    Glass cleaner

    Windex has ammonia which is bad for the rubber seal around the window and damages the window tint (after market and manufacturer). Stoner's Invisible Glass and Sprayway Glass Cleaner are the two products that professional auto detailers use the most.

    Buckeyes Riot Burn Destroy Property, Not A Thug In Sight

    A town with a history of white police abuse against blacks, where they allowed a police dog to urinate on the memorial the very first day, and a few hours later the police ran over it and crushed the memorial. That set the stage right there. It isn't all that overwhelming. Some supported...

    About some things, I'm sure. But I bet they weren't dumb about their fields of study. If only it were that easy. There is no way anyone with a degree would say that, because it simply isn't true. Parroting may get some people through high school, but it won't get you very far in any individual...

    Medical card 2nd opinions

    Because there's no way for the DOT officer to verify your card without getting into your long form, and medical privacy laws prevent that. Doctors can't give out that information over the phone even of the DOT cop calls them to verity. It's very, very difficult to verify a DOT medical card...

    Looking for a better carrier

    Depending on which carrier you are with, most straights operate within a rather narrow rate per mile, as well. It's not like with tractors where the range varies wildly. But with cargo vans (and Sprinters) the rate is gonna be pretty consistent, within a small range, on virtually all of the...

    Thanks. Except for ridiculous amount of typos. Which have been corrected. :D

    Looking for a better carrier

    And I'm one of them. All things being equal, I'd rather drive more miles than less miles, because I'll make more money driving more miles than I will driving less miles. Sure, the rate per mile is certainly a factor that can't be dismissed, but then again the miles is a factor that can't be...

    Buckeyes Riot Burn Destroy Property, Not A Thug In Sight

    The protests in Ferguson were peaceful initially. There was a makeshift memorial of flowers at the spot where Brown died, and a K-9 officer allowed his dog to urinate on the memorial, which didn't exactly engender the police to the crowd. Then a little while later police vehicle ran over and...

    That's the crux of the problem right there. Most of the people (arguably all of them) who got gassed in Columbus weren't rioting at all. Many of them were, in fact, standing there on the sidewalk when they got hit with pepper spray and tear gas.

    Medical card 2nd opinions

    Panther requires van drivers to have a CDL for several reasons. One is, someone is likely to be a little more serious about the occupation if they go to the trouble of getting a CDL. Another is the theory that those with CDLs are smarter than those without (we all know what a load of crap that...

    Medical card 2nd opinions

    Yes and no. Load One requires CV drivers to pass a DOT physical when initially leased on, but after that they do not require annual or biennial examinations.

    Yeah, it's really not a good idea to turn the stereo up so loud that you can't hear, either, even though a lot of people, myself included, do it all the time (although in a Sprinter with only the dash speakers, that's not an easy thing to do without blowing the speakers). Sense, common and...

    Canned corn final answer

    Picking out a list of successful people without college degrees does not in any way prove that "a college degree does not equal intelligence," which is what you asserted. Success and intelligence are not even the same thing, nor do they require each other. One can be very successful at something...

    You'll have to define "huge outrage" then. The author brought it up because the outrage was, and still is, pretty significant. The outrage is so significant that the narrative of the reporting quickly changed from the damage done by "revelers" to that of tear gas being used and pepper spray...

    I'm not sure if using Noah as an argument that college degrees are meaningless, considering that Noah wasn't even real and is a fictional character co-opted from the myths of previous cultures.

    Canned corn final answer

    I spent a lot of years in the restaurant industry where the #10 can was ubiquitous. It's actually far less prevalent than it used to be, with many things that used to come in those cans now coming packaged in bag-in-box or larger plastic pails. The fast food places I worked didn't use them much...
