    all power generator

    I would have to have it done. I understand HOW it works, just not HOW to do it. I have to do something. That A/C just does NOT cut it. Too wimpy for one thing and it needs a lot of work. New hoses etc. I would rather spend that money to get MORE BTU's than keeping the same.

    Get out of Texas!

    I have mixed feelings on the computers Greg. For sure not computers prior to high school. I can see computer classes in high school. I had a computer at my house when my kids were young. They could NOT play games on it very often. They had to learn typing and computer skills. Now, they DID...

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    Yeah, there were mainly military correspondents on the battlefields during WWII. Censorship is a MUST during combat operations. You are right. We reward BAD people and their actions today and many ridicule law abiding citizens for theirs. It is crazy. It is a small wonder that things are even...

    Kicking over somebody's generator is a REALLY good way to get "knuckled" and I mean good!! :eek: Just what is everybody going to do anyway. Idling is expensive and not good for the truck. It is illegal in many areas. Good quiet generators cost a fortune. I don't believe that there is one really...

    Home prices to rise

    They are far more optimistic on Detroit area housing prices than I am. In our area, Monroe, there has been little movement in prices. If anything they are still dropping a bit. Nothing in the works to suggest any real change. No new jobs coming in at all. :(

    Has anyone in here "stripped" an old ProHeat, used it as a generator only to run a roof mount AC unit? If so, how is it working? How many BTU's does your unit have?

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    Not only the press, OVM, many people in general have forgotten that "rights" carry responsibilities. Freedom of speech does NOT mean that you can run around saying anything you want anytime that you want, but many people think and act that way. The same can be said of every right we have in this...

    Is it just me?

    I can't run for 1.20 or 1.30 per mile. To be sure I can take one here or there but I have to average much higher than that. Luckily I am right now. It is getting far more difficult. It requires turning down more loads but we are doing it.

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    "Rights" are "different" on the battlefield then in the real world. While the need for a free press is likely GREATER on the battlefield than at "Ford Motor Company" it does carry far GREATER responsibilities. People tend to forget that EVERY right that we have comes with an equal...

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    I know all about war, OVM. I know the "good" and the "bad". I also know that the press ARE needed. We do have laws on the battlefield. We should follow them. We do, for the most part. Our troops must follow the UCMJ which includes law on what they can or cannot do on a battlefield. I believe...

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    We have always had press on the battlefield, we need them there and I don't want to live in a country that does not allow them there. I do, however, think that they should be responsible. They should KNOW not to report, locations, plans, troop movements etc. That costs lives and loses wars. They...

    Get out of Texas!

    While I agree with what you say Turtle, kids should NOT have cell phones in class. That does not excuse this, just pointing it out. They are in school to learn, hopefully useful tools, like reading, writing, math etc. Cell phones interfere with that. I doubt very much that if I had kids of...

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    We seem to agree more than we disagree here. I am not sure what you would mean by unnecessary classification in this case. On going military operations always involve lives and should be classified. We would have lost WWII if we had not classified troop movements, battle plans etc. You most...

    Will You Miss The Bush Tax Cuts???

    Our tax system should do the following: Limit the power of the Federal government Empower the People to advance Encourage self-sufficency Discourage laziness The system we have today does NONE of the above.

    Justic and Truth, FINALLY!!

    Which war are you speaking of? Not that it matters. Our congress has been doing everything in their power to insure we never win another war again since WWII ended. I do wonder which side they are on. If you are speaking of Viet Nam, I know A LOT about the behind the scenes restrictions that...

    Low Paying Load Opps

    Nope, Houston, but I bet you saw a few of the same ones!! We turned them ALL down. Finally got a good one for Monday. Houston, a second pick up in Ft. Worth then on to Denver. WAY more than .90 per mile!! :D

    WE, the PEOPLE, need to take away their "monopoly money" It is LONG past time for a good, old fashioned, TAX REVOLT!!! STOP GIVING IT TO THEM!! VOTE THEM ALL OUT!! They have PROVEN beyond any doubt that they are NOT able or willing to live within their means, or ours for that matter. The power...

    Will You Miss The Bush Tax Cuts???

    Yep, we have been for YEARS. It is not working here just as it is not working in Europe. I know the history. We are very much tied to the "old money" in Europe. Those in power want to stay there and increase their power at OUR expense. I have a hard time understanding why you agree with this...
