    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    Like I said, I'm here first and foremost to have fun. I certainly don't expect anyone to agree with anything I say, but if I'm going to subject people to reading it, the least I can do is make the attempt to give them something entertaining to read. Sometimes it works, sometimes not so much...

    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    Well, it indicates that I'm an interested observer and an active participant, who is very likely addicted to the Internet. But it certainly doesn't indicate that I would take the time to do as you have asserted. In any case, I', not sure why you want to turn this into something personal...

    Banned Member Reaches A New Low....

    Yeah, there's a lot of places that won't allow "throwaway" e-mail addresses from those and a few other domains. It really helps cut down on the riff-raff. I was going to suggest it, but now that you brought it up, the reason I didn't is twofold. One, many truckers simply don't have a permanent...

    Banned Member Reaches A New Low....

    That may be true, but do keep in mind that those who bought into the story rushed their caring and compassionate words to the aid of someone who had just committed assault and battery, in a bar fight. That story pushed all the right buttons as if it were a cattle prod, a distraught wife...

    Banned Member Reaches A New Low....

    Well, I can't believe that so many people bought that load of crap at face value. Nothing about it, nothing, had a ring of legitimacy to it. But even if it was legitimate, we only got one side of the story, and a second hand one at that. I responded to it in appropriately smart-aѕѕed fashion...

    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    One, there's a difference between noticing something, in making a simple observation, and in taking the time to detail and catalog a comparison amongst all the forums. The latter I have not done. The former is a no-brainer, easily observable condition for anyone who routinely clicks on "New...

    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    Considering the fact that the original question is not even remotely carrier specific, and is in fact a general forum question, one can conclude that it's because it affords you the opportunity of padding your posting count towards legitimacy with otherwise meaningless responses like this one...

    Why are general questions asked in carrier forums ?

    That's exactly why it's done, they only want responses from those who are with their carrier. It's very snotty and snooty, as if responses from those with other carriers are somehow irrelevant, that those who drive for other carriers aren't good enough to engage in conversation with, their...

    Disgusted Over Terrorists Being Moved...

    Conservatives view terrorism as an act of war, an attack on national sovereignty and in national security terms. Liberals view terrorism as purely a criminal act, period. It's a fundamental difference in philosophy. Both want justice done, but conservatives are more about getting it done (Git R...

    Who is Doug or Dougie?

    The fact that you would bring this up in a new thread in the General Expediter Forum says a lot more about you than you think. It screams volumes. Do you think the General Expediter Forum gives a rat's aѕѕ about some issue you have with "a couple people"? No, it doesn't. If someone mistakenly...

    First Reports on Ft. Hood

    Well, there's the legal definition of insane. Legally insane is a mechanism used to determine not guilt or innocence, but punishment. Being found not guilty by reason of insanity mitigates the act and alters the punishment, but the accused still did it. Incidentally, "not guilty" is not the same...

    FOX fact-checking Palin?

    Afraid of her? That's pretty funny. She has a 69% favorable rating with Republicans, which isn't all that surprising, and a 72% unfavorable rating with Democrats, equally unsurprising. But the Independents, the ones with the level head, the ones with the calm center, the ones who decide...

    FOX fact-checking Palin?

    Well, hey, Caribou Barbie was Miss Congeniality in the Miss Alaska beauty pageant, and she was a sportscaster in Alaska, reporting on important stuff like sled dog races and frozen snot flinging. As for executive experience, she is the Executive-In-Charge of padding her Wiki page. She's toxic...

    First Reports on Ft. Hood

    Oh, absolutely it fits. Did you read about his presentation as a final year resident at Walter Reed? Everyone else, as usual, gave presentations on things medical related. He went on for an hour and a half, complete with slides and stuff, about how allowing Muslims in the military is courting...

    Which synthetic oil??

    The Sprinter's Oil Quality Sensor (the ASSYST settings in the computer, actually) is indeed calibrated specifically to Mobile 1 0W-40 synthetic oil, but MB says any synthetic oil on The List will also work. Regardless of which synthetic you use, at RLENT said it will err on the side of caution...

    Drunk Drivers vs. Cell Phoners

    Studies show that driving while talking on a cell phone and driving while drunk each exhibit the same reaction times. There's no difference. Studies also show there to be very little difference between driving and talking on a hand-held device versus a hands-free device, except that a...

    First Reports on Ft. Hood

    Seung-Hui Cho, an English Major at Virginia Tech, wielding in fine Bruce Willis fashion a Walther P22 .22 caliber semi-automatic hand gun and a Glock 19 9mm semi-automatic hand gun, with no formal training whatsoever, killed 32 and wounded 23. He killed two people in a dorm room, went to the...

    Vanner Question - cold air blast

    Every time I drive along in the cold with the heater off, which of course means the vent is open for airflow, and I make a sharp turn, the sudden change in air pressure causes a sudden change in pressure within the HVAC duct work, which causes a rush of air to exit the air vents and blow in my...
