HEY!!! I found it!!!!!!!!!!! I had saved it in my bookmarks. This is how I was taught and how I see it. I see no difference between Hitler and Stalin, their ideas, methods or goals. Obama is right, er, left in there with them!! This is more like what I was basing that one post on. The American...

I am having a hard time finding that post since I do not remember who posted it, when it was posted or in what forum. Other than that..............

Keep in mind that I did NOT go to public school until the tenth grade. I went to private school. Far different values and education ideals. I was taught self-suffiency until I went to public school where I was taught the "find a good job and be a drone" way of life. I hated that. Still do. Not...

That is not what I was taught in school. I was taught along the lines of a very good video that was once posted in here. I will look it up later. Have to run to the store first. The fascism to the far right was an attempt by marxists to distance themselves from Nazi Germany. What I was...

The Lake Erie walleye fishery is just flat out amazing!! :D

Here a couple of picture of just some of the "toys" I used to play with while in the army. This was a "Flair 9" HF antenna field located on the Air Force Base in Misawa, Japan. It was 1500' in diameter and '"highly" directional. The night shot is one of my favorites. It was taken while I was...

That is the only thing that you are not whinning about!! LOL!! I am fired up again today!! Got nuthin else worth while to do!! :p

A picture of a friends catch from this morning. I am not sure where he was fishing but he normally fishes on the Michigan/Ohio line on Lake Erie. A fine supper in the making to say the least!! Let us hope that this Lake stays in the condition that it is in and that this kind of fishing is always...

I am not opposed to "reasonable" safety regulations. First off, they must be equally applied to both private and public employment. The regulation must be based on sound science not based on providing an "edge" for one company or allowing for a government monopoly. Fines and enforcement have to...

Yes, it is a regulated industry. I understand, sort of, the need for that. I do believe, however, that the kind of regulation being talked about here is beyond the scope of what should be regulated. This has nothing to do with safety. This is demanding what can and cannot be charged for. What in...

I kinda figured as I re-read the thing. I know nothing about that end of the business so I will just go away quietly. :o

Yes, Greg, he does seem to be leaning more towards fascism. It is an amazing mix of all things that are bad. He is taking the worst and combining them into a real horror. The final take over will use force, it may come sooner than many thing. Like a trumped up oil shortage, or a prolonged...

Now that just might work!! You would have to get permission from his current carrier though, or "turn" him and take his sprinter on!! :p Your sense of humor bodes well for your business.

I might have not asked a very important question, van or straight truck? No matter what kind of truck, under DOT logging laws or not, being asked to unplug the Clink should be raising all kinds of red flags.

That carrier should be named in here if that story can be confirmed. (not doubting it, it is just always a good idea to double check) He should not only leave that carrier but he should also report that incident to the proper officials. That is beyond micromanagement and into criminal activity...

I think that today's economy has us all looking at the entire business in a different light. Carriers, fleet owners and anyone can get "too big for their britches" and that is when they are ripe for the picking. I am not saying that is happening, but it could be. Nothing is new under the sun...

It is now officially getting silly. This government is without a doubt now in the process of a total takeover of the economy. It started decades ago with socialist ideas like the minimum wage. The idea that government knows better as to what to charge for a product, what labor is worth on a...

I do believe that the extranet could and should be used for real time work. The truck counts should include ALL information, like mentioned above. Not only temp controlled or TVAL but things like DOD clearances, ART team etc.

That was a well written piece, OVM, but in all fairness, we cannot JUST blame Obama. Without a doubt he has accelerated a process that has been going on for decades. He does not even try to hide the fact that he is now completing the change from a market economy to one of pure marxism. Again...

It hurt just watching them!! I noticed a couple in very interesting things compared to today's entertainers. They were by no means fat, but, they were not skinny. They looked healthy compared to many of today's stick people. The second thing is that they did not have to revert to overtly sexual...
