    Hot but fun.

    MOST of the marsh left down here is State owned. Much is owned by DTE as well. It is spreading on it's own as well. If you get to come out and hunt with us this season you will see lotus seed pods floating everywhere.

    July locations, drama and weather.

    At home. Had a wonderful HOMEMADE dinner, sipping on homemade wine and watching "Second Hand Lions"

    Hot but fun.

    DTE has been a major player in the project. They are not flat like water lilly is. They were over two foot tall. They are an edible plant, a major food source in the marsh. We were fishing behind a Consumers power plant today. They too have spent time and money trying to bring them back.

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    "What concerns me now is that Zimmerman is the perfect example of what gun control advocates fear most: a citizen with the motive, means, and authority to carry a concealed weapon, but not the mature judgement required." There is NO Constitutional requirement for mature judgement when it comes...

    Hot but fun.

    Took my granddaughter and son fishing today. It was HOT! :eek: We did manage to get a couple of fish. Keep my "streak" going. I have not gotten "skunked' where we went today since I started fishing there over 55 years ago! :D To top it off the Lotus was in bloom. Acres and acres of them. The...

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    It's all about dividing the nation. There is hardly a mention when a black kid kills a black kid. A house divided will fall.

    Zimmerman Not Guilty

    The celebrations were offset by the riots and government staged demonstrations by "Uncle Al" and his "buddies" in the DOJ

    FEDEX CC White Glove D unit.

    It sounds, "OK". Too small an engine for my tastes but that is personal. I would not dream of going any smaller than my 450HP I have now. I average 10.5MPG and I seldom have to "work" that engine. Again, personal choice. I also would never own another truck with swing doors. How much insulation...

    What are they considering a "White Glove" unit for $215,00?

    What Truck Parking Changes Have You Seen With New HOS?

    Has anyone calculated just how much time their 30 minute break is REALLY costing them? I have not yet figured it out but it AT LEAST 40 minutes, if not more, to get in a 30 minute break.

    New Exctr. rules and F.S.C.

    No layover option from Halifax, NS either. As a result, no more runs to NS without a MUCH higher rate. It is what it is. There were always be a jack weed willing to take them. Burned once, shame on them, twice, shame on me. There won't be a second shot.

    FedEx Custom Critical to start posting loads on the Sylectus

    Rates are set by jack weeds who are willing to run for peanuts. High fuel, and more so tolls, are having their affect on things. Yet there are trucks that continue to run for the same per mile that they were 3 years ago despite the increase in costs. It will come down around their ears, sooner...

    FedEx Custom Critical to start posting loads on the Sylectus

    Costs continue to rise and rates continue to fall. I see TONS of loads, that are accepted by straights, for UNDER $1 per mile. I have turned down as many as 30 of these loads in a day. Once it is learned that there are fools who will run for these rates that will set the rate. It's just more...

    Only time will tell. I have many concerns, this just being one.

    Keurig coffee maker

    How much coffee does one of those little cups make? On the surface they seem more expensive that regular coffee does. Am I wrong?

    FedEx Custom Critical to start posting loads on the Sylectus

    Thank you. Looks like rates will continue to drop. How grand is that? I guess that quality service is not NEARLY as important as it used to be. Just another reason to question.

    E-Trac Placement

    I guess the AC question would depend on the individual. There has never been a month, since I have been in this business which is over 8 years, that we have NOT used our AC at least one or two nights. I would say that, overall, we use our AC more than we do heat, going by number of hours each...
