    Load boards

    That's the problem - you know where the freight is, but that's based on experience. This whole board redesign thing was supposed to help better reposition the fleet to where the freight is, especially for the new and inexperienced. But the redesign doesn't do that. It sends you to the board...

    Important Ruling on In Cab Laptops pending

    Won't make any difference in court. There are many reasons why courts routinely reject GPS logs as evidence, not the least of which the data can be manipulated (hacked) prior to showing up in court to reflect any data you wish. Plus, there's the time lag from the satellite, the frequency of of...

    "Empty Moves are accurate and provide the ***best*** option to get a quick load. The system updates by the second. This is a great improvement in our system and you ***cannot*** make a better decision based on your years of experience. Use it and see the difference." That's what they keep...

    Go to the Board Position screen, then click Board Maps. Why we don't have a PDF file of the entire thing, I have no idea. In any event, it still just boggles the mind that none of these boards have anything to do with from where the freight comes. And they're gonna be proud of these maps...

    California is SICK

    Tallcal, this is not a wall that has has been knocked down that was dividing people. Gay marriage is not about marriage, it's about yet another special interest group forcing their wishes upon the majority. In the United States and other similar cultures, marriage has become a social...

    Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Give him a fish every day and soon he thinks your fish are his fish.

    Your vehicle is your personal space, but you're out on the public road. The territoriality of the personal space sometimes conflicts with public decorum. To wit: Bumper stickers reveal link to road rage : Nature News Colorado State University psychologist William Szlemko headed up a study that...

    front door view

    Wow. Doesn't even look real, looks like an entry in a Photoshop competition or something. One of the most impressive photos I've seen in a while.

    WASHINGTON — American and international investigators say that they have found the electronic blueprints for an advanced nuclear weapon on computers that belonged to the nuclear smuggling network run by Abdul Qadeer Khan, the rogue Pakistani nuclear scientist, but that they have not been able to...

    Gopher expediting

    Isn't that the company that calls you up and says go fer this and go fer that? All kidding aside, I've never heard of Gopher Expediting. I've heard of Gopher Courier, but I thought they were out of Florence or out of Erlanger, somewhere in northern KY.

    A case AGAINST global warming

    During the ramp up and peak of the Industrial Revolution, we pretty much trashed the planet. Now, we've spent most all of my life, all of my tax-paying-to-pay-for-it life, cleaning things up. Contrary to popular belief by the snotty little ingrates who don't thank me every day for handing them a...

    A case AGAINST global warming

    Yeah, I know. When the hole in the ozone over the South Pole closed up, people said, "See, getting rid of CFCs worked!". Then they mostly went "Whoops" when it opened back up a few years later, and when it was discovered in ice core samples that the ozone hole does that on a pretty regular...

    praise report

    I don't think anyone was offended. I certain am not. But, if God gets the blame for everything that goes your way, he must also get the blame for everything that does not go your way. Otherwise, you have to allow for free will and coincidence. Last week for the first time ever I talked with...

    MPG from differant truck stop brands

    There isn't likely to ever be a Top Tier list for diesel, since the term Top Tier is one used for gasolines with enhanced detergency. It meets new, voluntary deposit control standards, that exceed the detergent requirements imposed by the EPA, developed by four automotive companies: BMW...

    Methane gas

    Methane gas isn't a pollutant. Neither is carbon dioxide. They're both greenhouse gases, not pollutants. At one time this planet's atmosphere was chiefly methane. The largest methane emissions come from the decomposition of wastes in landfills, ruminant digestion (cow farts...
