Raceman... welcome back!!! Please tell me where the edge of the Earth is, so I don't fall off it like you did ;)

instead of beads, they'll throw salt pills and MREs

Don't you DARE use minorities to pull your rickshaw!!!! Plus you hafta give them health insurance in case they stub their toe and get "rickshaw elbow" ;)

Dukes... going to war with Iraq had nothing to do with this. Remember, Iraq wasn't supposed to be producing oil for money (although the UN corruption threw that out the window). But as I remember, in 97-98 when fuel was less than a dollar, Iraq had sanctions on it then. So what do they have to...

Ryan... I'm not disagreeing with you here. I was responding to those who think the government is moving too slowly. For the most part, yes, those who stayed are stewing in their own soup. New Orleans did not have an effective plan in place for this situation, although they knew that it wasn't...

And how do you propose they EXPEDITE hundreds of thousands of people out of there? Where would you put them? They have to plan things out before, because in haste something is bound to happen worse than it is now.

No, the president does not set the prices, and no, OPEC doesn't either. The bigwigs in New York dictates prices. I have to say that they would have less to fear from Bush than someone like Clinton. Washington does, however, does set the policies. And those policies are very friendly to the oil...

The only country in the world who doesn't owe us money is Switzerland. As far as recieving aid from other countries, I'm sure most see it as a sign of weakness. The US would never allow it, and I agree. Just ask yourself what they'd want in return.

I'm not a legal guru or anything, but I'll give you something to think about... If you use those contacts, first question one should ask is where YOU got them from. If they're from your husband, then HE broke the agreement by giving them to you. JMHO

Have you ever driven somewhere and the view made you think you had died and gone to heaven? Let's hear some. Thought about this post while driving my truck home from Washington state. White Pass on US12 through WA is very nice, with Mt. Saint Helens in the distance. But the clincher for me was...

I use sprint wireless. I get online wherever there's a sprint signal. At $80/month, it's definitely not for those who can survive with J or TA services. KW... why haven't you written me back?

The DOT sticker tells the feds that your truck is servicable and up to their specs. If you don't have it, and get pulled over, you lose money. Bobtail insurance covers your vehicle any time you don't have freight on board. Yes, you hafta have that too. As far as your broker goes, he is...

that .27% you're talking about, Leo... is that counting weekends? When you figure weekdays as taking up around 21 days out of the month, that comes to .39%. That maybe a drop in the bucket in your eyes, but could you imagine the GDP droping by that amount? If the stock market dropped by that...

They could be looking at it like this. If you're on your 8 hour break, you can't likely be in an accident. It would be obvious they haven't seen JB or Schnieder try to park at a truckstop :7

I get the point you're making. What I was getting at was that the second cop wouldn't have pulled you over if you would've gotten it fixed. I assume that you were driving a POV and not a commercial vehicle. Still... why give them the excuse?

My opinion is, don't base the potential of a D unit on what you'd make in a van. The two are apples and oranges. As far as you stretching a tractor, read the archives. There are plenty telling of the perils of having one stretched by companies that don't know what they're doing. Having it...

Yep... great for someone who's into expediting as a hobby. Don't know too many of them.

Thanx for the warning... I'll keep my eyes open. If it's anything I don't want is getting taken again. I've heard of Rodriguez. I wish you the best.

If you don't mind me asking, which company did you lease on to? Curious as I'm near Detroit also, and just leased onto PDQ.

The queen :censoredsign: who heads the transportation safety administration, who came up with this BS says backwards and forwards this is a safety issue. Know what? Busdrivers aren't affected by the new rule. If the new rule is supposed to work towards safer highways, what's more safe than having busses...
