    TA fuel sucks?

    I wonder which refineries are putting out the cut rate fuel for the corner stores to buy?

    Deer Are Pests

    Deer ain't exactly fond of you and your truck, either.

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    I don't remember the exact quote, but it's a paraphrasing of something that Mark Twain wrote. I think it's funny, too, but one time a woman got all mad at me when I said it, because "God never gets tired!" she said, and then told me I was disrespecting God. You should have seen her reaction when...

    Deer Guards

    Ever priced an infra red system? It's ridiculous.

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    No, Pagans shouldn't be offended at Christianity, any more than Christians should be offended at Paganism. If anyone is offended by another's religious beliefs, then they should probably take a long, hard look at their own. "Man is a Religious Animal. He is the only Religious Animal. He is the...

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    Even though I am normally morally opposed to explaining humor, right here is where 100% of the inspiration for that last sentence came from: My "new religion" was an absurdity, done on purpose for the humor, and then I took the above and twisted it around to make it equally absurd, and then...

    Sprinter Owners...

    Truck stops, mostly. Every now and then one of them will have it on special, and I'll stock up. The Iowa 80 Truck Stop generally has the best prices I've seen, and when I pass through there I'll grab several bottles.

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    And it was also funny, and you know it. Nothing, not even religion, is so sacred that it can't be made fun of. But, why is it that you can call me and my new religion disrespectful, yet I can't make fun of yours? I had quite the little reply typed up, but I deleted it in favor of once again...

    Expediters NOT welcomed

    If you've been with Panther long enough, you refer to it as a different kind of "pen". :D

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    Just because Christianity is involved (even though I didn't mention it) doesn't mean it's disrespectful. It never ceases to amaze me how... never mind.

    Thanks for the headsup. I do like Quiznos. :)

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    Thank you for making my point. You can point at the charred skeletal remains of Touchdown Jesus as a glaring example of silly lookin' is as silly lookin' does. Some don't think it's silly lookin', but some do. Both are equally valid opinions, however. Like you said, it's a matter of personal choice.

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    No one is mocking religion here, it is the nonsensical, foolish and comical that is being mocked. Again, just because it involves religion doesn't mean it's off limits. If a Nativity scene is created to look garish, gaudy, ridiculous and comical and totally irreverent, yes, absolutely...

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    Sorry Dreamer, you're dreamin'. People don't mock Al Sharpton because he's black, they mock him because he's a court jester, a bona fide fool. When people set themselves up to look nonsensical, foolish and comical, they set themselves up to be mocked. When Christians set themselves up to look...

    Report: Obama said 'I Am a Muslim'

    Obama is a politician, which means he's a professional liar. He's whatever religion that suits him best at the time. A lot of people are like that. A couple of weeks ago a group of three young ladies walked across the front yard up to where I was sitting on the front porch of the house. They...

    barry Gives Part of Arizona Back to Mexico

    It was also said a long time ago that democracy ends as soon as the have-nots come to the realization that they can vote themselves "free stuff".

    "Touchdown Jesus" Burns....

    After they rebuild it, instead of calling it "Touchdown Jesus" or whatever, maybe they should call it "What second commandment? Jesus"

    Qualcomm Charges

    Point well taken, and I understand it. My point is, it's not about the money, it's the principle of the thing. If they would be honest about it, that would be different. Instead, they come up with all kinds of invented and way outdated crap to justify it. What really chaps my aѕѕ is that we at...

    Flying J no Showers in future

    Mine's a 2005. The book says it's a 26.4 gallon (100 liters), but it also says Including Reserve Fuel "of about" 2.8 gallons (10.5 liters). Some would look at that and think it's 26.4 gallons, and then there's another 2.8 gallon in reserve. They would be wrong. When the little orange triangle...

    solo sprinter friendly company

    If there was an answer to that question, then nearly every solo Sprinter would be driving for them. All of the major carriers can keep a solo Sprinter busy. None of them keep a solo Sprinter busy enough. YMMV
