No, using it at the border, especially for vehicles that cross the border, I don't have a problem with. No else is likely to, either. They can search the entire vehicle by going in it and ripping everything out. The law says they can do that. Using xrays to quickly scan the vehicle is a good...

Special requirements? You mean like saying that you own a pet and pinkie promise cross your heart and hope to die that you won't post anything negative or make fun of how ugly someone's dog or cat or ferret is because every picture of every pet is just to-die-for precious? What if you own a pet...

Exactly. It would be one thing if they peered into the van or truck and saw people, and those people were illegals, and every time they peered into a truck or van and saw people that those people were illegals, every single time, but all it takes is once where those people aren't illegals for it...

Got another one for you to think about. I've known that they were using these in both Afghanistan and Iraq, but had no idea they had been deployed on the streets here. The same full-body scanners that are used at airports are now mobile, inside Sprinter box truck chassis vans and roaming the...

More states, bigger news, bigger illusion that they're hard at work.

Not just TV. Back when I was a manager at Fuddruckers, I would sometimes don the hard hat and lab coat and spend time in the butcher shop deboning a cow. Fuddruckers got their meat as hanging forequarters rather than pre-ground and frozen. Mostly it's just straightforward deboning, then grind...

"just the simple necessites as I receive at home, shower,toilet,automatic,fridge, if that's alot of toys then I'm sorry." That's a lot of toys. Being out on the road is not the same as being at home. That's why it's called being out on the road. There are some people out here who carry all the...

Big news, Feds are hard at work rounding up illegals, in the Midwest, where it's a significant problem.

Not a thing, if you're a Panther dispatcher who can get someone in a cargo van to run it as offered, which is for $50 because it's a mini. Hey, you get a First Out at delivery! carrot. <snort> Well, you aren't likely to see anything like that in a van, but I've negotiated much higher rates for...

Like it or not, good or bad, TV is a part of our life, society and culture. And it should not be so easily dismissed as irrelevant fantasy, any more than one should dismiss the reading of books of fiction as irrelevant fantasy. It's not. People liked to talk about the "rock star" following of...

Short loads are a very different animal when you have your own authority and are bidding on them yourself, as compared to someone leased on to a carrier where the pay is in direct proportion to the miles, long or short. It's one thing to bid on, and get, a 150 mile run for $300, but it's quite...

Well, I have that, too. :D I'm just pointing out the fallacy of illusory correlations (and hindsight bias), where something happens and people look for a quick and easy reason for it, of seeing the relationship one expects in a set of data or an event even when no such relationship exists...

Four weeks ago I had a really crappy week. But in the three weeks since, it's been way better than normal. Not only that, but so far this year has been better for me than this time last year. The only conclusion that can be reached from that is that the Obama Stimulus Plan is working, since...

I don't recall liberals ever saying people shouldn't have freedom of religion. There is no freedom of religion in the Muslim world. Freedom of religion is a relatively new concept, and one that is not ll that widely practiced. Most countries have an official religion, actually. Many other...

No, not at all. It's TV, not real life, right? So that couldn't happen. I'm just saying. You can bury your head in the sand of rest, relaxation and ignorance, all the while lamenting on how things should be the way they used to be and remaining oblivious to how they really are now, but that...

It's kind of like those who aren't against the banning of certain types of guns, because those types of guns aren't the kind they own. "They're banning assault rifles, not shotguns!" Yet that's the slippery slope to the open door that lets them eventually come after the types of guns you do own.

REAL LIFE TV IS NOT REAL LIFE

No wife or kids, but he misses his mommy.

He's got an M.D. from Harvard. Psychiatry, tho. :rolleyes:

Well, I'm convinced. The pretty pie chart did it. The prevailing attitude of the mob mentality is more than reason enough for me to hate Muslims now. All of them, even the nice ones. Die Muslims die.
