possible because other...

    Life sure is getting silly....

    I agree it isn't and shouldn't be construed as an attack on the constitution BUT ... What has been happening in the schools is somewhat along the lines of stifling free speech of one party while allowing others to get away with offending others. While many on the left and the ACLU has been...

    Disaster Overload

    Well seeing the UN in action first hand I expected something like this to happen sooner - there was a problem with food distribution in the city and a riot was breaking out, the UN used pepper gas to disperse the crowds. I saw this happen once before where the UN came in with water hoses and...

    Expediters - Don't get scammed!

    Thanks Jason and Lawrence. I'm not nitpicking but how do I get a hold of the Secret Service office in Chicago?

    Is it the ECONOMY? Or are we to blame for the low rates?

    "Is it the economy or is it the company?" may be a better question. I mean while we are looking at these low offers as an industry wide problem, with a company like FedEx, there is some internal competition going on. The same goes for another company, they have other divisions and in some ways...

    Disaster Overload

    Is it me or did I just miss the point entirely. The Haitian people are going to rebuild the parts of their country that were destroyed, the estimated cost will be $3B over a 10 year period - most of the funds seem to be committed from countries who are willing to help. This includes new...
