    the changing climate and interstate travel

    Road salt alone starts to become ineffective at around 20F. Much below that and you have to "sweeten" it with other chemicals. Direct sunlight and friction from tires can help it as well. Break out the shovels, no need to have people sitting on their duffs collecting FREE money. They can...

    Now in TX. Delivered a load here at 0500 yesterday. I cannot believe this, we ran TWO REAL expedite loads this week! How odd. I almost forgot what they were like. Ran 5 loads last week, all short but they made for a better than average week. Heading for AR on Monday.

    New battle opens on US carbon emissions

    Never happen Greg, not as long as there are ReBumLiCans and Dumb-O-Crats in our government. The SC has become a institution to assist the legislative and executive branches in consolidating their power over the People. Our government seeks to rule and control. Nothing more.

    Egypt's Mubarak to step down

    NBC? Get it wrong? Say it ain't so!! :eek: A FINE example of how THAT particular entertainment group "reports" the "news". We don't hear too much about the "bias" and "fear mongering" put out by NBC, CBS and ABC from the media bash bunch in here. Funny how they tend to only pick on one...

    Obama's traitorous act

    Greg, I know a thing or two about intell, treaty monitoring and Soviet systems. Yeah, I know what you are saying. Just don't agree all that much. As to that book, there is a Russian term that describes it quite well. I don't think the "site censor software" will let it through, but here it goes...

    We WENT to Olive Branch first. NO parking spot to be found. Could barely move through the lot. People had already "invented" spots that greatly restricted the flow. We won't leave the truck tonight. Our pick up is a mile from here in the morning.

    Obama's traitorous act

    No, never seen the movie. Not into "Nuke Fiction" Spent far too much time in "nuke reality". Started the book, lost interest. Red October had some "real stuff" in it, none of his other stuff I read did. Other than a few people on the ground the treaty will make little difference on the...

    Obama's traitorous act

    But why do we NEED it? I don't get the NEED part. What is the cost to us in dollars? We can't afford to keep paying the Russians to disarm/modernize, the taxpayers here are being ripped off. Nothing new.

    WW2 remains found

    One of my second cousins is one of those 74,000. He was a waist gunner on a B29. They were lost over Africa, the plane or the crew never found.

    Obama's traitorous act

    "The third and most important thing is the New Start treaty is needed, not a give away, or something that damages the country but it is needed for a lot of reasons. It isn't the best treaty but what one is because they are a compromise of ideals and needs. " Needed? Why? I believe it WAS a...

    FedEx Custom Critical goes Red

    The cost is a big concern. We were going to buy new shirts, not now. We will look a bit ragged till the new ones come out. I hesitate on buying new signs if we have to pay for them. As to the rest, time will tell. I get worried when things like this happen. Sounds like "bean counters" at...

    It gets old

    All of the Clink/reefer cables go in underneath the sleeper on the drivers side. Yes, underbelly, not my first choice but you get what you can get when buying used or repos. The final cost, $304 bucks. There were two broken/rotted wires. One on the left tail light harness the other on one...

    Your GPS has been cancelled by the FCC

    That did not cause a loss of TV or radio access. It just changed the broadcast format. I am not understanding what Greg meant.
