    Restroom Rage

    I don't think that's an issue, really. As Jerry Seinfeld pointed out, soap is pretty much self-cleaning, you know, being soap. Even if it's not anti-microbial or anti-bacterial, the soap prevents microbes that aren't you from adhering to you. I doubt anyone using the soap after him was in any...

    Signing on with more than one carrier

    Yeah, guys, perhaps I should HAVE pointed it out in the OP. This is a CV we're talking about, and all the others I've run into doing this are CVs, so no IFTA, logs or any of that.

    He KNEW.....

    Actually, Bush was an F. Obama's an L or a Q or somewhere down there.

    Signing on with more than one carrier

    That's the thing I was thinking, but if each carrier gets most of their loads this way but has a few of their own customers, at least you get the benefit of each of those exclusive customers.

    Signing on with more than one carrier

    No, these weren't booking outside of their system. They were signed on to multiple carriers, no QC, just used the phone to connect with each dispatch office. Each carrier knew they were signed on elsewhere. When they land in a city, they call each office and tell them. If they accept a load...

    Signing on with more than one carrier

    It seems that a month or two ago, I was constantly running into drivers for smaller outfits that were signed on to 3 or 4 carriers. Now that I want to ask them about this, I only run into the drivers from major companies that disallow this. I'd like to know some of the companies that allow...

    Ban the flag??

    Well, we know that our wonderful president wouldn't wear a flag lapel pin so as to not be seen as "taking sides." If lefties are to be consistent, they'd have to vote for a ban, wouldn't they?

    Vans park with the big trucks at the FJ

    I don't like to park right out front of the building, but every once in a while I'll do it for an hour or so in late afternoon, if that's the first part of the lot to see any shade. It's a shame more truckstops can't be like that Flying J near Wytheville, with trees around that provide some...

    Vans park with the big trucks at the FJ

    I've never understood that. What's so tough about putting it in a garbage can? Guess we'll never know by asking on a forum; my guess is people who dump pee bottles around don't spend a lot of time reading.

    barry declares the 'War on Terror' is over

    The unprinted second half to the headline: "...War on Bill of Rights to continue."

    Doesn't TA have a similar program?

    Vans park with the big trucks at the FJ

    At many places, if you're not close to the building, the wifi won't work.

    Oh, no, not again...

    Went into the men's room at the Flying J in Amarillo to wash my hands and such before eating, and straight out of a scene from Seinfeld, this jerk comes out of a stall, and I hear the toilet flush. He passes me at the sink and walks out. I thought, "He'd better not be going to the buffet."...

    Palin has found her running mate.

    They showed promise in the early days, but were soon co-opted by the Reptilian establishment. And they don't even know it.

    Murdering America

    It's either a nation run by fools, or very smart people engineering a planned shutdown of this country as a 1st World nation.

    generators, weight and wattage

    Looking at Honda generators. There's one on their website, the EU3000ISAN, that specifies it delivers enough juice to power an AC unit. But it weighs in at 130lbs! How much juice do I need to power, say, a 9000 BTU AC unit, the ones that stand on the floor in the corner? I'd kind of like to...

    TV on the road

    Nope. Pulls the signals right out of the air via the antenna. There are a lot more signals than you think, too. Since going digital, stations now have more than one broadcast. If they broadcast on channel 26, they might have comedy on 26.1, and drama on 26.2, and news on 26.3, etc. I was...

    TV on the road

    If you have a laptop, you can get a digital TV receiver from any electronics store. The picture is superior to an actual TV. They're about $100, maybe a little less. Just run the installation disk, plug the gizmo into your USB, attach the small antenna to it, and away you go.

    Our President working hard

    I suppose if Obama's goal is to institute communism and reduce us under absolute despotism, it could be considered to be cleaning up the GOP messes, the same way a ship captain attempting to wreck the ship on the rocky coast could be said to be making progress as he steers towards them.
