Very good point, Terry: we should always remember that we may be under observation anytime, anywhere, by anyone, and behave accordingly. Thanks for the reminder.

Location: home. Status: On the board, and bored!

RE: Driving too fast for conditions While our first thoughts are for the injured and those who lost their lives in the accident, I would argue that the matter of blame, in a legal sense, is an appropriate subject, on a forum for drivers. I believe we all know that "there, but for the grace of...

Ok, here's my idea: everyone needs to get a cellphone with camera, and practice the quickdraw snapping of photos - we can cause these pigs to think twice before they risk getting caught on camera, with prints to their carrier. We can be a force for good in the world - think of it!:7 PS It's...

If you go, DO NOT hold your hand up in the air, in the vicinity of seagulls, unless you're holding food for them, lol. My then- 4 yr old daughter noticed birds flocking around people holding their hands overhead, so she held hers up - we nearly got divebombed to death by gulls, angry cause our...

There's lots worse places to stay awhile - I used to love walking down to the water's edge to see the dolphins swim through the channel. But the beach was a horror: looked like all the trash from the oil rigs washed up in Texas...I really shouldn't say that though - some of them were my friends...

Antdub, please clarify: are you looking for feedback on both?

How educated you are has nothing to do with it. Capitalizing the first word of a sentence, and putting a period at the end to indicate where the sentences begin and end, is taught in first grade. It's about common courtesy - making what you write clear enough that the reader isn't forced to...

Guys: this is getting out of control here. Please take a deep breath, or a chill pill, whatever, and remember that we're just debating viewpoints here, and we can do that like grownups, with civility, no? Play nice, now, or shut up, ok? Don't make me call out the flying monkeys...

Fish, preciate the info, but please don't ever use the word 'womanual' again, lol - that's just ludicrous! We already know that anything a man can do, etc. Well ok, with maybe one or two exceptions.:P

Could you prevent the eager forklift drivers from entering your truck before you're ready for them, by putting a load lock across the opening, when the truck is empty? I'm pretty sure they wouldn't get off the forklift to remove it, but will wait for you to do it, lol.

The newspaper photos show one of the worst wrecks I've ever seen - a sobering reminder of what can happen in a heartbeat on the highway...Please, everyone: stay safe out there! I hope to hear that the Panther driver is ok, and my heart is very sad for those who aren't.

I've never used it, but I have logged quite a bit on paper, and one reason I'd switch to paperless: being lefthanded makes no difference. I like that quite a lot. ;)

Why? You know why, Linder - because some people are just disgusting pigs! Like Leo pointed out, it doesn't have to do with color, gender, occupation, political affiliation, sexual preference, geographical upbringing, or parenting, either - there are just BAD people out there. I hope you called...

Speaking strictly for myself, if I feel the weather is unsafe to keep moving through, I will inform dispatch of the fact - if they disagree, well, I don't know what would happen, as it's never happened yet. I feel it's my life on the line, and I'm not risking it for freight. I will get it there...

Marvin: that whole belligerant rant is something you should have sent to whomever it's aimed at, not posted on this thread. Comments like "You OOP think you're so special" are not only untrue, but also pretty childish - it says more about you than the people you're insulting.

This is just hearsay, but I've heard that the bus companies, at least Trailways & Greyhound, agree to pay any speeding tickets without protest, so their buses don't get pulled over.

That wasn't being treated fair, it was above & beyond! Thanks for letting us know that there are some great people out there, it helps on the days when we don't run into them. ;)
