Thanks, although the way this week turned out the "Great Lizard Folly" was one of the real highlights of the week!!! :rolleyes:

Assuming this story is correct I have a couple of questions: do the recognize Lent? What about on of the Jewish seasons? Is this the same thing as a State religion now? Inquiring minds want to know. :confused:

Remember, OVM, even a stopped watch is right twice a day!! (assuming it is an analog watch or a digital watch on a 12 hour setting) Obama IS worse than Carter and Carter was worse than sitting on a log covered in fire ants!! :p

That's ok, it got worse. That short load we were on today, that was to deliver today at 1700, turned into a dry run. In the mean time we lost ANOTHER shot at a run that paid almost $4000. That load did NOT pickup until Monday either. SO, no run today, a small amount of dry run pay and no other...

Also be sure that any vents that might be back there are not blocked.

Check you in cab air filiter, it might need changed. They greatly restrict air flow when plugged. Do you have an APU? That would help out a lot and with a small sleeper like that you would not need a really big one.

Nope, we saw no offer for ANY kind of load on Sat. White Glove or otherwise.

I would love to see Obama gone as soon as possible too. It is not yet 2012. As of now there is NO legal means of removing him. IF he voids our Constitution, it is my personal belief that he would like too, then all bets are off. Till then, we are stuck with him.

Lincoln is a toss up. If I move it will be to Kansas City. It will cost about $150 to make that move. I will have to see what happens. Not working crystal ball to help this time. :(

I miss Carter as much as I miss having oozing hives all over my body. I like Obama less than I do Carter!! :eek:

Hey, if Fedex loses "good will" and they write off "value" can I do the same since my "good will" is directly tied to theirs? :confused:

That is their problem, not mine. Besides the ONLY two ways I could have a kid now would be to adopt or cheat on my wife. I won't adopt because I am in NO posititon to raise a kid and I don't want too. I won't cheat on my wife because it is wrong and I want to live!! I won't go into the idea of...

I don't know about the reporting, I am only able to read this on line. As a former firefighter/EMT I can assure you that this is NOT a good practice and could be dangerous. I would NEVER run a call in a Crown Vic. The City will be open to MAJOR law suits if ANYTHING goes wrong with a "car"...

LOL!! It gets us all!! Wait till you get to my age! Just how old am I now? :confused: Desert Storm/Shield was one of the last major operations I worked on. I was invloved with weather reporting (in a round about way) for the combat region. Hard to explain. I am not a weather person but had to...

I don't know Greg, we have always done well out of here. Some of our best weeks were in the Denver area. Just not this time. We took the load that brought us here based on two things. It payed very well and we have always had a lot of good loads when in this area. It HAS to be the crystal...

Yep, got burned by that today. Not that it was anyone's fault mind you. The load we took paid GREAT by the mile but it was only 50 miles. Lost a shot at a REALLY good load because we are on this one.

Detroit has been running on "Obama" style socialism and math for YEARS. The story below only serves to point out just how well THAT works. Detroit Fire Crown Victoria (Credit: myFOXDetroit.com) Regular Photo Size Detroit EMTs Forced to Drive Crown Victorias...

Hey, witness23, not ONLY military personnel put their lives on the line. Look at the story below. I sure hope that this was NOT one of Detroit's famous arson fires. It is bad enough when a firefighter goes down, to get injured or killed due to a criminal act is FAR worse. At least it is in my...

Yeah, I know, can't hurt those criminals self-esteem now can we?

Thanks for the answer AND your service. As to the movie quote, it is just a thing with me. I try to avoid them. While you, or I for that matter, have NOT been in combat, you must keep in mind that as long as we were in the service our lives were on that line. As I am sure you know, anyone in...
