    Pearl Harbor Vets disrespected by Hawaii 5-0 crew

    I never said late, I said behind schedule. You could have been there 8 hours early, but on this load, at the time of unloading, for whatever reasons, you are 15 minutes behind schedule. I didn't ask about "likely", either. This is not a normal load, it is one they would, in fact, unload while...

    The death of common sense..

    Odd? Not at all. I think you're just a pervert trying to get glimpses of women trying on bras. I can relate.

    Saudi witch gets the axe

    Correct. Well, convicted of "committing the practice of witchcraft and sorcery". It's far more complicated than as if she was convicted of being a "Salem witch" or something just because she pulled a rabbit out of a hat or made David Copperfield disappear. Under Sharia Law, she wouldn't have...

    The Iranian Threat Evolves

    "...Barack Hussein Obama gives them a Christmas present in the form of our most technologically advanced drone." You know, if we weren't meddling over there with drones, that wouldn't have happened.

    Pearl Harbor Vets disrespected by Hawaii 5-0 crew

    Sounds good in the abstract. But let's say you are on a military base to make a WG delivery. You have one hour to unload your truck, and you are already 15 minutes behind schedule. If you fail to have the truck unloaded on time you will not get paid for the ridiculously overcompensated 2000 mile...

    Beginning of the End? Canada to withdraw from Kyoto Protocol

    The Kyoto Protocol is a joke, anyway. For Canada, if they remain a part of it, the 13.6 billion is in Kyoto fines, paid to the UN. In order to meet the emissions requirements, Canada would have to remove from all roadways "every car, truck, ATV, tractor, ambulance, police car," or, having to...

    Pearl Harbor Vets disrespected by Hawaii 5-0 crew

    Well, Tubbs works for ClearChannel, who thinks their **** don't stink in the first place. They think they can do whatever they want, and people should bow to their greatness in all circumstances, anyway, so it doesn't surprise me that he's offended, deeply I tell you, that everyone on the Island...

    The death of common sense..

    Perverts have nothing to do with it. Floor-to-ceiling doors and ceilings won't help, either. Many department stores have the doors designed specifically so you can't see out, but they can see in. Macy's is one of them, and they do not apologize for doing so. How Private Is That Dressing Room...

    You're hogging all the parking spaces at that Pilot.

    Saudi witch gets the axe

    Scamming people at $800 a pop, offering false medical cures where people died as a result of not getting real, actual medical treatment. She was found guilty and sentenced to death. I don't see the problem. Sounds like Texas, actually.

    The death of common sense..

    As Cheri has pointed out, dressing rooms are not even remotely the same as restrooms, or showers, where there's a communal space to get nekkid and gawk. These are little cubicles where you are in there by yourself. There is nothing inherently "male" or "female" about these wooden and plastic...

    Being allowed to park for extended periods on private property is a gift. Accept it as such, and be thankful.

    Parrot battery

    Do keep in mind what it says in the instructions that came with the headset: Following the above advice will greatly increase the overall battery life (like, it'll last 2 years instead of 1). It's advice that I did not follow, either. Mine worked great, lasted a long time between charges, and...

    Parrot battery

    Occasionally mine will become unresponsive (multi-function button doesn't do anything at all). When that happens, plugging the charger into it and then immediately unplugging it resets it, and it starts working again.

    Let's Talk About Tolls

    At one time, Kentucky had more miles of toll roads than any other state, nine Parkways consisting of over 650 miles reaching nearly all regions of the state (10 if you include the Kentucky Parkway, which is now unmarked as such and is the incorporated stretch of I-65 between Elizabethtown and...

    Parrot battery

    So far, mine is working the same as the original one did when new; extended talk times, extended times between charging. Although I am trying to be a bit better about keeping it on the charger when not using it. Haven't had it beep at me yet while talking.

    The "E" painting program started immediately after the announcement of the UltraOne Expedite card. Also, if you notice the locations which have signs designating "Employee Parking", the spaces do not have the "E" on them. Most people, security guards and uninformed employees included, will see...

    The Cain Mutiny

    Sorry. Been busy. On a load right now to Laredo, so this'll be quick, too. "This is MEDDLING??" Yes, on a ginormous scale. Our meddling put us in the position of having to some to the aid of Saudia Arabia and Kuwait. We should have never been in the position to be asked. Iran is none of our...

    The Cain Mutiny

    It's absolutely a stretch if you are trying to assert that a bunch of religious wackos are somehow equated to a military force. Apparently, you think 9 guys is a force. You also keep confusing a group of religious extremists with that of a nation state. You also don't have a clue as to what...
