ABBA then and now. ABBA celebrated the 50th anniversary of their founding by an impromptu performance onstage together for the first time in 30 years.

Need a lot of money going in to do that. Otherwise, when you turn, you're burning up any profit you made getting there. I know one vanner who recently (last week) took a load from Dayton to Laredo for about 75 cents. 1400 miles, paid him $1000 even. Then he delivered and immediately headed to...

The only companies worth driving for are the ones that are hard to get on with. If the barrier for entry is low, so is the reward.

Yeah, not really advisable. You want to be at least as far back as to see the side mirrors of the vehicle in front of you. You see drafting sometimes, mainly out west, where 3 or more trucks are drafting each other. Drafting spreads out the resistance between all of the vehicles and makes it...

Excellent video. Really good. Watch it.

For every load that comes out of Laredo, 10 goes in. When you go to Laredo, it needs to be because you're looking to sit for a mini vacation.

That's also why parallel train tracks are as far apart as they are. For slow moving trains, though towns and in rail yards, 13 feet is normal. For curves and higher speed trains it's 15 feet. For high speed trains the distance between the center of each track needs to be 20 feet. Otherwise the...

Sitting in Ft Pierce. Was gonna go ahead and head up to the Carolinas or Atlanta or something, but Ft Pierce is juuuuust a tad south of where Tropical Storm Colin is passing. So, I think I'm good right here for another day. A Tropical Depression is like a bad thunderstorm, with circular...

I can imagine. After years of seeing the Grand Canyon in pictures, TV and movies, the real-deal blew me away. No picture will ever do it justice.

No, it's a complete fabrication, derived and evolved from at least 2003 when the waggish diatribe against the cost of nursing home care had its writer swearing to check into a Holiday Inn when the grey hairs became too many. By 2004, some of the numbered items now found in the "cruise ship" tale...

The story behind "The Photo" is, at least I think, a fascinating one. If you watch film of the fight you'll see that Ali's arm was in that position for just a split second. It happens just a smidge, in a blur, just at the 7:23 mark in the YouTube video above. Blink and you'll miss it. But that...

It's pretty bad. I think Michigan roads are the worst, because the roads I mostly drive on in Michigan are really bad. But overall, Michigan isn't nearly as bad as you'd think. It's just that where they are bad, they're really, really bad. Attached is a PDF file of all of the states, sorted...

That statement implies someone, or multiple someones, likely non-liberals, got offended by something that you posted, which resulted in you losing your Soapbox posting privileges. And since I'm the one that removed your Soapbox posting privileges, it more specifically implies that I personally...

Berry Dodge, which is now Toliver Dodge, is also a good resource. They are this link, despite the name... Genuine Sprinter Parts - SprinterParts.net Sometimes they're more expensive than, say Europarts, sometimes they're cheaper. But it's a great resource if for nothing else to find out the...

Deplanned, relieved of your plan. I'm glad they don't do that after you deliver.
