Bullet proof? I may believe bullet resistant, not bullet proof. I would like to do the testing on that one myself. Skepticism could go a LONG way to keeping a person alive. I only waited about a minute, it was not worth any more time than that! :p

Never met Atlas.

The truck is at FedEx, doing it's thing for TVAL. We are bored out of our gourds at a motel. :(

Or what threats were brought to bear? I would not put "arm twisting", blackmail, or worse, beyond the means this bunch would use to get what they are after.

Interesting, no colors I can use though. Too bad.

Hey! I was nice being! :p

Just curious, special treatment for special interest groups is common for these laws. It tends to cause more problems than it solves. The correct route would be not to pass these laws in the first place. That would remove the appearance, or the reality in some cases, of favoritism. I don't...

It will get interesting. MANY religions have prohibitions about contraception or abortion, not to mention strong personal beliefs.

Interesting, sounds like grounds for more lawsuits to me.

That brings a question to mind. Are the Amish, or any other religious groups, with religious objections to "modern" health care subject to Obamacare? :confused:

Won't work, they will change the numbers so they can get both. They cannot tick off their biggest voting block.

The TA at Albert Lea MN. As safe as a truck stop can be, clean most of the time, food is not as bad as the rest of the TA's. Jubitz in Portland, OR. Always felt safe there. Mostly clean and food is OK. The "Fort" in Lebenon, NH. Limited amenities, safe, very good food. Mostly clean.

And yet some say that Satan does not have a sense of humor.

Let's see, we had an oil embargo in the '70's. We had a war ending, lots of people coming home to find lots of others in the jobs. We had entire industries going through major changes. MASSIVE inflation. Double digit interest rates. I saw lines two blocks long for a job a at McDonald's. I saw...

It won't do any good, I never even listened to my mother. :p Besides, I survived the weather in North Yorkshire for 5 years, NOTHING could be worse than that! :eek:

Got IT! LOL!! Fire the government and unfund the freebies. If you did not EARN it you don't GET it!

She should have been paying attention to how the car was running all along. Then it would not have stalled. How many CSA points will she get for being a road hazard? :confused:

Gross over regulation by the government. Regulations that have already made our operations less profitable and less safe. I expect FAR more of this in the coming years. There will be more "safety" regulations, none based on any kind of science, like the sleep apnea mess. We have a "safety"...

It is getting close to time for us to look at a new truck. This, and many other things, will come into play for sure. The anti-business climate in this country will have a lot of weight in our decision as well. It is looking more and more that the return on the investment might not be there in...

Is anyone surprised? Just another nail.
