When ever I hear that term used in a deflection, I know the person saying it is clueless about taxes and how the economy works. I wish they would learn to read and absorb information about the subject instead of regurgitating the same old garbage that others say.

WARNING really long post But a dictator is a dictator, right? And a repressive regime is a repressive regime, right? If you have no right to speak or no right to basic liberties, what is that? Is it really freedom or repression? That’s an interesting...

ah, what do you think the head of CARB is suggesting? They said the problem is the engine in the APU, the diesel engines don't use electronics and can't be setup for higher emission standards. The key to this is the diesel part. So they suggested a gas generator instead.... I think a good...

I think the party would have been better off to boot McCain to the curb. I am surprised no one gets the gay marriage thing - atheists will agree there is no God, marriage between a man and woman is sanctioned by God hence no God, no exclusivity - marriage can now be between a man and women, a...

The more important question is why did they push the HHS secretary's approval to today and stopped all debate in the senate? It is not like she can hit the ground running, she has to finish her business in Kansas and then it will take her at least a month to be brought up to speed on all the...

You know after chasing my cats around for a while, it dawned on me that if McLean was a trooper, he would have known the difference of allegedly and admitting guilt and what maritime issues caused their $25k fine. By the way, does this mean that because FedEx lost a major court case, they are...

I will make this offer to anyone. If you are wanting to rid yourself of the nightmare Fill In the Blank APU, I will take it. Of course I have nothing to give but.....:p

$100 million is nothing, he is asking for $1.8 billion just to tackle the pig flu. The other thing he said he is going to do is to go through the budget and cut out the excessive spending. Well guess what? He can't - he doesn't have the power to do that. Did you know our interest on our debt...

Was there a line?

Duh.... Air Expedite loads come to mind, you do not get a percentage of a lot of the AE loads, you get a percentage of an inter-company rate. I know of one shipment that was a $14,000 cost to the shipper. To transport the container from the air plane to the warehouse was $6000 billed to the...

OK, I guess.... what is wrong with naming the company and the truck, it is something that is threatening with some, "you wont get runs from us if you name us - so don't"? I am asking to find out more about why it didn't happen so others can learn, not to bash you.

Thank God... I couldn't watch a thing tonight, even the BBC and Martha Stewart channel had Obama on but Fox pulled through. I like reading the WH press release on it, it is an easy read and summarizes the high points.

Piper, You know I am getting too old, the clutch fork shaft should be looked at too, that was what I think I was trying to get at with the re-bushing thing. I don't even know if these lube engineers at these places hit them with grease. The pilot bearing and even the flywheel surfacing is a...

Agfter reading all of this, and knowing the OECD, the problem is that you are looking at numbers with a exclusion of culture. Our culture is different from that or Europe and Asia, I said this before. The difference in how we perceive business and how we approach our problems is not the same...

Mr. Buddha, I am curious; maybe I am mistaken about repressive regimes (a.k.a. dictatorships) but are they not all the same? I mean Hugo baby there is the toast of the idiots of Hollywood and actually he is a lot like Pinochet and Juan Perón in both substance and repression, so please...

2 doesn't work a lot of the time, but it does work with some phones and in some areas, from the AT&T guys, it has to do with the 3G stuff. 3 I just tried it with two phones and it didn't work. I don't think there is a reserve on these batteries per se, the battery management system in the...

Because with 35 feet of space being used in a 53 foot trailer, you have room to add more (18 feet to be exact) and that little amount adds up. I can't figure out why everyone is still thinking inside a box.

Ok so a vp of a company who actually has nothing to do with trucking other than providing the tools has come out and said the American Trucker is an extinct animal and Mexican truckers can fill the gap - oh and that EOBRs will put a crimp in the Owner/Operators type due to the fact that they are...

I have the same exact noise at the same speed but it is not a trans input shaft bearing, it is my clutch throwout bearing. I was told if I were to not just replace the bearing but also re-bush the clutch shaft (or re-bush and replace the shaft if both are bad) and also use quality parts for a...

Sorry to see you go but I am wondering; What company have you been with and what kind of truck do you have?
