What Moot said. ;) I noted that physically unable to perform [or something of that nature, like severe mental retardation, is crazy, is Jeffrey Dahmer, etc., but figured just the catch-all "physically unable to perform" would suffice) and it got shot down with people who fall outside of the...

Not if you're Jewish, for several reasons. I'm pretty darn sure too. Said Custer.

Can count to cheeseburger. Hopes to be a SEAL in the Air Force. Or just a seal.

I have not. The timing of this discussion yesterday was such that it would have meant emailing him after 5PM on Friday, which wouldn't yield an answer until Monday, and since John already said he'd get with Ops on Monday for clarification, it made little sense to email him about it. Seriously...

The only deferments would be for physically unable to perform. I've long believed that everyone should be required to give 2 years of service to their country in some form or another. I think it should start within one year of graduating high school, or turning 18, or immediately upon leaving...

I don't care whether my hours are reset or not. I really don't. I'm fully aware that getting me loaded is in the best interest of Load One. All I'm asking for is clarification to a QC message that made little sense unless you were the one who sent it. I learned a long time ago that if there's...

Uhm, no. What is it, exactly, that you think I'm all bent out of shape about? You think I'm mad because my hours won't be reset if I turn down a low paying load? Is that what you think? My paragraphs are not about a penny, they are about getting a plain English straightforward answer to some...

Thank you. Is that loaded miles or all miles? Mileage limits? What mileage limits? We have mileage limits now, too? Wait. What? The QC message about the threshold didn't mention mileage limits at all. Does this mean the hours reset threshold becomes null and void if the miles are above or below...

I completely missed it. I still don't know if the threshold for not having your hours reset is .60/1.05 and lower, or if it is actually .59/1.04 and lower. It at least seems clear enough that if I, in a Sprinter, turn down a load at 61 cents that my hours will definitely be reset. And it seems...

After watching this video, you'll never be able to watch Ted Cruz again the same way again. If you're a fan of Cruz don't watch it, because you can never unsee it.

Democracy, free speech, the Constitution in general, mean nothing to these kids. It's all about their feelings and sensitivities. They haven't matured mentally beyond that of adolescence. And it's why these kids and people like them are drawn to Bernie and socialism, because socialism is not...

Yeah, 401 is Windsor to London, 402 is Sarnia to London. I would get those (and 403) confused sometimes. Main thing was to stay off 407. That I could remember. :D

I dunno. There are hardly ever any cops on it between Windsor and London. I don't go up there anymore, so it may have changed, but they were so absent that it was noticeable. Most people kept it right around the 100-115 km/h range that I noticed.

Holy crap that's funny. If you go to the original source (The Emory Wheel) it's actually even funnier, especially down in the comments below the article.

The QC message is stupefyingly confusing, with no contextual meaning, which the follow-up clarification message only made worse. You can't get any more Pantheresque than that. ;) Fair enough. Please make it a point to get details. For example, the FMCSA is very clear that the weight threshold...

Unless the children are adults and have inserted themselves into a campaign, they should be off limits. To be fair, though, the attacks on Perot's family came mostly from the Bushes and the media reported it. Is Ted Cruz being Cruzified on Good Friday? Enquiring minds want to know! Too many...

Then again, this is the standard "Aw crap, been busted!" face.

Ted Cruz already sounds like a televangelist when he talks. Maybe we'll get to see him crying like a disgraced televangelist soon, too. Personally, I don't believe there is any possible way that Ted Cruz has had sex with six women.

Like I said, clear rules. If you read the message, and I have, the rules regarding turn downs aren't even the least little bit clear. The first sentence is, "We have come up with a formula we are going to test as is applies to resetting hours." Well, great. What is the formula? The next two...

Most posted speed limits are arbitrary, usually arbitrarily low. This has been suspected for decades, but it was in 1960s when the Federal Highway Administration traffic research engineers began doing actual studies on it. They do the studies every year and their conclusions are always the same...
