Can you imagine being the lookout who gets too excited and yells too loud about the returning tide? The ice cracks and kills a bunch of harvesters. I'm thinking the other villagers' reaction would be a little more than, "Way to go, Gilligan!"

Wyoming has passed a law against federal enforcement of Commie-care. Any fed who enforces it in the state can go to the graybar hotel. Felony.

This is crap. Neanderthals were homo sapiens, contrary to conventional wisdom.

Get statements like that out of your system. The Demon-crats (and their bootlicking compadres in the other wing of the ruling party) will outlaw that kind of statement before long. Oh, what Loughner wrought... Don't think it won't happen. The PATRIOT Act happened, didn't it?

Reminds me of the guy whose wife was tired of him golfing every weekend. She had put her foot down. Yet, Saturday morning came, and there he was. "How'd you get out of the house?" his friends asked. "When I woke up this morning," he replied, "I asked my wife, 'Golf course, or intercourse?"...

I recently found out that TA/Petro limits customers to 2 frequent fueler rewards per day. Was on a long trip and fueled at TA several times that day and later wondered where my shower credits were. Turns out that I had gotten all to which I was entitled, given the 2 points loads per day...

Just accepted a load from the LA area to a small town in central Utah. Right after I told him to place the bid, I thought, "Oh, crap, I shouldn't have taken that one." Just my luck, we win the bid, after losing out on two good loads that would have taken me back to civilization. To get...

Public parks can be rented, and people excluded, and they're public places. So what's the difference?

I don't like JBTs who think we're all in basic training and they're the instructor. I don't like the ones who have a propensity to use force or who believe they exist to issue orders. I don't like the ones who think they're above being questioned. I don't like the ones who cover up for other...

Please, please use some punctuation.

What if, every time there was going to be such a funeral that these people were going to protest, the cemetery rented the whole property to the family. That would allow them to exclude the protesters. They could still allow other families who were also having funerals at the time, and...

Talked to a guy in VA a few days ago who says that's all he does. Used to expedite, but switched to U-ship, says he's doing pretty good.

Pretty busy the last week. Milwaukee-South Carolina, Virginia to California... Now if I can just get a load out. Bid on a couple loads out so far but don't think I got them, though.

I'm sure they're more likely to take what you say at face value and believe it uncritically. The things you say are on the video aren't there; you're assuming them from what you can see.

Supposition. Or when cop chose to assault the victim. No telling at this point. The victim's head is visible only briefly on the video, and and it isn't clear what happened on the ground. The only thing that's clear on the video is the cop grabbed a guy and struck him repeatedly. We could...

Carrier/customer. That's my understanding, but it wasn't said in so many words.

There are many, many examples of rampaging cops intimidating people into surrendering their camera equipment and deleting their photos. Here's actually a mild example: Photography Is Not A Crime: Coral Gables Police Delete Ladies Images And then there are states in which the state claims...

Not for a while. The last pair I enjoyed watching was Tom Baker and Sarah. I've never warmed up to any of the successors. "Back off, or I'll kill him with this deadly Jelly Baby." "Go ahead, kill him." "I don't take orders from anybody." (pops Jelly Baby in his mouth and eats it)

I think it's the same with all of them. If you're going to stop while on a load because of ice, you have to state specifically, "It is unsafe to continue." I was on an NLM load like that one time, and the dispatcher said I had to state that specifically. It's in the contract that a load isn't...
