I ran a warehouse for a courier company. One of our straight truck drivers had such a delivery of heavy books. He was supposed to take them all upstairs and stack them, but pulled them off onto the dock and drove away. They were busy enough that we couldn't pull him off the streets to go fix...

For a while, I was a guard and on the side, I drove a pilot car once in a while. A friend of mine who did the same two jobs and I were talking to some guy and he asked what we did. We told him, and he somehow he got confused and thought we were armed escorts for valuable loads. "You guys...

There's a portion of US 54 between El Paso and Santa Rosa that's nothing but hundreds of acres of scrub brush. Last time I went through there, it was dark, so I didn't get to see that, but I saw deer crossing signs. I thought, "I've never seen any deer along here." 1/4 mile down the road...

I don't know if this is the same rumor or a different one, but nutcase Harold Camping, the founder of Family Radio (which actually has some decent programming), again says he has calculated the day of the Rapture, which is May 21st, 2011 (according to him). Thing is, this is at least his third...

YouTube - 2x4 through my windshield...

1 amp can't be much, right? I mean, how long can you run it without worrying about a single battery?

Sears: Online department store featuring appliances, tools, fitness equipment and more Stanley 2500 Watt, 3250 Surge Watt Portable Handheld Generator with 25 ft. Cord - G3250S at The Home Depot I don't see any reference to either being an inverter generator, but I could just put an inverter...

Hey, I used to admire cops. That was before they decided they were in the military and they're occupying the nation. All cops thugs? I wouldn't go quite that far, but the ratios have reversed. It used to be that cops were generally honorable with a few bad apples; now things have reversed.

Thanks for that equivocation and that spineless pragmatism. 1. The government cannot compel us to testify against ourselves (i.e. a logbook that can be used as evidence against us); 2. The fifth amendment doesn't end with "unless we want to" or "unless we feel it's necessary for safety;" 3...

What's a vent fan run, installed, and how much power does it draw?

Threats sound like a pretty measured, reasonable response. "We're going to give your child this dangerous medicine." "No, you're not. She's not your child." "All children belong to the state, so yes, we are." "If you do that, I'll..." Sounds pretty reasonable. Any parent who wouldn't do...

That would be incorrect. They still can't enter without a warrant. I had been reading numerous stories about CPS goons demanding entrance into a home, having the cops present, making threats, etc. They would sometimes say they only wanted to take a look at the home, but if the family denied...

I didn't get his first name. Looked a lot like your avatar, though.

Lots of people, even drivers, applaud this. The hyper-compliant crowd has never seen such an infringement they didn't like. They think it makes them seem responsible. The whole log book system is such an infringement. The Bill of Rights tells the feral gummint they cannot require us to...

You mean the "speed holes" in the roof were a bad idea? The guy who recommended it, moniker of Simpson, told me a car salesman told him about it.

Regarding her use of force, some state's laws specifically permit (not prohibit, more accurately) individuals' use of force against cops who are exceeding their authority, using excessive force, or making a false arrest. Michigan had such a law...until recently. The following is from Pro...

Closest thing to a tip was when I delivered at a customer, and all their in-house trucks were gone, but they needed a trailer pulled to a customer just a couple miles away. He gave me $20 to do it, and then I also got loaded out of there when I don't think I would have otherwise.

If your wife is one of the few remaining "good guys," I'm glad to hear it. Maybe the fact that she's been a cop for 25 years increases the odds that she's really one of the good guys...assuming she is.

They can't, just as they can't take responsibility for their healthcare or lack thereof, the toys they're given or allowed to play with, what they're allowed to watch on TV, the time they go to bed, the adequacy of the clothes they do or don't have, or the degree to which they're supervised...

Schools...oversight for parents... Maybe in Superman's Bizzaro-world. Not in this universe. Children belong to their parents, period. There aren't enough resources on the planet to undo all the bad things done to children or do the good things left undone, and it would be wrong to do it...
