When I used to go to church they mostly talked about Jesus and stuff.

For heat the most cost effective and efficient method is an Espar heater. It's between $1500 and $2000 up front depending on the model you get, but in the long run it's by far the most cost effective method of keeping warm. They have models for gas or diesel. As for a generator, it depends on...

More than 3 years with Panther and this is the very first I've heard of a 1-year jacket. That's a little surprising, you know, since 2008 was the Year of Communication and all. Then again, there's a note on the Driver Web from 12/9 that says new Driver Council Meeting Minutes from 12/2 have been...

Most of the bigger carriers, like Panther, want a vehicle less than 5 years old when it's brought on. After that, as long as it runs well enough and isn't costing them money for service failures or lots of swaps due to mechanical failures, it won't matter (unless it looks like crap). You can do...

All I'm saying is, the Big Bang and Creationism aren't mutually exclusive. One doesn't discount the other, not by a long shot.

I wouldn't have given him a penny. I'd have let him hook me up, with me still in the vehicle, and then called it in to the police. Can't tow a vehicle with someone in it. If the vehicle can be legally driven (no expired tags or anything like that), then in nearly every jurisdiction in the...

Well, it's what I said, but it's not really what I meant. Kinda screwed the pooch with a wrong word or two, there, sorry. Wrote it up too quickly and had other things going on, and was on the phone. I used "gives" instead of "limits". What I meant to say was... "The Interstate Commerce Clause...

There are two loopholes, well, three, really, that Dems are clinging to, the Interstate Commerce thing, the Taking Clause, and the tax laws. The Interstate Commerce Clause (under Raich, Lopez and US v. Morris) gives Congress the power to regulate anything that has a "substantial effect" on...

It's not hard to find disturbing information on the Internet. That site is particularly disturbing because it's run by people who think Swine Flue and Mexican earthquakes were orchestrated by Obama as a distraction. And people read it, and believe it.

In the "best interest" of whatever they wish to claim, doesn't change the fact that if this bill becomes law, the government will, for the first time ever, have the power to require the purchase of goods or services as a requirement for lawful residence in the United States. Every public...

I'm enveloped in the picturesque and fragrant Odessa, TX. If Kodak still made film, and they made it with scratch-n-sniff, it'd be a Kodak Moment.

Because the "kick 'em out" policy seemed incongruous with TA's corporate policy, that was actually my first question to the Feedback Line, whether those TA's were corporate or franchised. If they were franchised I can understand the difference in policy. For that matter, I can understand the...

Some good news. After being kicked off the lot 6 or 7 times, sometimes within minutes of arriving, on Saturday morning (12/19/09) I called the TA Feedback Line on another issue (problem with the Web site and requesting a new card), but as long as I had them on the line I figured I'd inquire as...

The CDG.org does publish one. View worldwide or by region. BTW, "Revolutionary" might be a bit strong, since the Newton MessagePad was an unabashed attempt to duplicate Psion's success with their PDA's. Fully 12 years before Sculley introduced the Newton (and coined the PDA term), Psion defined...

They have done that in Canada in preparation for the Olympics, you know, all those Europeans coming in with GMS phones, they nearly had to. Basically, they still have the CDMA base, with an HSPA layer on top of it. The different technologies are all about the shared use of a radio frequency...

Just for the record, he really never got a pass for his crimes. No unusually light sentences or anything like that. A couple of his arrests ended up in him being found not guilty, but all the others he pleaded guilty to avoid jail time (or to lessen jail time in one case where 88 days of a 90...

I like to hang out on Crump Blvd, a mile or so west of Lamar. Just park right there on the street. Nobody will bother ya. Sometimes I crack myself up. :D

Digging through the news archives... a story that ran in USA Today a week or so before the debut of the iPhone... The original exclusive deal between Apple and AT&T was through 2009 (the end of this year), at which time Apple could begin offering the phone to other carriers. When the iPhone 3G...

Yes, arrests for drugs, drunk driving and weapons charges, plus being in a motel room and drinking with underage girls. But, by all accounts (except yours) he had left that life behind him and was well on his way to turning his life around. "Devoted to he fiance?" Yes. He never cheated on...
