    Hillary's parking ticket woe

    It should be noted that Hillary didn't park her silver Mercedes limo, her security staff did. It should also be noted that Hillary isn't the only American diplomat to rankle British authorities with regards to traffic violations. Earlier this summer, British Foreign Secretary William Hague...

    Interesting New Poll Out ...

    Wow! Their guilt lies in other areas? Are you serious? No it doesn't, it lies right there in the same place with the Republicans' "You can't make me!" The comparison to little children is appropriate since liberals and children exhibit the same exact behavior when they want something. Exactly...

    Unions lose out .....again

    That's what happens when unions price themselves out of the global market.

    Interesting New Poll Out ...

    The only viable alternative is someone who isn't a left-wing liberal Democrat or a right-wing conservative Republican, since both of these extremes have shown themselves to be corrupt and inept. Both have a vision of fantasy which has never worked in reality. It won't be a name that comes from...

    Fantastic Friday Drawings!

    Yes, you will have to go through it again. I've had several videos that I've had to go through 3 and 4 times. The Heavy Equipment video was only twice, though. I will say that it's not as bad since the format change at Infinity.

    Interesting New Poll Out ...

    As the famous philosopher Lewis Black noted, the Democratic party is the Party of No Ideas, and the Republican party is the Party of Bad Ideas. They way it works is, a Republican stands up and says, "I've got a really bad idea!" and then a Democrat stands up and says, "And I can make it even...

    Is It Really True That Truckers Can't Agree? Let's Try.

    It's not in every city and morning in my travels, either. But that doesn't make my observances any less factual than yours. I have also observed, and confirmed (at least at PFJ locations) the trend of shower occupancy having risen dramatically in the hours between 3 AM and 5 AM, so much so...

    Is It Really True That Truckers Can't Agree? Let's Try.

    I dunno. Just 10 days ago or so when I was there, I read an article in the Philadelphia Inquirer where it talked about the increased driving time of morning rush hour in and around Philly specifically and the East Coast in general (it also mentioned Atlanta and Chicago, in addition to the major...

    Is It Really True That Truckers Can't Agree? Let's Try.

    Another unintended consequence. :D Driver turnover is up this quarter, and it's mainly because good drivers are exiting the business. Also, because more trucks are needed to haul the same freight, this also puts pressure on driver turnover.

    Is It Really True That Truckers Can't Agree? Let's Try.

    Absolutely not. I said you need to be wary of it, not averse to it. But like Dave said, the primary objective needs to be kept as simple as possible, if for no other reason that it can be thought through to guard against and possibly mitigate the unintended consequences. The more unintended...

    Is It Really True That Truckers Can't Agree? Let's Try.

    Largest crowd is correct, however you also need to be wary of the inevitable unintended consequences, of which there always are. The law of unintended consequences is what happens when a simple system tries to regulate a complex system. The political system is simple, it operates with...

    Ohio Man Still Legally Dead Despite Reappearing

    If they were still married when he disappeared, and then she had him declared dead, she would be a widow. At that point she could remarry, and collect his life insurance.

    Slushbusters? Where can I get them?

    It's odd that both wiper arms and the linkage would all go bad at the same time. The linkage pivot points need to be lubricated once in a while, but a pivot can still fail. The wiper arms are made of sintered material (not a solid piece of forged or drawn metal), but not to the same exacting...

    Ohio Man Still Legally Dead Despite Reappearing

    Neither. They got divorced before he disappeared. A woman, not his wife, had him declared dead for financial gain. And in doing so, deprived him of his unalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Imagine not having to worry about getting a driver's license. Can't...
