    Is It Worth It?

    I've been reading that on EO since a year before I joined up and became an expediter. That and the fact that there are too many vans out here. And, any day now, tomorrow probably, but maybe sooner, vans will have to log and scale. Expediting is precisely as populated as the supply and demand...

    Concealed carry in schools

    You are utterly ignorant about the Sikh religion. And you are viewing the Kirpan solely in the light of that ignorance. To the Sikhs, a Kirpan is similar in every way to a knife except to that of an actual weapon. It is a symbolic weapon, never an actual weapon, in the same way that a cross is a...

    Businesses don't create jobs?

    There's just no way to spin that to make it sound good. So how did the left try and spin it? They didn't. They ignored it and tried to deflect everything to Romney by digging up a "similar" quote of Romney to US Olympians from 10 years earlier where he said... "For most of you, loving parents...

    Businesses don't create jobs?

    Sorry Cheri. Hillary's had to backpedal like crazy over what she said, because what she said was in the exact same context as Obama's retarded statement, yet both believe firmly in what they've said. Obama's statement within the context of who built the roads and bridges is the sane context s...

    Concealed carry in schools

    You're still ignorantly calling it a weapon. A #2 pencil is an actual potentially deadly weapon.

    Concealed carry in schools

    To think that a Kirpan is a weapon is about as silly (read: ignorant) as claiming the wearing of the Christian Cross is the promoting of an instrument of torture and death. When was the last time you heard of someone, in or out of school, drawing a Kirpan and using it as a weapon? The answer...

    Ask Panther how they feel about using the Zip to Zip method of paying loaded miles.

    It is never "necessary" to hijack a thread.

    Hey "y'all" it's October

    You know, the eyeballs aren't even separate organs, but rather they are outgrowths of the brain. The retina, anyway. Your brain is obviously foggy until you've been awake for a while. :D Actually, it's because the cornea retains fluids during the night and is thus thicker in the morning. The...

    Border patrol displays flag WRONG

    Then you don't know what "arrogant" means. Not only do I not expect flag display knowledge to be second knowledge, I'm fully aware that most people aren't aware of the protocols of flag display. You think the rules are highly complex, and because I find them logical and simple to understand, you...

    Border patrol displays flag WRONG

    I'm not sure why it's an arrogant statement... the rules are simple, easy to understand, easy to follow, because they make logical sense, and once you understand that logical sense the rules suddenly become clear and easy. They are rules on how to fly the flag outdoors, not rules on how to build...

    Border patrol displays flag WRONG

    I didn't have to look anything up because it's not complicated at all. When flown along side of flags of other countries, all the flags are on the same equal footing so to speak, all raised and lowered at the same time. The exception is at the UN where the UN flag flies above all nations. When...

    You don't believe in capital punishment?

    If you reply to the post, and not the poster, then there's no way you can possibly think that, as there's nothing in the text of the original post, nor in the story linked, that has anything even remotely to do with choice of abortion. So is the cognitive dissonance between 'pro choice' and...

    Hey "y'all" it's October

    If I were in dispatch I'd just tell the drivers, "No, it's the weekend! We're all just sitting here playing Solitaire on the computer. And I'm winning!" And then hang up. Probably a good idea that I'm not in dispatch.

    You don't believe in capital punishment?

    I've read the OP cover to cover and can't find a single mention, much less an entire argument, for or against "pro life." This post is about criminal aliens and the killing of them when they commit capital murder. It's not about "pro life" or even about how or why the US Immigration and...

    Border patrol displays flag WRONG

    If flown along with other state flags, then it's highest and in the middle. When flown along side of pennants of societies, the pennants must not be flown to the right of the American flag {from the point of view of the viewer, the American flag must be on the far left). The flags are indeed...

    Difference in Sprinters

    For the most part they are identical. The differences are mostly cosmetic, like the name on the grill. The Dodge and Freightliner and Mercedes grills are different, though. So are the headlamps. A Dodge grill won[t work with Freightliner headlamps without making modifications to the grill. But...

    Southern Frieght

    The nature of expediting hasn't changed much since you drove for FECC. If you go where the freight goes you'll do OK, but if you need to get home a lot then you need to live in the Midwest, or not be an expediter.
