    Good luck in Laredo. We avoid that area like the plague. We are sitting in the lot of our pick up, heading for NY IF it goes. I have a funny feeling there may by a problem. Only time will tell. At least it is COOL here. It is 50 right now. It was wonderful not having to run ANY AC to keep cool

    Department of Transportation Drops Controversial Proposal

    It is good that they dropped it. I did find one thing very odd in that article. The Senators expressed their opposition in that letter to DOT. They SHOULD have said, get rid of it. Congress should not ask or suggest that regulations be changed or dropped. Congress should have TOLD them to...

    The Arrogance of Authority

    Why do I want to walk in someone's shoes? They likely don't fit and I don't want their fungus.

    Is this an infringement on us and illegals rights?

    When I worked for the federal government I was subject to random drug testing. I was also subject to random polygraph tests and security updates every so many years. I also WORKED for the money I made. NO FREEBIES. Welfare is a gift, free, unearned money for BASIC NEEDS ONLY. No drugs...

    NY-NJ Truck Tolls to Double

    Any bets rates won't reflect this? Any bets people keep taking loads into that area at $1.30 per mile? Why in the world are they pulling off 6 BILLION dollars off the toll money to rebuild the World Trade Center? That is just SO WRONG! I understand improvements or rebuilding bridges or roads but...

    Obama is "Unpatriotic"

    I don't like EOBR's because I have to pay for them, they are an intrusion, they are used to enforce bad HOS laws and I have to pay for them in Mexican trucks as well as my own. I have always said that WE, the PEOPLE are to blame for the mess we are in. WE have not controlled congress, we...

    Obama is "Unpatriotic"

    "Layout, the dot can't give up the regulation of interstate trucking - it is their job." They should ONLY have the power to suggest regulation. I pay my congressman and senators to represent me. I expect THEM and ONLY them to have the power of making law.

    I have no idea, I do know that neither NC or TN are not even in the running. TN is water impaired, a few shallow rivers, very few natural lakes and some man made ones. NC has little to offer on the fresh water side. A few man made lakes and shallow rivers. Few natural lakes. They do have salt...

    I don't know about retirement. I don't believe that it has anything to do with boat building. I do know that Michigan has more boats registered that any other state in the union. Even more than Alaska or Florida. I would LOVE to be able to retire in Michigan. Other than the government I love...

    Obama is "Unpatriotic"

    Well Greg, there are still people that believe that Obama is the savior. There are still people who believe that the ReBumLiCans are the answer, just as there are people who believe that the Dumb-O-Crats are. I agree, DOT is not going to give up it's power to regulate. The ONLY way to remove...

    I wonder why SO MANY boat builders are in TN now? Tracker, G3, Sea Ray, Triton, Lowe and maybe more. Lower taxes? Lower wages? There has to be some reason. The TOTAL tax burden, local, schools, state and Federal should NEVER exceed 25% of a persons wages. We will not have a...

    No tax on labor. No tax on building personal wealth. NO capitol gains, no "death taxes" I prefer consumption taxes IF they are low. We can argue about rates and what should or should not be taxed in another thread sometime. Not that it matters. Washington will NEVER give up the power that the...

    Interesting Article

    I agree Greg, I find it funny when ANYONE supports our current speaker, just as I found it sick when they supported our last one. I claim nothing on punctuation, I did not write it.

    Obama is "Unpatriotic"

    Greg, IF you choose to use left and right, fine. I then contend that we have NO right wing or even center in our major parties. Only far left and no quite so are left. What this little thing DID show is that Obama is just another lying dog. ANYONE who would believe him is none to bright...

    "Hiring someone to cut your lawn is a temporary fix. Buying a boat only helps so many people and in fact isn't what could help in the long term." I have hiring someone to cut my lawn for 6 years now. That is hardly temporary. One person buying a boat is not enough, 50,000 new boats helps a...

    Al-qaeda's no.2 killed

    IF the United States went away. IF the Jewish state never existed, NOTHING would change. This fight would go on. Only an innocent child would believe otherwise. This is NOT about our policy or other country's. This IS about a evil group of people who believe that power is gained through terror...
