    Elections have consequences

    The slant of the Court is unlikely to change when Souter is replaced.

    Which run would you take?

    Like I said, it's impossible to make an informed decision based on the information given, but, all things being equal, the shorter run that pays more will maximize the revenue per mile, and since it delivers Saturday morning, there's at least a chance of getting another load on top of that one...

    FedEx Ground may go union

    Dredging up posts which are clearly dated (as in outdated) that talk about possible, pending outcomes, to infuse the most recent information to keep the old, outdated threads current with updated information, while seemingly logical on the surface, it is actually counterproductive to the very...

    Which run would you take?

    Without knowing the same information that he was given, it's a little hard (and unfair to ask) to make an informed decision. But, with the conditions presented, I'd have taken the higher-per-mile paying run. More revenue on less miles is more money in your pocket in the long run. CPM is CPM, and...

    You're gonna break that chin if your knee keeps jerking into it. No one, no one, said that veterans were terrorists. But veterans who are well trained in how to shoot a gun, who are having trouble reintegrating back into the real world, who might be a little off the deep end, and who is single...

    Anyone Know?

    I do, too. But humor, I'll stick that pretty much anywhere. ;) You thought my comment was political? Really? Let's learn about chain saws, Mr Bill. Oooooh, noooooo!

    Past violations of NC carrier discovered.....

    Every dog I've ever had stuck their face out the window, face front, and if in a pickup, stuck their face over the side looking towards the front. Every single one of them. With cows, you can go out there and physically change the direction of a few of them, and before too long all those...

    You rob a bank, and shoot someone in the process. If the person you shot was gay, even if you didn't know it, it's a hate crime. Same thing.

    There was a rather large surge in membership of certain racial groups like the KKK and skinheads when Obama got elected. Skinheads with plans were arrested in Tennessee. So the "political climate" reference is correct, and very real. Bad economic times can certainly lead people, especially...

    Gross mismanagement, questionable history, a complete and total lack or morals and ethics, and a disregard for the rules is a very big deal with him. Well, unless it's him that's doing it. That's different.

    The Decline and Fall of Private Education

    As of the end of school year 2008, the local school district where I live educated students at $6783 per. And they have a lot of bells and whistles. If a school district has to fork out fourteen grand per student to educate them, that school district needs a massive overhaul. Handing out...

    The Decline and Fall of Private Education

    No, Greg, I'm not kidding. But, my frame of reference is admittedly limited. I only have my own schooling (Princeton High, class of '76, Go Vikings!) where if parents asked for lesson plans they were given them, and most recently the local school board where I live where my mom was secretary to...

    The Decline and Fall of Private Education

    Chuck Norris is my hero (OK, not really, but he's pretty kewl in many ways), but he's off the mark with school vouchers. Yes, parents deserve educational choices, but they don't deserve a voucher hand out from the government funded with my tax dollars. If they want to home school or send their...
