I put it out that way because this young man does the BEST he can with what he has. I am TIRED of able bodied and able minded people sitting about, crying how hard life is, sucking of the public teat, making little to no effort to improve THEMSELVES. BELIEVING that they are ENTITLED to...

Some just is as they are.

At the "J" in Columbia, SC. Pick up near here in the morning, heading for NC. Then a little NC to NC run after that.

Picking up near Chicago in an hour or so, heading for Birmingham, AL

That is not that much. My business supports itself, the lives of two people, house etc. Not hard to do. IF I were not a reefer truck, with reefer truck expenses, that figure would be less.

Language is alive. It ebbs and flows, it changes. It joins with others. It always has. A young man goes to war, deep in the jungles of Vietnam. He comes back and his speech has changed. New words and "sayings" have become his norm. He is faced with "BOOCOO" problems or a "world of hurt"...

There are many expediters that gross $200K, or more, in a year. They do, however, have much higher overhead to contend with.

I was just poking fun at the need to pick on other's mistakes and/or misspellings. Grammar, however, DOES change with time, it has always done so. Word usage changes. Words go into, and out of, fashion, or "style" so to speak. Even usage and grammar within the same 'language' is often...

Grammar is nothing more than man made rules about the use of language. It is subject to change without notice. RIGHTS are endowed upon us by our Creator and therefor are NOT subject to change by either man nor government. RIGHTS are IMPORTANT, grammar is a convenience.

I need to AVERAGE $1000 per day, running or not, just to make ends meet. This is going to drive up costs to EVERYONE and do NOTHING to make the roads safer. It is just another government imposed farce. I am curious though, why is a non trucker showing an interest in our HOS problem? Don't get...

As I said, there are policies and their are people of morals. It is obvious where this "nurse" stands.

You are not simple minded, you just have no understanding of how this industry works. First off, few if any expediters are hourly employees. We are either paid by the mile or a percentage of the load. Second, very few are even employees, we are private business owners and these new HOS regs are...

Are you a healthy, intelligent person on welfare? Do you feel you are being "held back"? Do you believe you are "owed" a living or access to other's wages? Are you a victim of slave traders, greedy bosses etc and therefor need "help" to succeed? WELL If you answered YES to any of these...

Enjoy! The Onion is SO good at this stuff! http://www.theonion.com/video/braindead-teen-only-capable-of-rolling-eyes-and-te,27225/

The "Sheeple" are not going to listen, to Ron Paul, or anyone else for that matter. There is no reaching the "larger audience". You may try if you wish, but it will do no good. Far too many are too dependent, too "educated" to believe that the government is their "friend" and would never do...

We are getting "loud and in your face" because are rights ARE being threatened on a daily basis. Not only in the halls of congress but at State levels and on the streets. People are being detained, sometimes ticketed and even arrested for the crime of carrying a gun, which IS an ABSOLUTE right...

If you don't know what a moral responsibility is I can't teach you. That is taught to the young, to prepare them for adult life. There is NO cost to a DNR order or living wills. The patient's doctor is not there to "shift" the care, only to insure that the patients personal wishes are adhered...

Many people have "Living wills" or "DNR" orders on record. Those documents spell out the needs and wants of the individual in the event of an emergency. Those orders should be reviewed and changed as the individuals life changes. Company "policy" is NOT a valid reason to withhold treatment...

It is more or less the same here. People can choose the level of independence wanted based on individual needs. Some places are privately funded and some operate, all or in part, on government subsidies.

Unless I was aware of a "DNR" on record for this particular person I would have ignored the "practice" or "policy" and performed CPR. CPR, as you know, is a stopgap measure to try to prevent brain death long enough to allow emergency services to arrive. It seldom "revives" anyone. It buys the...
