    Children and "home school"

    I think that's very key. I've never been a big fan of the idea of home schooling, and that's why. I can't imagine interaction with a computer being as good as a class room. Also, it's one thing for a kid to enjoy an occasional ride or vacation for a week or two, then there's the reality of the...

    It's Jan 2 and I thought we would be busy....

    I delivered Friday morning and I'm still here. So, if it helps, you're not the Lone Ranger.

    Panther's physical Question

    Some of the big carriers, J.B. is one , I believe, are doing hair testing in addition to the whizz quiz, because the whizz quiz is so easy to fudge. As you might imagine, it gives them more positives. They should be free to set higher standards in other areas as well.

    Panther's physical Question

    Did you win? I think a company should have every right to set higher standards than the DOT minimum if they choose, similar to a states rights kind of thing.

    Beware! Drivers&Owners

    There is a lesson in routine personal due diligence here. IMHO, everyone should check their personal accounts frequently to be sure that what should be appearing is, and more importantly, for what shouldn't appear. We are in the age of rampant identity theft. This went on for 9 months. Simple...

    Hi Chef! One of the whiners here. I can't speak for the whole group, but for me the problem was a small group turning every thread they got involved in into a "shorts jokes" session. It really did get out of hand. Had it been confined to just this thread it wouldn't have been so bad. Sure is...

    New HOS Rules are out

    It's a license issued by the American Motorcyclist Association. They sanction professional motorcycle racing. The rider documents his/her experience in amateur racing, showing that they've reached the skill level needed to compete professionally. That documentation is signed by AMA...

    New HOS Rules are out

    A lot of cubes are supposed to be stopping and keeping a log, so that's understandable. How can they be sure when they see one go by? Yeah, there's a lot of "reports", a lot of speculation, but when you talk about anything from a bonafide source, where is it? This is the third HOS revision in a...

    New HOS Rules are out

    I disagree. Cargo vans have been hauling freight for quite some time and I've not read or heard of even a hint that the Feds are interested in increasing regulation. I would think that if they were concerned, we'd have seen some indication of it a decade or more ago. What states are doing...

    Expo bike ride?

    No. I've been to Daytona a few times. In '07 I got a run with 2 pick ups, the first in Detroit and the second at the Sturgis Rally. I'd like to do Sturgis on the bike in the next few years.

    I'd do that with a lawyer. I would want every advantage possible to keep this from haunting me for the rest of my life.
