    WI-FI internet?

    Nope, they have rather a lock on wifi at truck stops. The sad thing is the service level agreement does not guarentee internet access at all, read them carefully. I was disgusted by Pilots tech support telling me that I have to live with the 100 bits per second and the 3000ms ping times to...

    D.A.C.

    Truck drivers specifically. I have never heard of it used for couriers, and when I appied for a driving position as a test driver, all I needed was a Motor Drivers Record (MDR). outside of that, most people have no clue what it is.

    fuel tanks

    I got a qoute for steel tanks last month - $650 each for the cheap ones and $850 each for the OEM replacements. The tanks I have now have been repaired once and are not up to my standards and I don't want another set of used steel tanks on the truck. As soon as I can, I am hitting the truck...

    Dale Jr. getting the boot ?

    >I never was much of an Earnhardt fan. Even though I was a >bit sad when Sr died...I always thought he was a dirty >driver. Well I have to say that as much as I love to watch Nascar and F-1, I lost all interest in either sr. or jr. when sr. died. The place I worked at went into a freinzy...

    Talk about fast

    If Ford would do a few other models like this and reduce the price where they would not make a profit, it would be a good thing. They did it with the original GT and my favorite the Lincoln Mark II and can do it again to get the brand in everyone's mind. I driven a bunch of Gts'(preproduction...

    Buffet's

    Buffets were invented by pharmaceutical companies as a way to ensure the public gets sick to sell medicine.

    2006 Sportsman of the Year: John Mellencamp

    >I'm surprised no one wrote me back. "Hey T-hawk! Thanx for >posting that! Now I peed myself!" > Well I won't admit to peeing on myself if I did but I found this paragraph the best thing I have read in a long time; “I can’t say I ever expected to be named Sportsman of the Year. But I...

    Where did it go?

    I noticed this too, I hate it when it happens just as I hate things being locked when there is 'too much' discussion going on or when opinions are, well rather heated. But I also have to defend the right of a site to do so, we don't own the site and free speech laws don't apply when you have...

    Something to do while sitting...

    what to do? I am with Leo on this, Amateur Radio and Electronics. I guess it seems I spend a lot of time on line but that is dwindling more every trip. I also watch a lot of movies, but I have yet to see one all the way through on the weekdays, seeing I have gotten an offer every day this week...

    Good for Goode!

    Tallcal, I don’t agree with you, but thanks for the compliment. I just don’t agree that the public has been fed anything; the media is very left and very controlling of the messages to the public, filtering a lot of facts. Herr Dr. Goebbels would be proud of them with their ability to use...

    Healthcare

    I am wondering why people always bring up the past when trying to defend invaders? I find the argument somewhat flawed and really insulting, seeing all of the present population had nothing to do with the what happened 100 to 300 years ago. If I could change things, I would but I can’t...

    How obsessive can one be?

    I am sitting here in West Memphis minding my own business when a nice looking KW pulls in carrying explosives. It is all purple with green trim and even the tire lettering is purple and green. So the guy gets out and polishes here and there and makes it nice and shinier. He then pulls out a...

    Arnold/Universal Health Care

    Cheri, I use that as an example because I have seen it covered by BCBS wisconsin and illinios when I did claims troubleshooting. The idea that elective surgery like that and the cosmetic surgery too needs to be covered is a problem when you look at the operations of the insurance system. As...

    THEN AND NOW

    You forgot one; Scenario: Johnny’s teacher takes a few days off for a tooth ache and returns to class after a weekend of recovery. Johnny runs up to his teacher and gives her a hug. 1960 - Johnny feels better about the absence of his teacher. 2006 – Johnny is accused of sexual harassment...

    Hooking up an inverter

    Hey Chet, I would fuse the battery end of the positive cables. Go and get a maxifuse holder and a fuse the 20% the size (I think, anyone can corect me) of the max draw of current. If you ever seen a cable glow in daylight, it is something else.

    Arnold/Universal Health Care

    Actually the state level reforms may work out better than any federal program. I think that we need to examine dissolving of Medicare/Medicaid as a start and force the insurance companies to carrier people over 65. But as I have said before, when you talk about insurance, insurance companies...

    America: Freedom to Fascism

    Taxes? Well I do abject to paying income taxes, it is a punishment and is has nothing to do with Civic Responsibility. The fire, police and other civic services are not a federal responsibility; it is local responsibility and has nothing to do with my income. The problem I have is that there...
