I already did ask nicely. It was a simple, benign question, and even after you replied with a series of questions rather than an answer, as nicely as I know how I stated, "OK, now that I have answered all of your questions, I would appreciate you answering mine. If you prefer to answer it in a...

How can someone be so good at asking questions, yet be so bad at answering them? One simple question is all I asked, and you don't have the integrity to answer it. Sheesh. I didn't even get a memo on it. I'm smart.

Uhm, it's not a trucking show, and it's already being broadcast on 120 NPR stations. The show is called "On Point with Tom Ashbrook", and it's been on the air for several years, airing live from 10AM to noon and then repeated during the day. Topic of discussion include everything from breaking...

Boot me while yer at it. The birthers want emotion to trump reality, common sense and the law. They wanted so, so badly for that birth certificate to be a forgery, and for Obama to have been born outside the Unites States, because if he was born elsewhere then he would not be eligible for the...

Absolutely true, and it's a point I've made elsewhere in this thread. But the DOT defines how the random drug tests are to be performed (49 CFR Part 40), and the testing of hair ain't a part of it. For pre-employment screening, that's up to the carrier, but for anything else after you're hired...

Oh, OK, I didn't understand that because threads are taken off-topic every day, that makes it OK. All my friends are going to jump off a cliff now. Be right back. You want actual dates, times and post numbers? <snort> I've commented on it a few times, but as for some specific post that I could...

Crashing into a car and killing a family of 4 would fall under the category of probable cause, I'd think, for a urine test to see if he was under the influence at the time of the accident. If he tests positive, then there is enough probable cause to warrant a hair test, IMHO, but if he's not...

Sarcasm noted, and there should be more of that when threads go off-topic. But the reception that guy got was just rude. He asked straightforward questions, looking for input from truckers about the issues that concern truckers, and most of the responses came from people who quit reading after...

Why "wow"? Nearly every reply was off-topic.

All Terrain tires will generally have better treadwear than a highway tire, simply because the tread is usually a little tougher, and oftentimes more of it - 1/32 to 2/32 deeper - to begin with. They are certainly better for many types of road hazards, as well as in mud, rain and snow. You might...

Came across this a little bit ago. Makes for a real "sphincter pucker" moment. Truck Wreck

Well, Barry was honest and up front, as it turns out, from the very beginning regarding his birth certificate. Honesty I can respect. Avoidance and obfuscation, not so much. All I'm asking for is a simple answer to a simple question, be it here or in a PM, without having to first endure more...

Re: We want your input on a radio show on truckers. Yeah, he asked for input on several questions, and instead of getting what he asked for, he got a load of off-topic, "rude and inconsiderate" in response. Makes me proud to call myself an expediter. <snort> To echo Phil's statement, who...

If you put enough batteries in there you'll have a Volts Wagon.

I don't now why I'd be holding my breath. I can't think of a single reason why he wouldn't want to answer the question, either here or in a PM.

Exactly. Look what happened with the birth certificate. I do think that at least one genuine picture will be released (or leaked, intentionally or unintentionally) eventually. Unless, of course, al Qaeda demands the release. Then it'll never happen. Al Qaeda's been pretty quiet about it, tho...

What's to be made fun of is your original statement, which was without qualification of which resources were available to you at the time you made the statement, that you couldn't "figure out how to email the attachments to Lawrence." Taken as presented, it was ripe for being made fun of. It was...

I dunno if Waffle House really fits. I think Ihop does, tho. :D
