    Mexican trucks........again

    There is a very fine line between fair trade and free trade. Protectionism never works but neither does a free for all. Right now we have placed ourselves in a negative position. A neutral position is where we should be. Opening up to unlimited Mexican trucking could run us deeper into the...

    Jump start cables

    I wonder why and when they started this silly system with wire and shotgun gauges? I mean why would anyone one in their right mind have a SMALLER number for a LARGER size gauge?

    OOIDA has been hammering on this from day one. This is more a case of more the merrier. The squeaky wheel gets the grease and the more of us that hammers those duds in Washington the better. Same goes for the hours of service mess.

    Sorry Wombat ...Ashes: England wrap up 3-1 series win over Australia

    I know about football (soccer) I just seem to remember something about each county in England having an "official" cricket team and that, at least 30 some years ago in Yorkshire that they still required that you be born there to play for that team. That is EVERYTHING that I ever knew about...

    Hey, My youngest son could, if he ever wanted to, be allowed to play cricket for Yorkshire!! I don't know if it still holds true but I do know that back then you had to be born in Yorkshire to play for the "official" Yorkshire team.
