    Another Trucker wins Powerball !!

    "Greg, Shame on you for being such a downer! Be happy for the man. If he should squander the money away, so be it, it is his to spend any way he wishes. Please don't feel sorry for me, if I should win, I know I wouldn't feel sorry for you! " Are12, But I do feel sorry for anyone who wins and...

    HOS Changes still on hold

    kangar0085 I would love to agree with you but truthfully after running my truck for 10 hours, I want to rest. A van is a little different than a truck but again a lot of people don't get the sleep thing anyway. The 34 hour reset is also a needed thing, well maybe not 34 hours, maybe 24 hours...

    Question on Personal/buisiness Laptop Computers ?

    RE: Question on Personal/buisiness Laptop Computer Just FYI, sometimes HP will run 'reconditioned' laptop sales - sometimes more than half off retail. These are not all recons but overruns from company orders that have been canceled by distributors. I think this takes place every 6 months and...

    Question on Personal/buisiness Laptop Computers ?

    RE: Question on Personal/buisiness Laptop Computer Turtle, you got me beat there. beside the scratches and the gouges, my hinges on the laptop are broken so the screen won't stay up - cheap diecast parts that should be wirewound for strength. I went rounds with HP trying to get the...

    Whites turning Gray!

    " Fels Neptha - I thought the only use for that was for poison ivy" Actually I was told by some Mexican when I was in San Diego to use this to cut down on the itching I had due to the bed bugs I no longer have and it worked great. I discovered the great cleaning qualities is also has, like my...

    Another Trucker wins Powerball !!

    I honestly feel sorry for the people who win. Many of them don't know how to handle the 'fame and fortune'. What I find rather sad is he didn't win $29M because if he did, he would get $29M but instead he won half of that and the results are $9M after all the taxes - maybe the FairTax would...

    Why More Truck Drivers Are Going To Die

    I find the whole article finger pointing, like I said in the 9/11 post where is the accoutablity at the state level where the inspections and repairs happen? I don't see the people recalling the governor so it must not be that important to them. It is sad that no one is saying that the...

    I agree with this but you know that the MEA will get involved and mess things up.

    WHERE WERE YOU 9-11-2001 ????

    I am going to apologize for this right up front, so there I am sorry. I said that we forgotten what 9/11 was all about, that holds true and Phil proved my point. Many ask a legitimate question Like Phil’s but what irks me is what does New Orleans have to do with the problem we have with...

    Recession or Depression?

    I sort of sympathize with you but on the other hand I am put off by the most recent rejections from the three major universities in the state while being accepted by Oxford. I even have a recommendation from a department chair and they didn't get me enough 'points' to get in. What I am told that...

    DIVERSITY

    Rich, The problem goes way far beyond the auto companies. It goes way beyond the facts of the auto worker being the blame for everything. Yes the state can't control things within a corporation but it can promote the state to attract new business and help those other than welfare recipients to...

    DIVERSITY

    Well, Anne I find your point rather truthful (hurtful and really humorous all at the same time) in the situation we are in, a failing state with no leadership at all - either in the house or in the governors mansion. We are the joke of the country and even N.O. has had more success with...

    DIVERSITY

    "The Canadian doctor, not to be outdone, interjected, "You guys are way behind. We took a woman with no brains, sent her to Michigan where she became Governor, and now half the state is out looking for work." Anne, ah... never mind... the truth hurts.....

    You are kidding me, aren’t you?

    I was reading about the Gridiron Greats Assistance Fund and got to ask, are they joking? They have gone in front of congress (actually U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation) to ask to look into the NFL’s retirement plan and compensation package for players who are...

    Question on Personal/buisiness Laptop Computers ?

    RE: Question on Personal/buisiness Laptop Computer I have an HP dv6000 that is beaten up beyond belief - I am not a gentle laptop owner. I also have the AT&T air card - Sierra Aircard 875. I should write a review on it but anyway it is ok. I have problems with XP needed to be rebooted at...

    OK where are you?

    I am sort of really angry tonight. For some ungodly reason representative Dennis Kucinich seems to have been another democrat to trash the troops and the US by visiting a country who openly supports terrorism and openly saying that the war was based on lies and deceit. On the heels of the...

    is cdl required

    No, but I met someone who drives a yellow box and his van is a testament to the lack of a safety department at his carrier - which will go unmentioned.

    Directional signals and A/C

    "So, if I turn it off for a while and open my windows so that I don't bake, I can turn it back on after 5 minutes or so and get 15 minutes of A/C before the fan :censoredsign:s the bed again!!!! I just hate it!!!!" Chet, 1) I had this problem after a few weeks in the truck and it was simply the switch...
