I like this new cheerleading method from the Snarling Nazi Rottweiler School of Cheerleading. It's certainly different. Ve have vays... to make you liek... ze kompanie!

It may very well go up. Now that so many people's Unemployment Benefits have run out, and people are depressed about that, we have a truly insane number of people who are suddenly filing for Social Security Mental Disability coverage.

Most places like Walmart and the quick oil changes won't be able to accommodate a Sprinter, even the places where they have an oil change pit and you just drive through, no lift. The door opening just isn't tall enough. If you have the oil and the filter, then any dealer can do it. So can the...

Yeah, "whatever" meaning "whatever you want to do for a living, including being a self-employed expediter". I think Pelosi is largely insane and full of crap, but she's not nearly as bad as that article's headline. "You want to be a photographer or a writer or a musician, whatever -- an...

40 minutes before the pickup time, Dispatch calls and tells me that, unless I really want it, they'll take me off that load and look for something better. Says they'll get someone local to do that. OK, sure. Couple hours later, called and said there's not much, but they have one Monday at 1300...

I'm a baseball guy, so XM is worth every penny to me.

Yeah, but they paid me 100% of the load. That means they needed it covered, probably for an important customer (and aren't they all?), and if they're going to pay me 100%, the least I can do is give 100% in return.

Well, they called me with that choice weekend load we were talking about. Picks up "next door" to the yard, Sat 9AM, delivers Monday in, ta-da!... Port Huron. <snort> It's Turtle Time! ......................Can't Touch This

You can do that. If you don't have them, go to Autozone or Walmart Best Buy and get a $5 pair of those radio puller thingies. The ones you want look like these: Report the radio's serial number here. Or call a dealer's Service Desk and give it to them. In the meantime, you could have...

I fully understand, especially because of Ft. Lewis. I saw a piece on the news the other day about several recent, rather odd and disturbing happenings that stem from (or are at least connected to) people from there. Even that guy who killed the park ranger recently was from there. It's really...

Good. But you are talking about the misuse. The fact that they don't want to fix them is a gross misuse of those troops. It's a continuation of the misuse. It's all connected. Calm down. It's a metaphor. So is weekend warrior. And it's not even a derogatory one. You mean like the misuse of...

Layout, I'm not even talking about the nature of service, you are. I'm talking about the nature of the government using their tin soldiers irresponsibly, and the "REAL problem" that you started this thread for is a direct result of that irresponsibility. Hawk used the term, and a few people lost...

Yes, playing. Part-time is part-time, regardless of what it is, whether it's being a solder, being an expediter, or whatever else you can think of. Playing at being a soldier gives it no special status. Just because you're getting killed or maimed while doing doesn't make it a full-time...

Frankly, I'd just replace the radio. It'll be quicker and easier. But, what year Sprinter, and what's the last 8 of the VIN?

Very few National Guardsmen are full-time soldiers. The rest are civilians playing at being soldiers. I don't know if that's derogatory or not, and in this day and age where everything seems offensive to somebody, it probably is, but it is also, nevertheless, the reality. But the term has...

Most? Probably not. I've never done a head count, but most of the vans I see don't have a CB. A significant percentage do, though. I have one. It's certainly not a necessity, and even if you don't use it very often, it's a valuable tool to have.

Depends on what time you put down as your ETA at the border. They generally won't even look at it until about an hour before the time you tell them you'll be there. Put down s way early time to get it cleared quicker.
