    Greg, I am not "unsettled". I understand what you are saying and agree that things need cut. Just NOT in the order most are suggesting. You keep using the word, "deserve", I remove that word and use "EARN". Welfare bums have the "I deserve it" attitude. They don't EARN their way through...

    Obama sets out energy future for less dependency on oil

    We live in the United States, WE can do it all if we just put our minds to it. We CAN have clean air and drive Hummers. WE CAN have potholes for ducks to breed in AND private land. The government is in the way. People can LEARN what the environment is, how it works and LEARN to work WITH it...

    VA funding does not come out of the military funding. Cutting back on troops in Korea etc would have no effect. The money would NOT go to the VA it would go to some welfare bum. I would start by cutting the pay of elected officials (speaking of federal level right now) in half, starting today...

    Sarah Palin Is Definitely Not Done Whining About the Press

    Gee, Obama shows daily what a vile and evil man he is. He is almost PROUD of the way he is trashing our Constitution. HE is in the news everyday and they LOVE him! Why was HE not vetted? Why don't we devise a way, constitutional amendment, to vet these bums running for office so we don't get...

    The PEOPLE wrote that contract. It WAS written by the Congress, passed into LAW and SIGNED. IF ONE contract is not adhered too then NO contract is valid in the Country. It is NO different if you were to sign on with an owner for 60% including the FSC. After 5 years that owner changes his mind...

    Odyssey Dawn... odyssey gone wrong.

    It is two weeks a year , sometimes more for certain MOSs. When I got out I was in the inactive reserves for 3 years. My "unit" did get activated for about 6 months when there was a little war in the Middle East but I was never required to report. NO women were EVER required to report EXCEPT...

    Obama sets out energy future for less dependency on oil

    What viable alternitives? Windmills? It takes a windfarm of 240,000 to equal ONE nuke plants output. Not to mention the potential of removing too much energy from the atmosphere and totally disrupting it. Electric cars? We have brown outs now due to the lack of generating capability. No range...

    No one said desertion, they are getting out at the end of their current enlistments. It is their RIGHT to do so. We have NO draft. I am not quite sure what the lifetime commitment is now. When I got drafted it was 6 years, active, reserves, national guard or inactive reserves combined. NO...

    All of the people I speak of have NO commitment after this enlistment. When it is up, they are gone. Smart move on their part. There are few ways to avoid risking you life when our government uses you for their power. One MIGHT be able to find a legal way out but it is rare. Most just get...

    Air Leaks

    I use Scotts a lot. They do ALL of my reefer and APU work. I used the Freightliner because I thought it was the AMU that I replace every 6 months or so and the one I had was under warrenty with Freightliner. In fact, my truck goes into Scott's tomorrow for reefer maintenance, and a new water...

    Air Leaks

    Yep, in Monroe. I used to have a GOOD guy but his shop is closed and I don't have any idea what happened to him. I am still trying to find a shop, near the house, that I can use when we are home. The secondary gauge was dropping, rather fast, as I was driving down the road. The compressor...

    Air Leaks

    I did not keep them but I did look at them. They appeared corroded. I don't know if they could have been rebuilt or not. When I posted that last update I had not seen them yet. The air leaks seem to be gone. The gauges don't drop like a stone any more and the compressor is no longer running all...

    Nope, they will follow orders, IF they are legal. They will serve until their current enlistment is up. They took NO oath to defend the country, their oath is to Protect and Defend the Constitution of the United States, from all enemies both foreign AND domestic. It is NO a beef or...

    I could go on and on as well. Those first two "advisors" killed in Vietnam were from my unit, The Army Security Agency. History is NOT taught in our schools. I would LOVE to sit in on a high school or college lecture/class on the Cold War. My nephew used to tell me the most unbelievable BS he...

    The brokers don't care, FedEx won't bill them. That is that. At least it does not happen as much as it used to do. Keep in mind the three rules of this business: If FedEx screws up it is your fault and you lose money If the shipper/broker screws up it is your fault and you lose money...

    Air Leaks

    Update: They ended up having to replace the fan hub assembly. They said that there were some aluminum parts that had become "stuck" from corrosion and could not be taken apart. I have NO idea if I was ripped off. I know that parts can get messed up like that. I have dealt with things like that...

    ACLU - "Communism is the Goal"

    I have NO idea what you are or what you consider yourself. Shoot I don't even know WHO you are. You are just letters on a screen. I cannot put a face to the name. You could be from Venus for all I know. All I know is that you believe in VERY little of what I do, only base on what you write...
