    Where do they come up with these rubes ......

    That's okay, Obama thinks that there are 57 states in THIS country and he got elected. It is very unlikely that ANY president can name the name of the chief executive of every country on the face of the earth. OUR president should, at the very least, know how many states there are. Any bets...

    Tire pressure gauges

    It was not an accuracy problem. The thing did not work at all. It would just let air out of the tire, and the "stick" did not extend. Got one at the truck stop. WAY too much money but I needed it that day. There would not have been a chance to air up the tires before today's run otherwise. There...

    Obama, things are setting up sweet for hie re-election

    I don't know, most likely from one of those stupid make work project that Obama loves so much. Want to bet that the money came out of Federal highway funds?

    Obama, things are setting up sweet for hie re-election

    HOS. The ones we are working under now make our operation MORE dangerous, the new ones will be worse. The Stupidity over no phone at all. The increased diversion of fuel tax funds to bike trails etc. Basically, everything that comes out of Lahood's (Obama's) mouth. Like U.S. drivers having to...

    A sweet tip

    Best we ever did was on a load for Hickory Farms. We got some "sale stuff" to a store that did not receive their order when required. They made us up a really nice meat/cheese and cracker plate for arriving 3 hours early, got the stuff there BEFORE they opened.

    Boehner, Cantor Attack Trucking HOS Rewrite

    Sleep needs and their relationship to safety are individual. Some may do better on the 10 hour rule, others on a 5 and 5. NO law/regulation takes that into account. The 5 and 5 was, without a doubt, safer for OUR operation. No own can "prove" this, there are just far too many variables. As many...

    So was the money we spent in Libya worth it?

    The so called "Cold War" never ended. It just entered a different phase. You can bet your boots that they are going to turn on us. That has LONG been the goal. They are getting closer every day. I had hoped that I would not live to see it, I am now worried that I might.

    So was the money we spent in Libya worth it?

    There are mass graves all over the area, these are just fresh ones. It will likely increase over the years. We had ZERO business there.

    Talladega race anyone ?

    I am in NO way opposed to flowing beer!! It was just a few of the less than savory bunch that tends to put a bad light on the entire bunch!

    Talladega race anyone ?

    LOL!! I was able to sleep, when it was not my turn to fire, on the rifle ranges in basic training. I have never been to a race other than Flat Rock Speedway when I was a kid and the Detroit Drag way once, when it was still there. I would likely enjoy the "people watching". I used to "hate"...

    So was the money we spent in Libya worth it?

    I don't know how reliable this human rights group is but this kind of action, assuming it is true, is EXACTLY what I expect from those who took over Libya. They may end up far MORE brutal than Gadhafi ever was. Rights group finds mass grave in Gadhafi hometown TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) —...

    So was the money we spent in Libya worth it?

    When all comes out in the wash we, and the Libyan people, are somewhat likely to end up with much worse that what was there.

    Talladega race anyone ?

    Moose is GOOD people. I have met up with him a couple of times. Not had the pleasure of meeting you yet. I don't think I would want too there. Pay money to be put to sleep? NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, puts me to sleep faster than NASCAR. As in the race starts, 5 minutes, and the "Z" monster...

    Debating on selling my house

    I understand the position. I just feel that there are far too many variables in this business to risk a home. All it takes is one 4 wheeler or a deer and the truck AND house, are gone.
