Pilgrim... Obama wouldn't know whether to bang a gong or gang a bong.

Guido... my two E350's have a combined mileage over one million miles. Never have had a single transmission problem. However, with the older one, I did replace the rear axle ($1200).

Please explain. Are we the spawn of some primordial soup?

Chilly... you're paying attention.

Yes, LDB, it has been my experience there is almost always more to a story than first revealed. Even when we are certain all the facts are in, there are often more facts dangling in the ether. Some facts are stragglers. Some must be dragged into the light. Some of the most pertinent facts in...

I've heard if you stand on one leg at 615am with your left eye closed and recite the lyrics to "Psilocybin Pony" while accompanied by an accordian ... maybe you won't get hit with a refusal. Of course you won't even know for sure for several days after the fact. Can anyone else see the...

I think Mexico's biggest export to America is labor. Of course, there are the drugs. too. If we factor in everything that's traded on the blackmarket, I doubt we have a favorable balance of trade with Mexico. Ross Perot was prescient in his warnings about NAFTA. He had the right message...

Wilson came from academia as does Obama to an extent. I am quite prepared to support a moratorium on electing academic types with no real life experience, no business experience and no military experience. Professional politicians are a problem.

Have you seen the films and posters produced from 1939 to 1945, produced right here in America with the blessings of the American government which dehumanize the Germans and Japanese? They are depicted as being less than human. Every conceivable racial slur and monstrous stereotype is attached...

Greg, you know the answer. Propaganda comes in many forms. Nations at war use every possible tool in their arsenal: the element of surprise, disinformation, misinformation, subterfuge, sabotage, deceit, etc. Propaganda is all about the psychology of a people at war. Getting a nation's...

RLENT, despite your protests, effective propaganda is essential to winning wars. I'm not pro-war. I'm for winning wars. Yes, propaganda plays to the emotions, but going to war is not exclusively a rational decision. Going to war is usually an emotional response to an untenable threat or set...

Keith, the van I drive is diesel and averages around 19mpg. At $1.95 per gallon my fuel cost is around 11cpm..

I'm seeing between 5 and 10cpm on most runs with cargo vans.

You can use your Comdata card at Wal Mart cash registers to get cash back. Also, same goes for debit cards. Debit cards from any bank can be used at Wal Mart to get cash back, without incurring any fees from your home bank. Using a Comdata card at Wal Mart will incur a fee from Comdata...

I'm with you Guido. I soooo don't miss this pseudo-babble. Carriers can reach a point where they are hamstrung by layers and layers of ever changing rules and policies. In an effort to please certain fiefdoms, efficiency gets tossed.

We, Americans, have strayed so far from the Founding Fathers vision for this country that I fear they would scarcely recognize what it has become.

Why would anyone necessarily assign a negative connotation to the term "propaganda" ... all governments and all political parties, including the present one, use propaganda everyday to shape public opinion. It is used to marshal support for public policy, legislation, foreign affairs...

Mr G..... what's wrong with anti-communism propaganda? Would you prefer pro-communism?

Lots of missing information here.... failing to get a ping on the qc could be attributed to parking too close to a building, thus blocking a signal. Or parking under a tree, or a dozen other possibilities. Or a dead battery. Red flags pop up when this goes unreported for several days...

We need the facts, all the facts, to make any determination.
