Well, that's in addition to the $0.75 per deadhead mile, and plus FSC. If you're driving for a fleet owner and are getting the 40%, that's $0.50 per mile, which is on the high end of general trucking. If you're getting the 60%, that's $0.75 per mile plus the FSC. FedEx may still have the sexy...

There are two parts of the FMCSA's regulating and enforcement authority. One is the Safety regulations, and the other is the Commercial (operating authority) regulations. Safety regulations only apply to Commercial Motor Vehicles (of which cargo vans are not), and commercial regulations apply to...

Without a doubt, the biggest obstacle in expediting that truck drivers coming from general trucking face is the sitting. Many can't handle it and are gone within a month or two. They believe the notion that "if your wheels ain't turnin' you ain't earnin'" and to a large degree that's true in...

If we get Bernie, then $20 trillion will become the Good Ol' Days. You should watch this, absolutely. Cheri should not, absolutely. :squaredfree::!!:

In a parody ad aired during SNL? No. So you may be on to wondering there. Soooo, is it attacking the competition in general that's the problem, or is it attacking Clinton that's the problem? Or is it that using them as props is fine, just don't give them a speaking role? Chelsea Clinton...

One of the two big jobs are is done. That was getting all of the smilies in the "New Smiles" tab to look at the sprite sheet, and in the right location. The next big job will get getting all of the Christmas and Animated icons on the local server. Right now they're just hotlinked from smilie...

It's a balmy 17° F in Fargo. :cold:

It's a work in progress. Lots and lots of new ones. Not quite done yet, but behind the scenes I'm doing things to make it easier on the server. Instead of each smilie being its own little file on the server, which requires a separate http request for every-single-icon, every time anyone accesses...

I remember my first CB license. Well, I remember that I had one, I don't actually remember the call letters. I do think they should bring back that requirement, if for no other reason truck washes and pizzamen will stop advertising on the CB. I do think this new registration law will go to...

The Aussie is a whiny little baby. For one, he doesn't even live here. Two, if people weren't flying drones in the way of planes and helicopters, and crashing them into the stands at sporting events, these regulations wouldn't even be necessary. Three, the analogy between the registering of...

"Maybe you heard of me... the Butcher of Luverne?" "I have heard of you. And may I say... brother, I like your style." When I drove right by Luverne on the way up here, I couldn't help but to think of that exchange.

Yeah, it's very different now. It snowed quite a bit last week, and it's all still here. The last 5 days has seen single digit highs, and negative single digit lows. Currently there are no degrees whatsoever.

Exactly. Considering one of his biggies is free education, the point he was making was hardly that education is a worthy investment. In order for his point to be about investment, there needs to be a positive return, and there is no evidence whatsoever, none mind you, that investment in...

Fargo is beginning to grow on me.

Far as I know, no politician has ever used his kids in a campaign to praise an opponent. They have always been used to either praise the parent or criticize the opponent. Neither one is crossing the line. Both are routine. Criticizing the children, that's crossing the line. All the outrage is...
