    Sanitize the War?

    Bush Sr put that policy in effect in 1991 and it's been left in place ever since. I can understand it being a problem for an individual, at the funeral, where the individual is identified. That should be left up to the family as to whether or not they want clicking cameras intruding on a...

    Morals, religion, and accepting certain loads

    Exactly. You guys are just killin' me with this kitty porn stuff. I'm dyin' here. But, to get back on topic, the big question still remains... Can the Amish owner/operator morally reconcile buggy expedite of auto freight?

    Barry Wants 28 New Marine 1 Helicopters Big Pimpin In DC!!

    "You guys can't take the humor!!" Au contraire, my friend. I've got a hеlluva sense of humor. Biggest problem is "Barry wants..." in the heading. That's not SNL funny, that's just makin' shίt up for the sole purpose of connecting him to the whole pimpin' slant. It would be SNL funny if...

    Wi Fi Booster

    Yeah, they're external antennas that hook to your USB or Ethernet port. Not really a booster, but a WiFi card replacement. The Flying J (special offer) has one, for example. Here's the WiFi Extender Datasheet.pdf Here's the Installation Guide to you can see how the connections are done: WiFi...

    Cargo Vans

    Mine's a Freightliner, so I didn't feel morally correct in selecting Dodge.

    Another GPS Question

    Actually, size does matter, but in this case, believe it don't, smaller is better. My biggest concern in getting a standalone, without question, is the teeny tiny screen size. And like Cheri, I wouldn't want to go back to the laptop. Downside to a standalone is that it makes a really crappy...

    Thanks for putting that song into my head now.

    Morals, religion, and accepting certain loads

    That's disappointing, since I think it was a legitimate concern and a legitimate question, at least for some people. I think it was an excellent question, if for no other reason it makes one think.

    Barry Wants 28 New Marine 1 Helicopters Big Pimpin In DC!!

    It's racist because you've associated a black man with pimpin', which isn't done very often with a white man, and in order to make the racist connection you had to use the premise based on the lie that Obama wanted the helicopters in the first place. A more accurate heading would be Bush Wanted...

    This BS HAS to Stop!!

    The Japanese banks have been hit almost as hard as American and Chinese banks. The Origami Bank has folded, and the Sumo Bank has gone belly-up too. Bonsai Bank plans to cut some of its branches. The Karaoke Bank is up for sale and is going for a song. Meanwhile, staff at Karate Bank got the...

    Morals, religion, and accepting certain loads

    I'm paid to haul freight, not to make judgments of what other people may or may not do do with the freight I haul. For all I know, the consignee tosses what I deliver to them into the incinerator. I don't know, I don't care. It's their business, their freight, not mine.

    Barry Wants 28 New Marine 1 Helicopters Big Pimpin In DC!! Did you even read the story from the link you posted? Barry doesn't want them, they were ordered by Bush right after 9/11, and the order is now on hold. "I've already talked to (Defense Secretary Robert) Gates about a thorough review...

    Mr. Marx Got This Right........

    I promise you, Karl Marx never said, wrote or even thought that. More expensive houses and technology? More credit? Attributed to Marx? I'm LOLing here. That's pure 2008 language and phrasing, and sounds nothing at all like anything that Karl Marx has ever written. Reading that "quote" it sure...

    Your Thoughts About Going to California?

    I wouldn't presume to answer for Papa Dog, but I'm sure he responded simply out of giving you an expedient answer, rather than having you wait for ATeam to answer your question with the predictable, "Click the link in my sig." "Sig" is short for Signature, which is something you can set up to...

    Bailout Bank Blows Millions Partying in LA

    Agreed on all counts, Pilgrim. Northern Trust should have probably cut back a little for PR's sake, but then again, it's their money, and they're one of the stronger banks in spite of the subprime mortgage mess. Their bottom line was extremely healthy last year, with a net operating profit of...

    Bailout Bank Blows Millions Partying in LA

    It's not BS, and if you understood the first thing about all this you'd know that. Unless by BS, you mean Britney Spears, since you seem to be getting hard news from TMZ these days. :D Yes, it's on their bottom line, and yes, they are using it, but you have no idea how they are using it, you're...
