    Keeping warm @ night

    If you want to drive for a fleet owner, drive a straight truck. If you want to drive a cargo van, drive your own.

    Android Is Popular Because It’s Cheap, Not Because It’s Good

    That's very true. Everything we do with email these days can be traced directly to the Blackberry. Android caught on because it was cheap, but if the OS wasn't any good, it wouldn't still be here.

    Most parents 'lie to their children'

    Funny that the lie about carrots to cover up the Airborne Interceptor Radar was a total lie, but actually is kinda true. As well as carrots, beta-carotene can be found in abundance in dark green leafy vegetables like kale and spinach, and peaches, pumpkins, apricots, cantaloupe and other...

    Carrots do help. They play a very large role in improving night vision. It has to do with how the cones in the eyes deal with light and how quickly they can adjust to less light. In WWII American and RAF pilots were so stuffed with carrots that their skin turned orange. True.

    Android Is Popular Because It’s Cheap, Not Because It’s Good

    Plus, neither Android or Folgers is particularly associated with "gay" the way Apple and Starbucks are. :D

    Exactly. Common courtesy, treating others the way you want to be treated.

    Android Is Popular Because It’s Cheap, Not Because It’s Good

    Apple never has been about being the best, it's always been about the status. It's never been a question of, "Is Apple good enough for you?", but "Are you good enough for Apple?" Macheads, and now the more generic Appleheads, tend to be richer, more snootier and more snottier than everyone...

    Anti America

    Not even an overlook. The ordinance never applied to national flags in the first place, it's an advertising ordinance. It only applies within the scope of advertising.

    Anti America

    A message from the Mayor of West New York, NJ: The PDF of the ordinance can be found here. Noting all that, there is, as is usually the case, some politics at work here. The town’s mayor, Felix Roque is currently under federal indictment for computer hacking. The mayor's opponents, especially...

    Yeah, and to sleep during the day when it's a little warmer and stay awake and hang out in the truck stop all night. I'd slap him upside the head with a wet mackerel.

    Panther guys?

    All I know is, if you leave Panther on good terms and didn't cause any objectionable problems while you were there which Panther doesn't want to deal with again, they'll hire you back. If you caused problems or were difficult to deal with, they won't hire you back.

    why

    "Thats why if you notice my spelling is right its because my woman is correcting me before I submit the post." Also the usage of the word "right" implies a matter of opinion rather than something definitive and absolute, as in "correct". Either way works: "That's why, if you notice my...

    Racism and Obama

    You don't know what a militia is, do you? That's funny. Oh, I'm sure you think you know what it is, but anyone making such a statement clearly does not.

    That's true. In a Sprinter you can hear the noises before the tensioner fails, about 5 seconds worth. They're cheap when you buy them online (Europarts). Half the price of a dealer, and most of the time the dealer doesn't have one. If you have a spare serpentine belt, tensioner, and spare...

    Since your life kinda depends on it, I believe that that's something you should make an effort to find out. It will depend on the battery's capacity, number of amp hours drawn, and the number of amp hours the alternator is putting back into the battery (since as the battery becomes more and...
