I was not aware that ALGORE had said that one. I just said it to poke fun at myself there for making it easy for others to poke fun at me. Every one knows that a leapord cannot change it's stripes just as a zebra cannot change it's spots!! :rolleyes: Yes, OVM, I would be buying the steaks and...

Al Gore? What did I miss? I don't think I was quoting anyone. Layoutshooter

This is nothing new for Africa. The line "The shores of Tripoli" in the Marines Hymn is in reference to the First Barbary wars fought to protect merchant shipping off the shores of North Africa. You just can't make a leapord change it's stripes!! Layoutshooter

Our Navy Seals did a FINE job today, a VERY FINE job. Now, what we need to do, is park a WW2 type battlewagon just off shore and wipe out those pirate villages. Just make them go away. POOF!!! No more. Gone. NADA. Smoke. :D You can bet your boots that the more than $100 million that these thugs...

I shall do that. I will say, however, that my milage seems to hold fairly steady with loads up to around 4000lbs, that is where I normally start to see the drop off start. At 1000 and the reefer running I rarely see a change. Layoutshooter

I paid 34.95 each at the TA in Monroe, MI. I have seen them cheaper but I was home and wanted to get it done. If what I saw on this run continues they will pay for themselfs very quickly. Layoutshooter

Nothing like good ole "Depression" style re-cycling there Turtle. My mom used to save the "waxed paper" from the inside of cereal boxes when the ceral was gone and use it to wrap our mashed potato sandwhiches for our school lunches. Layoutshooter

This is a very serious problem. Many years some southern good ole boys were live trapping racoons and shipping them up to PA so some nothern good ole boys could chase them. It started a major rabies outbreak in PA. They should just hand those guys if they catch em. Layoutshooter

We put on a set of the "ECO" mud flaps, the ones that are not solid but allow air to pass through them. We ran a load over the past 3 days, Ohio to CA. It was a very light load, 8lbs, so it may not be the best test but it seams that it has a pretty big affect on you MPG. We had been running in...

The CLC is just one of many tools we use, sometimes it pays and sometimes not. We try to look at many options within the time we have to look. We then take the best deal. Layoutshooter

I have been talking with people at FedEx to see if we could get the "down time" coverage from Protective increased. I don't want a re-run of last years mess with my personal hurricane disaster. Protective is not interested in making any options available. That time of year will be upon us...

WOW, and we are not there!! Too bad. If you get the chance try the Monroe Bar and Grill on Monroe street in Monroe. Big lot out back and maybe parking of side streets or take a cab from the truck stop. Good food, nothing fancy. Fair prices and the portions are huge!! You could split a meal or...

I have not had the chance to look yet, we are in CA now, don't even know if they allow them here. Layoutshooter

We just pulled into the Garlic Farm in Gilroy, CA (sorry to say) Not the nicest truck stop on the face of the earth but only 22 miles out from our Monday delivery in San Jose. Praying for a quick exit from the granola state. Layoutshooter

Start with "janes" military books. Look up US missile launch sites. We only have two that can launch orbital launches. Kennedy, handles all geo-syncronous launches and Vandenburg Air Force Base, which handles all polar orbit launches. Watch thier launch scheduals. They will give dates and the...

We often stay at Mrs. Layoutshooter's mom's place. If she is out of town we go fishing. We go to either the Seminole Travel Center or a free spot we know across the road. Seminole is located on the East side of US27 where it crosses Griffen road. They do charge to park but it is guarded. They...

Never mind Rocket. This is just a waste of your time and mine. You don't care to do the research on these subjects to KNOW what is correct when you go into the voting booth. You choose to listen to and acecpt the word of polititions, who are known to "fib" everyonce in a while. The facts are not...

I did not think I was ranting, seems to me I did everything but name names, which I won't do. You seem to be willing to turn over you responsibility to the network news shows and internet sorces. I guess doing the work to KNOW what is going on is not important. I will go to my grave knowning I...

Homework done yet? Did you even start? Guess being informed does not really matter. Layoutshooter
