    Best Wifi

    OK. You just confused me when you were talking about it being unlimited and then 13 gigs, and mentioning the Overdrive. None of those are WiFi. They are all 3G/4G data connections to the Internet which uses your plan's data. It's not something I'm inclined to do, either. Even in a Sprinter. I'm...

    It doesn't put anyone in violation. On-Duty Driving is On-Duty Driving. By definition, a driver cannot have personal conveyance miles while operating a laden CMV.

    Best Wifi

    Don't confuse WiFi with cellphone data, they are very different. WiFi and cellphone data are simplty two different ways of accessing the Internet. If your Sprint (or Verizon or any other phone) is connected to a WiFi hotspot, you are not using any of your plan's data. In Helena, MT, for example...

    Question about 34 hr restart....

    DOT cops exist to make a stink out of it. That's what they do for a living. Everything is black and white, there is no gray area. Rules where different interpretations can be made, such as invoking the "spirit of the law," those interpretations never favor the driver. Interpretation for 395.8...

    I agree. Organic is what I prefer. One can say that about every government agency. And it'd be true.

    Avoid Deming, NM

    You're mixing two separate issues, the Fourth and Fifth Amendments. One is self-incrimination of the Fifth Amendment, for which there is no balance that can be achieved under any circumstances, and the issue of a warrantless search of the Fourth Amendment, for which the "reasonableness"...

    Girl Scout cookies illegal

    Actually, bleached, enriched processed flour is a creation of the government swill, spawned by the US Department of Agriculture (the same folks who gave us the bread and grains heavy Food Pyramid that made everyone fat). Wheat has essentially three layers: the bran (the outer shell where all...

    Girl Scout cookies illegal

    White, bleached, enriched flour is still recognized under the microscope and in the body. Hydrogenated oil, on the other hand, is a molecule that doesn't exist in nature, which is why the body doesn't know how to deal with

    Girl Scout cookies illegal

    Trans fats in an unnatural, invented food, with no nutritional value whatsoever. Throughout the 30s, 40s and 50s, Crisco and other trans fats were advertised as being healthier than beef tallow and butter. It was the government who allowed that advertising. It want until the 50s and 60s when it...

    That's the most ridiculous headline I've ever seen, with this thread title being a close second.

    You can keep your plan

    "If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what." Apparently, "period" and "no matter what" are ObamaCode for: "Some restrictions apply...

    Turnpike Turnarounds - Possible???

    On the Kansas Turnpike, if you make a U-Turn and exit at the same toll plaza you entered at, the Kansas Toll Authority charges a "per-minute" fare. The 18 hours thing still applies, where if the ticket is lost or the trip takes over 18 hours to complete, you must pay the highest possible...

    Obama Lied. Should He Be Impeached?

    Whether he lied or not is irrelevant to his supporters. This video is a wonderfully funny, and courageous illustration of that. The entire video is hilarious, but at the 3:45 mark when it gets to the "What Would It Take" (to lose your support) segment, it becomes golden.
