    Wow what a great year!

    OHHH, you know I think that the problems of the world can be solved by getting rid of the 'reporter' and just tell us the truth, no filtering, no opinion - just the truth.

    US State Department Succumbs to Homosexual Pressur

    RE: US State Department Succumbs toI Homosexual P Whoa Cheri, I have to take issue with your statement: "I'm not sure whether you're implying that homosexuality is closely related to pedophilia, but if you are: that is the simply baseless fear mongering ignorance. The incidence of heterosexual...

    U.S helped Saddam get to the top!

    Duh! There is a good book from a german writer about Saddam. It was written in the late 80's and maybe out of print now. I read it back in the 90's and was amazed that at what he did during the Iraq/Iran war. Well anyway it maps out his rise in power and the connections he made on the way up...

    VICTIMS OF OUR OWN SUCCESS ??

    OntarioVanMan Man look around, rail is now moving toward the orignal concept of trucking/rail. not big now but I see a future for rail especialy when you get less consumption per ton mile with rail than trucks.

    Transfering load truck to truck

    Maybe I am tired of all the fun on New Years eve but I would have told dispatch $1.25 (my minimal cost) all miles, not $1.02 simply because the offer for the other team was just that, an offer and I agree with 9114 Fish. Dispatch is doing the original truck a favor without having a real reason...

    VICTIMS OF OUR OWN SUCCESS ??

    Phil said;"Without trucks, none of that would be possible." Come on, without trucks we would have a different manner of transport of goods. Just as we evolved from using hand carts and carts drawn by horses to canals and river boats to rail to aircraft, if trucks were not the predomient means...

    Your Dream Truck

    I don’t mean to be an a** about things but lets really not hear about these trucks that are expensive builds that don’t do anything but feed egos. I am not picking on any one person but to spend $150k to $whatever for most of us is not and never will be a doable task. I fully understand...

    China automaker to build cars for Chrysler

    I think you got the point, but I got to add the myth of a big three died when Chrysler was taken over by Daimler-Benz and the shift from auburn hills to Germany for the world headquarters of the parent corporation was evident.

    China automaker to build cars for Chrysler

    OK I got to ask, where is the UAW? why isn't there a general strike being called? Shut down D-C NA to make a point! Also did you know that D-C is a foreign car company?

    RE: US State Department Succumbs toI Homosexual P A point that was brought up at a holiday event recently; Many people are in favor of Homosexual marriages simply because when our government topples to the Muslims in the near future, the new government will not have to go looking for them due...

    Changing Oil Change Practices

    Actually the block heater on my ISC and ISB's only heat the coolant, not the oil. I think that I have a spot for an oil heater but I didn't see one on the block of the ISC. And to answer what is an ISC, it is a Cummins engine. 8.3 Liters from 210 to 310 HP (depending on the application). It is...

    A note on unions (not related to trucking!)

    I just don’t agree. There is no double standard. A contractor is completely different animal than a unionized worker. The contractor is subject to more performance related standards and subject to a termination of the contract for different issues, like not fulfilling approval requirements...

    Saddam Executed!

    Well for those who don’t think that executing someone is justified, I welcome you to take a trip to me to see Africa and Bosnia. If you never seen to a war zone or where mass killing takes place, hey you will know that this is the only recourse for crimes like this. As for domestic...

    Longest living president - Ford - Died at 93

    Cheri The problem is that the office of the president is not a private office, it is a public office of the highest position this country has. There is a strict need to have respect for the office, a need to maintain integrity and a very important need not to get involved with someone or...

    Longest living president - Ford - Died at 93

    Remember, Monica=lying to a Grand Jury. Remember, Iran=Selling our country out. I don't fault Clinton as much as I hate to see Carter open his mouth abot anything, he has sold us all out. But the intent for me was to put forth that we made a BIG mistake by electing carter instead of electing Ford.
