RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening "I think the real quote was" borders on moronic" Rough statement." such is life, we are all adults here, right?

It was all that pouring your brains out over charts, graphs, financial calculations to make those long hard calculated business decisions that has finally paid off! NOT! It is luck,.... see ....:+

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Ateam makes a post and his distractors critize him and then someone defends his right to post and then that person gets hit on. Some of those who constantly jump on Phil should grow up. OVM, Man I don't beat up on him just to do so, I try to...

er... 2 centuries ago there was no kansas or nebraska..... I think that we just purchased that plot of land 204 years ago but the act you mentioned is like in 1854 and was not the worst piece of legislation ever passed. About McCain, here is a guy who still has not sent me an application for...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening Now now, It don't matter, see the thing is we are in our own world anyway with our own carrier. If they can't provide us good loads that fit our business model, then it is a recession to that person only. This is very micro-economics working...

No Moot, I was trying to say if it wasn't for you, we would be in a mundane world stuck forever in a hapless cycle of something... or another.... in sort of the likes of the movie Brazil.

Actually I agree with you on the greed issue, outside of the dividends issue (the stockholders are the people who bet on the success and they should get paid). Working for a company that has a 34% profit margin, the greed was so horrible that when they cut out the $250k bonuses for the directors...

I just read this, Sexual misconduct plagues US schools http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071020/ap_on_re_us/teacher_sex_abuse and wonder after 40 years of teaching and being accused of sexual abusing kids, why even after losing his license, does these teachers allowed to keep their pension? I...

If you don't mind me asking, in your opinion which would be the better truck for this accomplishment?

So long sad times Go long bad times We are rid of you at last Howdy gay times Cloudy gray times You are now a thing of the past Happy days are here again The skies above are clear again So let's sing a song of cheer again Happy days are here again Altogether shout it now There's no one Who...

RE: An Economic and Trucking Slowdown is Happening "Are you trying to scare the newbies out of this business so your freight will pick up or are you just running that slow and you have nothing better to do with your time, except quote what other's are saying?" you got to ask?

Duh!?! Terry it is one of those days :+

Cheri, Don't worry about it. I was offended at everything this morning and still offended over my lunch. Chaney of course. x( actually it is a good idea because it would take a while to impeach Bush and then it would leave Chaney 6 months fighting congress over a lot of different things...

Cheri, The problem is what do you legalize and what remains illegal? I mean ok Cannabis is one thing but meth or crack? if you legalize one, you will have a lot of people screaming about what they want to use to the point they will claim it is their right and it will end up with a lot more...

Brownie What is your GVW?

Thanks Phil, but I would not even worry about it. It covers more than corporations because they are going after lost business tax, I would think any business form from DBA to C corp would be covered under their laws. From my point of view and checking my fuel tax logs, I have only covered...

Cheri, The swiss tried this several times and it has turned out to be a real disaster. The Swiss have pretty much gave up on the idea and moved toward forcing some into rehab and strict control after rehab secretly. Much of the increase in drug use with the swiss has been partly attributed to...
