    How else should a person take the reference? In context for starters, which I just gave you. All you have to do is read and comprehend it, and then you'll know how to take it. Secondly, it would be best to take it in the actual context, and not the made up one. Edison never said "we're trying to...

    Democrats grow confident ahead of health care vote

    Your opening salvo in this thread was, "To all of those that oppose affordable care to all in this country..." which no one opposes, but is not what this bill provides, not even close. The famous Harvard study, which the Democrats in this fight keep beating people over the head with, showed...

    A Guys opinion

    Discrete or not, a kid's gotta eat. A boob-n-nipple on display while a baby is feeding wouldn't bother me at all. Then again, a boob-n-nipple on display while a kid isn't feeding wouldn't bother me much, either. You know how it is, once you've see one nipple, you wanna see 'em all.

    Your Sprinter Sleeper

    Yep. I had a plain white one, but I had 3 or 4 security guards ask for it back as I was leaving some place, thinking it was one of their loaners or something. Figured I'd get one that no one would want back. When I'm tooling around Cleveland, or especially Pittsburgh, I'll wear it to win...

    Heathcare Bill Passed

    While insurance companies will now be required to not cancel policies and to cover pre-existing conditions, the bill also lifts the restrictions on the insurance companies raising their premiums. The insurance companies will benefit most from this bill. Well, except for the pharmaceutical...

    Obumma Care

    It won't be within a week, but a lot of them will be on death's doorstep come November. I gotta give it up to Boehnner and his call for a Roll Call vote. Nice try, but it wasn't gonna happen. Pelosi even wanted this to be a "deem and pass" so that it could be passed without anyone having to...

    Yup, like Cheri said, deadhead will kill you out here on many levels. As for the percentage, in expediting with a van, you need to expect your deadhead to be between 20% and 30% of your loaded miles. If it's more than 30%, you're deadheading too much, chasing freight too much, likely moving when...

    I never said it was taken out of context. Since the video abruptly ends with the man in mid-sentence, it should be plainly evident that at best it's taken out of context, and at worst the context was deliberately omitted. However, your contention that is was about making history, and therefore...

    Democrats grow confident ahead of health care vote

    Obviously, David Espo nor you have actually read the CBO Report, where that $138 billion deficit cut is highly predicated on the most favorable economic growth figures, a perfect storm of good things happening over the next 10 years. Several scenarios are given, and the one with the $138 billion...

    Top 10 facts to know about health care reform

    My take on it is, if this doctor has this much time to go through the bill, line by line, and analyze all the ramifications, then he's not a very good doctor, certainly not one worth listening to.
