    Time to be the dart board!

    No, I wouldn't, but that's a different issue than the CPM case you're making. I'm sure some will, but the reason for getting a 50 MPG vehicle is to make more profit, not simply to run cheaper so you can net the same as other vehicles. Having a lower CPM allows one to have flexibility in taking...

    Time to be the dart board!

    It's not really using that advantage to profit, it's merely running cheaper. Using that 15 cent advantage to profit would be running the load for 15 cents more and pocketing the 15 cents instead of leaving it on the table for someone else (broker, carrier, customer) to have.

    Interesting. I notice he said is happened with the videos that he watched from the new month postings, the "Current "Assignment" where Feb and March are listed separately at the top. I didn't miss any questions with the monthly videos I watched, but I only watched a couple of them from there...

    National Prayer Breakfast 2015.

    Yes, Christian bashing and trashing America. He didn't need to give a "rah rah" speech, but what he did was tell (preach to) a room full of Christians not to criticize the ISIS and the atrocities they have committed because Christians have been guilty of the same offenses in the past during the...

    That's exactly what happened when they went to this new format. With the old format, after you'd watched a video (and completed the test questions) it showed you had seen the video, but you could watch it again. It was still there and available for you to click on and watch again. Granted, not...

    45 minutes, God answers a mother's prayer

    It's classic God of the Gaps. I don't know how x could have happened, it's a mystery. Everything I don't know or understand is caused by God. Therefor, God caused x. It's the Argument from ignorance logical fallacy. "I don't know, I'm ignorant, so this is how I'm going to explain it, and unless...

    I just watched the Excedrine Headache video by clicking it in the March 2015 menu section. After watching it, it then disappeared from the March 2015 folder, indicating that I've completed that assignment video. However, the same video still shows up under the Trucking Industry folder, meaning...

    Wow. OK, they made a big change to the Infinit-i Web site. It's mostly a good one. On the Assignments Menu page, at the top, they have assignment sections for February and March, separated out so you don't have to waste a lot of time looking for them. That's awesome. Except, the ones I've...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    Linear, like film. It's kind of like when President Ronald Reagan recounted, more than once, the tale of when, as a young soldier in the US Army Signal Corps during World War II, he had personally witnessed and filmed the liberation and dismantling of the Buchenwald Nazi death camp, and how that...

    The Brian Williams saga.

    At first blush that might seem hypocritical, but as Fox News is in a difference business than is Brian Williams. :D

    Abortion

    It seems you have a problem with the meaning of "being." Being is a fact of existence, something that exists, as opposed to nonexistence. A human being, with "human" being the descriptive adjective, is one type of being. There are exotic beings in the sea, existential beings, alien beings...

    Don't get rid of the paper copy of your medical card!!!!

    I've picked up and delivered several times at military bases, and 4 times I've been asked for my medical card, even though I'm in a cargo van (Sprinter). And, even though I'm in a cargo van, a medical card was required for the load. All 4 times were placed I'd picked up before, and since, where...

    National Prayer Breakfast 2015.

    Oh, yeah, it was a thing started in the 1950s and was originally called the Presidential Prayer Breakfast. The name was changed in 1970, but every president since Eisenhower has participated in the annual event. It's an event hosted by Congress and usually has two guest speakers; the President...

    Abortion

    No one is saying life doesn't begin at conception. No one is denying that "a killing" is taking place when an abortion happens. An abortion is the killing of a fetus, there's no debate about that. But a fetus is not a human, nor a child, nor a baby.

    Except for everything else I said after that.

    The Brian Williams saga.

    He got the facts right when he initially reported it, but the facts got fuzzier and different with every reteling. I think he's senile.

    Abortion

    Every time I make that statement somebody invariably comes back with an extreme example (or in this case, two). My answer is always the same. Yes, you should be able to raise your kids any way you want. They're your kids, nobody else's, and how you raise them is nobody's business. Now, if...

    I started watching the Fatigue Management videos and realized that I've seen them before. Those 2 videos were November, 2013. So that's why it's not showing up under the Assignments section. We need a page on that site that lists every single possible video training session, and it should show...

    No Fatigue Management (parts 1 or 2) No Opening/Closing Truck Hood - An Excedrin Headache, Every Which Way But Loose Now, it could be that I already took the Fatigue Management training months ago even though it wasn't on the list of training videos, as once you complete a session the videos...
