    The TA reward program is very van friendly, IF you use diesel and you buy that diesel with a Comdata card. Otherwise it's way more trouble than it's worth.

    For Drivers that get confused often

    Is that supposed to be a Feb 12th story on American Log International, or a Feb international story about 12-foot American Logs? Google can't find anything about a story about "American Log International" or any story at ABC News about Green Card Trucking. I don't get confused all that often...

    After 18 years no longer with Fed Ex Custom Critical.

    And I don't think it's a characterization that is unique to you. I think it fits a lot of people who have been at one carrier their entire career, and have learned to work within the carrier's system to be successful. They aren't really motivated to learn the details of other carriers an view...

    For the romantic truck driver, reserve now.

    They're picking up the slack for this place, which is already sold out of reservations at most locations. :D

    After 18 years no longer with Fed Ex Custom Critical.

    For others it's not even about not wanting more or not having the skills, it's more about not knowing about what's different about another place. ATeam, for example, didn't think the grass was all that greener... until he left. He spent his entire trucking career with FedEx and knew it well, but...

    National Prayer Breakfast 2015.

    That's a very dangerous question, because my answer is gonna pіss off a lot of Christians. Short answer is, yes, I believe he is a Christian. He claims to be a Christian, so I have to go with that, just like I believe others when they say they are Christian. I have no reason to doubt him, to...

    Yes, both, more than once. Out of curiosity, why do you ask?

    Bananas are very good for you. They're loaded with potassium, vitamin C, and maybe most importantly, fiber. Unlike grapes, raisins and watermellon (which if you're losing weight, eating healthy and/or have diabetes you need to stay away from generally), bananas are low on the Glycemic Index. But...

    National Prayer Breakfast 2015.

    If you're going to sit there and call me a liar, then you need to justify it and tell me how I lied. Made of whole cloth - Something made completely new, with no history, and not based on anything else. A complete fabrication, a lie with no basis in the truth. Since I just got through...

    No, he didn't say "not to criticize" in those exact words. "And lest we get on our high horse and think this is unique to some other place, remember that during the Crusades and the Inquisition, people committed terrible deeds in the name of Christ. In our home country, slavery and Jim Crow...

    Just to clarify, this thread is about the railgun, sure, but more than that it's mostly about this guy, a Rear Admiral, and how he talks about it. He's very intense when he talks about flux capacitors. :D

    It's Like a Flux Capacitor!

    The US Navy's new railgun has debuted at the Navy’s Future Force Science and Technology Expo at the Washington Convention Center this week, and it's gnarly as far as big guns go. Conventional weapons like a Hellfire missile can travel little over Mach 1 and a 5-inch gun hit targets up to 13...

    You can justify that by moving to a cheaper apartment closer to work so that your costs are less. :rolleyes:

    It used to be that presidents would shun or ignore (or bar from the press pool) reporters who wouldn't play ball, but Obama has taken that much further. And there are several other connections not mentioned in that piece. Things inside the Beltway are even more incestuous than is Hollywood...
