You betcha these people need to be remembered. They have been wanting to tax the Internet ever since it began. The one thing that allowed the Internet to grow like it did was the absence of taxes. Taxing it now will yield some revenue in the short term, but in the long term it will reduce both...

Don't EVER lease on with Panther then. Not even on a dare. You'll be at the cons well before they are open, so you set your alarm and go to sleep. They will give you a wake up call 3 hours before your delivery, to make sure you're up and ready to roll the 400 feet to the dock.

It can be (rightly) argued that the United States of America weren't actually united until all of the states had ratified the US Constitution, which happened March 4, 1789. Hanson and six other presidents were elected under the Articles of Confederation, which really didn't unite the states at...

Thanks, Ragman. I was beginning to lose my faith in humanity. :)

The same could be said for just a snotload of male expediters, but you nor anyone else here routinely calls them "boy expediter". What else other than a "boy" could I call an inexperienced, immature male person? Well, it depends on who and what he is. If he's 48 years old and the President of...

It's not a matter of me choosing a lens to color reality, it's a matter of seeing reality as it is, and who and where the phrase is most used, and for what purpose. Oh, people who use it have several defenses at the ready, one of the more common ones being the one used by you. When they say it...

Me? The EO Joker?

Orlando. Gonna spend the weekend digging holes in Coco Beach to plant transplanted turtle eggs from Tar Beach.

That's great, and while we should at every opportunity thank those who have served and are serving in the armed forces for the freedoms we have today, the 4th of July holiday is officially called Independence Day for a reason. It is the national holiday commemorating the signing and adoption of...

From With Flying Colors | CSP Daily News / Magazine | CSP Information Group, Inc. According to the FTC's complaint [necessitating the sale of 26 locations to Love's], the deal between Pilot and Flying J would have reduced competition for certain long-haul trucking fleets for which...

Pilot hasn't been friendly to expediters, but then again they aren't all that friendly to truckers in general, either. And there are a lot more general truckers than there are expediters, so an e-mail from a handful of expediters isn't likely to get them to change their business model. After...

The answer is that the phrase is used frequently in certain circles and on certain Web sites with their own agenda and outlook on things as a euphemism that people very badly want to use, but can't, so they dance around it with a phrase that doesn't really fit too well within the context of a 48...

The hits juuuust keep on comin'... Apple Inc. said Friday that it was "stunned" to find that its iPhones have for years been using a "totally wrong" formula to determine how many bars of signal strength they are getting. Stunned. Stunned I tell you. Apple said that's the reason...

I don't think such a blanket thanks has yet been given. I would do so myself, but I would be afraid to offend any inactive members who may at some later time become active members. So, rather than risk offending someone, I'll just thank Canada for everyone and everything, same as I blame them...

We did. It was buried deep way up there in Post #2.

I made a personal commitment to myself to change burned out light bulbs immediately upon their discovery, or as soon as safety and practicality permits. Thus, I have never had a personal crisis over a burned out light bulb. Nor am I likely to.

From the examples given, it seems you're looking not so much for examples of driver responsibilities, as driver irresponsibilities, perhaps a "To-Don't List". Properly securing freight so as to not incur a damage claim isn't an "off the wall" responsibility, it's a "basic" responsibility at...

Why do you keep calling him the "boy president"? That's rhetorical. I already know the answer.

Look at what they're doing as a team, divide it in half, and subtract 10%. There ya go.

Personally, I'm dead set against the government enacting laws that govern the wearing of a seat belt, but the above is disingenuous at best. If you're dead in the wreck, someone's still got to clean up the mess and hose you off the pavement, with or without your consent. Society says we help...
