Clearly, you have a reading comprehension problem. I just laid out the history of the legislation, where it came from and who introduced it. I also laid out what the legislation does, and it is absolutely NOT "so he can then order texas not to fry the guy." Sheesh. But don't worry. He'll be...

OK, we'll go with that, but in reality Panther is lucky if they have one van sitting outside JFK. Eleven in Detroit or Chicago, sure, but not JFK. :D No, the reality is that I did turn it down. No, I told Panther, "I'll take it IF..." I told them, in effect, "I refuse that load offer at my...

Wow. Are you really so defensive and protective of Ann Coulter that you can't see humor when it presents itself, and that anything remotely resembling a disparaging remark towards her will not be tolerated? How did it get from, "I'm pretty sure Ann Coulter used to be a dude," to her opinions...

While not ideal for reading, at least Cheri uses the readable dark blue Arial Black font rather than the light blue Comic Sans that someone else who will remain nameless uses. Even if the Comic Sans were bolded that would help a little. But a darker blue and bolded would be better if for some...

Like I said, I hover between 90% and 100% and I do just fine.

Yes, I did. Before Chef posted it, in fact. Do you seriously think my entire breadth of knowledge about this case and this subject comes solely from this one article? That's pretty funny. For one, I did a college dissertation on the combined 1961 "Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations" and...

Best post-verdict Tweet: Reporter 1: What happened? Reporter 2: Casey Anthony was found Not Guilty! Reporter 1: Who's that? Second Best Post-Verdict Tweet: NOAA Has issued a Category 5 Nancy Grace Warning for S. Florida. Residents are advised to take cover and wait out the destruction.

If you are unsure of doing it yourself, any good shade tree mechanic or independent mechanic shop can do it, especially if they're one that works on lots of different stuff, like RV's and other types of vehicles. Main thing is to know your amp requirements so you can properly size the battery...

If it's true that this is all about Barry's disdain for state's rights, then why did GW try to do the same thing? The EXACT same thing? It was Bush who prodded Congress into penning the very law they're working on now. (John, find this guy a load. Several of 'em. <snort> :D )

"You want me to start my 16 hour clock for $70? No thanks." Got a bonus to run it. :)

TB, have you read the article, know about the issues surrounding not just this case but many others? In just this one case, as the article points out, there have been appeals to the governor from top diplomats, judges, military officials, the UN, former and current governors around the country...

I'll reserve my comments for later. Seems to a a lot of gotcha's in there that Panther controls more than the drivers do. Look at miles divided by number of loads for each level and see the average length of each load required. Look at Miles divided by 26 weeks to get average miles per week...

The Standard plan ($69.96) covers only your RV and auto. The Platinum plan ($99.95) covers "any vehicle you drive". Emergency Road Service Platinum Benefits - RV Road Service - RoadSide Assistance However, in the fine print (and the not-so fine print) of the Member Brochure, it states that...

Not to be pedantic, but you talk of communications being a main ingredient, right after talking of "both partys" (sic) in the same sentence you talk about three parties: the carrier, the O/O, and the owner. "It only makes sense for them to work together...." who is "them"? The carrier and the...

That right there is one of the main reasons I don't drive a CMV. When I'm parked, the entire van is my home, including the driver's seat. In a CMV, if you sit in the seat you have to log it, even if you're just sitting there resting because it's comfortable, and if you've got a sleeper you can't...

Yeah, we do have the option to negotiate in vans. The problem is there a a bazillion vans, and they will offer it to each and every available van before they budge an inch on any extra money. It it's offered to you first and you ask for, say, an extra $50 or something, they will tell you they...

Yeah, but don't forget that the movie centered around a wrong decision by The Star Chamber, which called into question all of their other decisions.

I was in a position to watch every single day of the OJ trial. It's not something I'm particularly proud of, but it's one of the few trials I have seen from start to finish. If I were on the OJ jury, I'd have found him not guilty, too, even though I absolutely think (now and at the time) that he...

Well, it's not as bad as people try and make it out to be, but it can be bad, or worse, in certain situations. One of the problems with Panther being so big is that they have contracts with certain parties where Panther will not say no to a load. Smaller carriers can have that, too, of course...

Correct. And it's quite literally politically correct to call them Hispanics, rather than lump all of them into Mexican. It was a joke, as many people think all people who look Mexican are from Mexico. But the term is a PC term, at least in how it is generally used in the US. People don't get...
