    Yeah, but they make it all back when you buy blank, recordable media. :D

    I can echo the "please be done" sentiment (and I think the poster had a right to say it, there ya go), and I am going to assume the poster who said that is also coming at this from my stance and not merely because he disagrees with Shooter. I don't mind anyone saying whatever they want, but...

    hope everyone votes

    Re: I hope everyone votes I gotta agree with RLENT on this one. Yeah, the media has given Bush a raw deal at times, but by and large he deserved it. He was hands-off after 911 far longer than he should have been. It was after 911 when he had the support of the world, and Republican control of...

    Vote White!

    To the vast majority of the 18-29 voting crowd, and certainly to those younger than that, the white/black/hispanic issue isn't an issue. Not even a little bit. It never enters their thinking. It really and truly doesn't. That's the one crucial thing that us old farts will have to understand, and...

    I don't know if I would classify Sweden as a socialist country, per se, what with them routinely being listed at or near the top of the list of "best" democracies (Economy Intelligence Unit). The most recent report (The Economy Intelligence Unit's Index of Democracy 2008) has Sweden at #1, with...

    Can Anyone Recommend....

    The very same reason you are looking at getting into a cargo van is the very same reason why there are way, way, way too many cargo vans. It's also the very same reason there is a shortage of straight trucks and straight truck drivers.

    Stop It!

    Honestly, can you think of a more effective way to spread hate than do it under the banner of religion? Happens all the time. BTW, Rev... "Mat 5:5 Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth. Doesn't seem like wealth redistribution there." Uhm, that's precisely what it is. Be...

    Short loads are they worth it?

    It'll be a rare thing indeed when I say no to a customer. Saying no to a potential customer, sure, I'll do that. Not a problem. :)

    Vote White!

    Leo, if you do the math on the numbers, you'll see that the "racist yes votes" simply aren't enough to make up the spread. There simply aren't enough black people in the country to do that. A certain percentage of blacks always, always, always vote for the Democrat. The difference in those who...

    Mc Cain Palin Landslide

    I did wonder. I wondered whether you wrote it, and thus was once elected to office. I wondered why you would post a first-person article with no quote around it. I wonder a lot of things, tho. I wonder where the word wonder comes from.

    hope everyone votes

    Oh, but we are. That's one of the biggest mistakes that Americans make. Everything we do here affects the entire world. And how the world treats us affects how effective we are at things both domestically and internationally. The world looks to America for many things, not the least of which...

    hope everyone votes

    Roadpig, come on, now. Granted, he's not as bad as many here like to make him out to be, not even close, but even Obama himself has admitted to being a Socialist. His cornerstone of wealth distribution is also the cornerstone, actually the very foundation, of Socialism. He's not a Marxist, to be...

    hope everyone votes

    A) I never said I trusted her and B), she never refused to follow the court ruling, blatantly or otherwise. At issue was the proceedures to verify the eligibility. Yes, it does seem suspicious. Why would so many people register to voting using a different Social Security number than their own...

    Short loads are they worth it?

    I posted that up there only to show the last thing I have received from Panther that defines what a mini is. In any case, the last two times I have ben offered a mini, in both cases the miles were more than 80 but less than 100, and both times I was told I'd get a first out after delivery of...

    No, not stupid, but you are beginning to come off looking like a wild-eyed nut who is incapable of adapting and accepting change, nor being capable of rational thought and critical thinking and reasoning. Yes, you can believe whatever you want, but that doesn't make it true.

    You keep saying the same thing over and over in every post. Why? Can't you come up with anything intelligent to add anymore?

    The Prophet Biden

    Well, Iran released the hostages because they were afraid to test Regan. :) But his "mettle" was tested early on enough with the assassination attempt, the air traffic controller strike, the Beirut barracks truck bombing, then the Communist coup in Grenada. Both Bushes were tested pretty...

    "No, for the majority it's abject stupidity and nothing more. For the minority it's intelligence lacking in enough maturity and judgment to properly utilize it." I disagree. It's like in baseball, every year you're gonna win 61 and you're gonna lose 61, the key is what you do with the other 40...

    Short loads are they worth it?

    Yup. Once I had just delivered after a long load, so I was unavailable, sleeping. Another Panther van on the other side of the lot turned down a mini. The load went to the bid boards, and a third van, an independent, sitting very near me, bid 5 times what it would have paid a Panther van, and...
