    who's moderating the forum?

    For the record, I have no problem with the thread being locked (and I know who moved it, I just thought it was downright funny how fast this one got moved). I thought the "Terry bashing", which is a kind term, was way over the line, as things were started to be said that clearly weren't true. It...

    who's moderating the forum?

    You're a real party pooper, you know that? Beating the drum of the "big bad Fedex conspiracy", and making fun of the Snotty and Snooty in general, are two of my favorite things. Don't take that away from me. I beg you. All I'll be left with is religion and politics, and you know what a boring...

    who's moderating the forum?

    Glad I'm not the only one that picked up on that one. But it happens all the time. Mess with the purple and teal and incur their wrath. You have to be deemed worthy to make a comment about them in the first place, which is why you need permission to post in the various carrier forums (because it...

    Garmin Nuvi recall

    Even if you have one of those models, the likelihood of you having one of the recalls is still slim. You need to go to that Web site and enter your serial number to know for sure. I know two 260W owners, and one 765T owner who's serial numbers aren't part of the recall. The overheating is...

    Pig Roast on Sept 11

    Chickpea mash? I wouldn't think so. Ball it up and deep fry it and it's falafel. :D

    I guess Beck is REALLY getting to the Libs!!

    Likewise, the Huffington Post has ties to the Obama White House, raising the question of whether the White House is behind this targeting of Beck. Someone comes up with a clever marketing idea to get more viewers to their site, and he doesn't even get credit for it, Obama does. Yeah, Obama...

    Tea party cry ironic given history of ancestors

    Well, that kind of structured racism doesn't exist anymore. The whites and colored drinking fountains, sit at the back of the bus, you can't go to school here type stuff is long gone. Now it's more under the surface, an insidious simmering racism (in some people) that affects how people act...

    Pig Roast on Sept 11

    Hey, I was gonna ask if he was planning to have gyros (pulled pork pita). And to inquire as to whether the cake bonfire was to be a sugary and floury replica of the Twin Towers. You know, to see if it was a theme party. I'll bring the falafel. If I'm in the neighborhood I'll stop by. Sounds...

    Part IV: An Opposing Viewpoint

    Absolutely true. Worded that way, solely in the context of political correctness? No. They may be at odds and still be bigoted, tho. Racism is one example that is definitely at odds with political correctness and is still bigoted nonetheless. It's a classic technique to associate something...

    That's the most intelligent thing you've said in weeks. ♪ I'm a little bit country. ♪ ♪ I'm a little bit rock and roll. ♪ Next week on The Diva and Turtle Show - Engelbert Humperdinck and George Carlin.

    Part IV: An Opposing Viewpoint

    We're talking about specific issues, and you throw that out there? What's wrong with you? Ignorance can be fixed. Are you really and truly that bitter because what you have can't be fixed? I mean, even Forrest Gump realized what he was, yet he didn't run around taking pot shots at others because...

    Tea party cry ironic given history of ancestors

    Absolutely. By and large, the South is far less racist than other parts of the country. There are some areas of the South, where historical racial battles were fought, like Memphis, Montgomery, Selma, where there is still some animosity. Memphis is one of the most racist places I know. Well...

    van challenge

    Even if everyone did this, it would yield information that is exactly useless. If I were to post all of my numbers for last week, or the week before that, everyone would be wanting to come to my carrier (Panther). If I posted all of my numbers for 4 weeks ago, people would think I'm crazy for...

    Part IV: An Opposing Viewpoint

    Christians don't like Muslims, and Muslims don't like Christians. Demonization of the Muslim religion is absolutely what this brouhaha is all about. It's no different than the Muslims who try and demonize all westerners as evil infidels. The extremists on both sides see it as a classic 'us...

    TA /Bp Expedite king cards

    Two kinds of discounts. One is the cash discount that you get for paying with cash or cash equivalents, like Comdata. The other discount is the carrier discount, that you must use the Comdata card to get. At Panther, Comdata (not Panther) charges $1.50 per transaction to use the Comdata card...

    You can see online who many shower credits you have. You can also swipe the card at the kiosk and it'll tell you. After the first week and that initial glitch in the system I no longer keep up with this or that receipt and how many gallons I need for the next shower. I've got 4 showers on the...
