A Team... all of us who have daughters or sisters are saddened by the plight of these misguided souls. Too often, they have been victims of abuse or neglect. Fathers know there is nothing more precious than a daughter. I don't know what can be done to stem this problem. Very sad.

OVM... when I grow up, I aspire to have a Sprinter or a straight truck. I still got twenty years to give to trucking. Maybe Isuzu will import a diesel van.

Ambiguity rules the day?

OVM... their talking down the economy because it suits their purposes.

I had an unpleasant experience with U.S. Customs agents once when returning to USA at Detroit/Windsor. I was deadheading back with no load on board my truck. Agents asked me the usual questions, then instructed me to pull over for inspection of truck. They sent me inside driver's lounge to...

Let he who is wothout stones cast the first sin.

I try watching the news, but it's so depressing. To hear the mainstream media tell it, this economy is held together by chicken wire and duct tape. I can't tell if we're at the beginning, middle or end of this thing. All the doom and gloom is becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. If we don't...

Teri Garr, Barbara Hershey, and a young Angie Dickinson.

Raquel Welch, YES. Barbara Eden, YES. For those with a penchant for Goth, I offer "Elvira" Among today's beauties: Jessica Alba and Shakira.

I actually thought about Agent 99. A worthy nominee.

Greg... Omigod, how could I have forgotten Charlie's Angels. I am really slipping.

Driving overnight thru the Arizona desert can lead a man's thoughts to amazing examples of beauty. Those of us of a certain vintage will remember feminine beauties of the 1970's quite well. As a teenager coming of age in the 70's, I saw an endless parade of female celebrities and entertainers...

Hi Chefdennis... I am a lowly cargo van operator of the solo variety. In my 1st year w/P2 I drove over 72,000 paid miles. Consistently hit over 60k miles every year since then, with three or four weeks off each year. But heres the rub, we are in a different economic climate past 12 months...

Hondaking, in my seven years with Panther, I have never known out-of-service percentages to play a factor in getting load offers. I have been OOS for extended periods of time and it never mattered at all. Got load offers same day I reurned in-service. On-tme percentages and safety...

Cheri... no harm, no foul. I need to be mindful of the delicate nature of some readers.

Cheri...was it something I said? Here, let me ease that chip off your shoulder. Just teasin'....you gotta know all this jousting is in jest. I don't even mind when you twist my words beyond comprehension and ascribe sinister motives. You have left me in stitches!

I notice tallcal has gone silent. Is it his custom to toss a rhetorical hand grenade and hide?

OVM... likewise, if he was Evil,which he is, that does not necessarily make him mentally ill. He could be one or the other or both. The kind of horrendous crime happens much too frequently. Yet, tallcal thought it was fitting it should happen in the South. That, my friend is bigotry.

Mon Cheri... on purely scientific grounds, we as a species have only two biological imperatives: eat and reproduce, solely to ensure survival of the species. If some prefer to participate in unnatural acts, no skin off my nose. They are choosing to remove themselves from the gene pool...

I am saddened whenever a grizzled veteran hangs up his spikes. The accumulated wisdom, intuitive skills and experience are not easily transferred to the youngsters. Despite Herculean efforts by a great teacher, something is always lost in the translation. Sometimes, semantics get in the way...
