    Hello-Newbie with a question??

    This is one of the easiest sites to work with. Many of us are new to trucking as well. Take your time and ask specific questions. That will get around the lingo.

    These are Democrats?

    What do you base that on? My wife's cousins kids are doing just fine. Like I said, two have graduated from college. Not basket weaving classes either. The oldest has her degree in forensic science and the other is a nurse. HEY WAIT!! Were you just stirring the pot again? LOL!! The point is that...

    These are Democrats?

    The fact don't bear you out. As of 2006 there were still more than 400 one room school houses in active use in the United States. Home schooling is a valid option as are many others. We have just allowed ourselves to become dependent on the State.

    These are Democrats?

    Of course they can. They can home school. It is just as good or better than public education. They can form a small group and hire one teacher. There are many ways. Depending on the government should be the last. My wife's cousin lives west of that River. Home schools 7 kids. The two oldest...

    These are Democrats?

    No, I did not miss the point. While they are talking about smaller government they are still controlling things that they have no business in. That is no how you shrink government. I am for no public education as Greg is. There is no good reason that any size community cannot handle this...

    Turn the clocks ahead this weekend

    Yep, time for that semi-annual stupidity. The sun knows what time it is. Just like our congress to think they know better than nature as to what time it is!! I am not going to say something stupid, like I read in the Miami Herald once long ago. Some genius wrote in complaining about daylight...

    These are Democrats?

    Close but no cigar. Both the Feds and the State should be out of education. All funding and control of education should be at the local level. Parents and those who foot the bill should have and must have total control.

    Hello-Newbie with a question??

    There are many other expediting companies out there. They may or may not be better than FedEx depending on the needs of the owner or driver. One company that fits one will not always fit another. It appears that you need to take a lot more time to study this. As said before, there is no rush...

    "But Things are Getting Better.....

    Anyone who has a refund withheld should file a lawsuit and demand interest plus penalties. After all it is THEIR money, not the states. This is all the fault of required withholding. If we were not FORCED to loan the government money at no interest this could not happen. Our taxes are due on...

    March 2010 Location

    No, that is not correct, Michigan has many seasons besides winter and construction. There is a 12 month fishing season, spring and fall turkey seasons, duck season, goose season, deer season, grouse season and rabbit season, just to name a few!! :D

    New charges coming at Pilot

    The more one learns about their business they better they do. Fuel is an extremely important part of the business. When one starts I think we assume, rightly or wrongly, that fuel is fuel and always meets minimum standards. Then, after we feel we can hold our heads above water without sinking we...

    New charges coming at Pilot

    Different people learn at different rates. People learn what is easy for them to learn first then, work on things that are more difficult later. There is the business end, the truck and the living on the road end to learn. It is not possible to learn it all prior to starting, unless you have the...
