    Cargo Van/Sprinter 12 volt A/C

    12 volt air conditioners are expensive for the same reason 12 volt clothes dryers are expensive, and the same reason that a 1.7 cubic foot 12 volt refrigerator costs $600 while its 110 volt counterpart is about $100 - because they don't contain the same hardware as traditional 110 volt...

    Air Tabs

    Re: Air Tabs and some questions about them..... Savings is better fuel mileage. There are other benefits. With a van or any smaller vehicle, they give you better handling in the wind, especially when big truck passes you by. Because they reduce drag at the rear of the vehicle, they keep road...

    The Ghosts of WWII's Past

    Russian photographer Sergey Larenkov has taken old World War II photos and photoshopped them over the locations in present day. The scenes from places like Prague, Vienna, and Moscow are incredibly well done and a great way to appreciate history, to see just how war-torn it was in contrast with...

    One shirt for life

    Wearing the same shirt for life would be tough, considering how small my first shirt was.

    EO T-Shirts - Expo

    No matter what the shirt says, it's killer advertising for Lawrence and Co. and he's not going to prevent that from happening by limiting who gets one. :D

    new version of transflo

    What a nifty little piece of bloatware this thing is becoming. The last version's installer was 3.8MB and this one is 15.7MB. The transflo.now.exe resident program is quite the little memory hog, too. Uses up 200 MB of RAM. Who did the programming on this? Panther's IT department? Make sure you...

    The NEW Ultrone TA program is finally here!

    Yeah, if you go to the Web site and click over on the upper left on "Official Club Rules" there will be a link to a PDF file in the middle of the page that has all the details. Read through them and, you will see three main things. There are different sets of rules for Coach, Expediter and the...

    The Soak-the-Rich Catch-22

    Several years ago when I was living in Nashville, back when Opryland was a theme park before it became an outlet mall, the city decided since people were coming to town in droves for vacations and conventions that they would double the motel tax to get all that increased revenue. Instantly...

    State to citizens: No more petitions for you

    Ironically, everyone in all of the State Legislatures, the US Congress and the Office of the President and Vice President, were elected by We The People. We The People need a good talkin' to.

    Mexican Drug Cartel Allegedly Puts a Price on Arizona Sheriff's Head

    This is almost certainly nothing more than a "send this to everybody you know" e-mail done in text message fashion. I do find it interesting that the Mexican drug cartels are interested in a sheriff that's three counties away from Mexico.

    State to citizens: No more petitions for you

    It appears that someone in the Massachusetts Legislature needs to read up a bit on the Incorporation Doctrine, where the Supreme Court has incorporated all of the Bill of Rights to apply to all the states, except the Fifth Amendment right to an indictment by a grand jury, and the Seventh...

    Yet another murder by an illegal...

    Breaking the law doesn't make you a criminal unless you have actually been convicted of the crime. Otherwise, you're merely a suspected or accused criminal, and in this country you are innocent until proven guilty, no matter who you are. Also, being here illegally, if caught and convicted, is...

    Air Tabs

    Sure, but that would almost certainly damage the paint if you were to try and remove them, while the adhesive on Air Tabs will not. Might not make any difference on the roof of a box, tho. The Air Tab adhesive is actually very good, but the Air Tabs themselves are not pliable at all and will...

    Is Obama a muslim?

    What's his name? Regardless, if he was cleared and released, it doesn't seem likely that he was one of the "at LEAST two other gunman" that the unimpeachable source let on. What's his name? Ah, OK, so not another shooter. Seems to me a lot of those. So where are these "at LEAST two other gunman"...

    DOT Physical?

    I had always heard exactly what you posted, too. And I hadn't ever bothered to look it up. But it just so happens that I ran across that page the other day while looking for something else unrelated. The need to know this stuff, to protect ourselves, absolutely. :)

    van or truck

    If you want to drive for a fleet owner, you will make ZERO money if driving a cargo van, since cargo van revenue is small to begin with, and once you split that with an owner you'll be wondering why you ever got out of that big truck.

    Is Obama a muslim?

    Quite sure. There was, absolutely, without question, a lone gunman, as ballistics have proven, and not "at LEAST two other gunman" as you claimed to have gotten from an unimpeachable source (unless by "at LEAST two other gunman" you are now wanting to include the non-military police officers who...
