It's a whole different world on an iPhone. Way too small.

Anybody ever tried a Ramsond inverter generator? Never heard of them before today. The one beside me is a 3500, but I'd probably go for the 2500.

Very true, and very true about his predecessor, too.

Hmmm...so if I went with an 8500 or 9000 BTU, there'd be NO DOUBT it could run the AC, even with the startup, and have enough left over for some various and sundries... Of course, being that I have no insulation, maybe I'd have to go with a bigger AC.

What's your make/model and BTU of AC again?

I just looked. It's going to be cooler in Laredo for the next couple days than up north. There's no way on God's green earth I could ever adapt to those temps without AC. Don't have a roof fan, don't have insulation, and even if I did, there's no way I could sleep like that.

Do you have any of the starting problems I'm reading about? How many pulls does it normally take you? I remember you showing me your AC unit. Could you please remind me what brand and BTUs it is? You were saying the Honeywell handles the startup just fine, and it's 2200W surge, right?

C-rap. I was only going to go with an 8500 or 9000 BTU unit, but if their reliability is low, that would make it a bad idea. I have to figure out something. Idling is using up a lot of gas, and since it got hot again... I was offered a load to Laredo today, but somebody else snagged it...

Hmmm...here's one that's less expensive than the others I've found. I just wonder if it would be enough to run an AC unit and laptop. Or even just the AC...

As much as I'd really like to use one of the slimmer, lower profile generators like the small Hondas or Honeywells, the cost is just too high. I may have to go with the bigger kind, the ones mounted in the frame. I'm not crazy about the idea, but I may have to resort to that, being that they...

Did you catch this? "2) To perform in-depth interviews with trucking industry executives to determine barriers to routine HIV/STI assessment and screening of their employees..." Can you IMAGINE that? After you go through the staggering rigamarole and red tape and documentary crap that we...

Calvin Coolidge is one of the few honorable men to ever hold the office of the President.

Ah, I forgot!! Isn't Justina Bieber a Canuck? We'll take Celine Dion, Alan Thicke, and Keanu Reeves back if you take Justina Bieber away forever. And yes, I typed Justina on purpose, since he has no testosterone.

Hey, remember that movie called Operation Canadian Bacon?!?!?! Alan Alda plays the US president who, in an effort to boost the American economy and morale, decides to get into a cold war with Canada, just some name calling, farting-in-your-general-direction stuff, but then it goes awry. Some...

Me. (filler to make at least 10 characters)

THAT WAS HER?!?!?!?!? I yelled at the TV when that happened, though iirc, it was in rehearsals. It was longer ago than 2-3 years, too. Not a Bowie fan, myself, but I'm pretty sure you should be reasonably familiar with him if you're a musician. Reminds me of the time my dispatcher didn't...

It's been a long time since I've been to the GWN, so maybe it's changed. When you go through the border into Windsor up the main drag, do they still have on the left side of the street that gorgeous, delicious looking sign with a huge beer on it? Man, I wanted to stop there every time.

Daley, who should be called something else with a D and an A in it, announced what is being called the toughest handgun law in the nation. Principal outrages are that a resident of Chicago would only be allowed one gun in working order at any one time, and that you would be arrested for taking...

I must dispute. Generally, the argument given from the mandatory-seat belt and various other gummint-is-my-daddy crowd is that medical bills have a tendency to be of a massive, grinding, ongoing nature. I still disagree that that gives them the right to tell me what to do when I haven't asked...

Being that this is Canada Day, it seems only fitting that we Yanks take a moment to thank you for the many wonderful things that you've given us, and possibly spend another moment reviewing the not-so-wonderful things you send us. After all, how else will you know what to send more of and what...
