That would definitely be a great solution for all involved. I guess I just don't understand why this information is not made available. Is it supposed to be secret? Is it information that only the load planners are supposed to know? If so, why? What harm can it do for it to be available to...

"Mr_whoever-he-is" kind of reminds me of someone with multiple personalities. One minute he is posting with a somewhat "adult" attitude and style, then he posts with a larger, bold font and can only say childish things like "you got me.. you got me good.. hahahaha.. feel better", then he...

I've been reading all of the suggestions and researching the different headsets mentioned online. So far I like the look of the Blue Parrot because it goes over the ear instead of just inside of the ear. I can not stand to use the type of headphones that you stick "in" your ear, so I don't...

I'm genuinely sorry to hear about the problems this young man is having, however I tend to agree with Moose and ATeam. He needs to be home with his child. It may not seem like it to a young parent at the time, but childhood flys by so fast, especially the first year, and you can never get that...

I'm glad to hear that the robins are returning. I'm so ready for spring and summer!

Sounds like it was a wonderful day! The fishing would be great fun, but I would probably get seasick. I went on a cruise one time and ended up doped up on Dramamine the entire time. :(

Great information on the snakes Turtle, thanks!! The garter snakes and racers in Michigan have that "lizard" look to them. Since I've never seen a poisonous snake in person, I wouldn't know the difference, but your description of the differences in the head is very helpful. I think I'll just...

I found some information on "poison wood" and thought I'd share it. This information is from the University of Florida web site, Florida 4-H Forest Ecology. Poisonwood, also known as Florida poisontree or hog gum, is related to poison sumac and poison oak, all members of the cashew or...

Poison ivy grows as a vine, and if it has nothing close by to grow up on to, it will support itself and become "bushy". It always has leaf stalks that contain 3 leaves, one larger center leaf and a smaller leaf on each side of that. Leaves are "notched" on at least one side of each individual...

Yes, poison ivy is a NASTY plant to those that are allergic to the oil from it. As requested, here are some pictures of the plant. Some species also flower and produce a "fruit" and I have posted pictures of those as well. (Unfortunately since my hubby reformated my hard drive I don't have a...

Oh my word, I just cannot imagine having a snake that large getting that close to me. It would scare the life out of me, especially since I freak at the little snakes I do come across when fishing at a lake near my home! At least you should have a very low rodent population around your place...

Ok Mr_Vango, you have not answered any of my questions and done nothing more than post childish replies that show the same mentality that my kids had in junior high school. You are another of those type of people that are just not worth arguing with and I am going to stop now. I'm sure all of...

Re: Bimbo of the House: One of the problems is that the farmers aren't going to pay even minimum wage for work in their fields. They hire migrant workers who do the job for very little and temporary housing, which is usually sub-standard. It is basically true that a lot of the immigrants and...

7 feet long??!! EEEEK! The biggest snake I've seen in Michigan was a Blue Racer that chased me out of the apple orchard when I was about 12. At that time it looked absolutely HUGE though I'm sure it was a lot bigger to my childish imagination than it really was! lol My aunt's Gordon Setter...

Since spring is upon us and the woods may be calling for mushroom hunting, fishing or just plain wandering, I thought it might be helpful to post a reminder about poison ivy. I myself am VERY allergic to the oil from this plant and have even gotten a rash just from walking through the smoke of...

*Note to self* Stay out of the woods in Kentucky! I think I'll avoid the churches too! lol I'll contain my mushroom hunting to the safe forests of lower Michigan. :D

I'm glad to hear that she is back to work and hope that the injuries from the fall weren't too serious. It was last week when we made the delivery there actually. Some kind of display stuff they needed for the grocery department.

So if my ancestry is part Irish and Scottish, does that mean I'm a hillbilly too? :D LOLOL now that's funny!!

Does Kentucky have poisonous snakes? I know there are cotton mouths, copper heads, etc down south but I don't know how far "north" they are. I wouldn't be going into those woods! lol

The weeds and ticks I can handle. The snakes, not so much. I may be a "country girl" but I'm still a "girl" and as the song goes, "I don't like spiders and snakes!" lol
