Except, of course, for the ones who have been convicted. People are in jail for one of three reasons: People who have been arrested and are being held pending a plea agreement, trial, or sentencing; People who have been convicted of a misdemeanor criminal offense and are serving a sentence of...

I wish we had a list of all the new phone numbers from which we can expect to receive calls from the new dispatch offices. I added 3 numbers from the TN office today. If I get a call from a number that's not in my phone contact list, the phone never rings and the call goes to voicemail. Unless...

The gays who don't define themselves by their sexuality are treated with respect and dignity. It's the ones who are all up in your face about their sexuality, who define who they are by flaunting deviant sexual behavior (deviant, abnormal, nonstandard, atypical, irregular, uncommon, unorthodox...

No you should not assume it won't ever happen to you, nor should you refrain from objecting to it because you haven't personally been a victim. By the same token, you should make yourself and every other woman a victim simply because it happens to a some women, which is exactly what you did with...

If you read the article, they make it very clear that people have to be "educated" about this, so they'll happily, even gleefully, opt-in.

The tax is actually a road tax, that gets collected when you buy fuel. If you don't buy fuel (electric vehicle), or much of it (fuel efficient vehicle), your road taxes aren't being paid. If you don't pay your share of road taxes, that's more money from collected fuel taxes that actually has to...

Do keep in mind that bigotry deals with the intolerance of other creeds, beliefs and ideas. Homosexuality is none of those things. Also, the Civil Rights Act does not list sexual orientation (or gender identity) as a protected class. The vitriol and hatred pronounced by gays in response to...

Oh, no. It wasn't me who booked that load. ;)

Well, it was not placardable, anyone could have hauled it, including a cargo van. Two drums on one skid. I had to DH from the TA in Laredo all the way down to the Killiam Industrial Park to pick it up. It originated in Mexico, and delivered to Baytown (Channelview). 341 loaded, 6 DH, $528 and...

I got out of Laredo, and it wasn't for 50 cents. It was closer to three times that.

I'm currently hauling two 55-gallon drums of low-ethanol gasoline to a Houston refinery for testing. I really hope it doesn't roll and explode.

Today is July 1st. It's Canada Day, and International Joke Day. Coincidence? I don't think so. July 4th is, of course, Independence Day. Ben Franklin once wrote, "Time may be money, but your money can't buy time." Oh, wait, that was James Taylor. July 6th is Fried Chicken Day, in honor of...

It's an opinion piece. They have concluded in their opinion what the REAL REASON is, but that doesn't make their conclusion the REAL REASON.

Wow you're completely right! Thanks for letting me know how completely wrong my opinion is! The spot-on zinger about my writing style is particularly salient and helpful. Thanks!

Yes, it's very important that people be wowed from time to time.

That's what I'm here for. :cool:

They fully explained their decision right there in the article at the Washington Times. Did you not read the entire article? Send pretty well reasoned and thoroughly thought out. I'm practically a collector of hypocrisies, and I just don't see it. If the two pictures were contained solely to the...

Discrimination comes into play when the state continues to recognize religious marriages, and gives them state benefits. Gays will say they want to be married and have the same legal benefits, but they don't want to have a religious ceremony, and now we have states requiring compelled religious...

She can be voted out, but that's mostly it. If she is convicted of a felony then her duties are vacated. She could be charged with first-degree official misconduct if "a public servant ... refrains from performing a duty imposed upon him by law or clearly inherent in the nature of his office."...

You can't just "can" a County Clerk in Kentucky. You'd be surprised at how much power a County Clerk has in Kentucky. The governor can't do anything about it. County Clerks are elected officials who answer to the people.
