    I sometimes wonder that, too...until I see all the trucks rolling while I'm sitting.

    Etrack

    I think the bigger problem with the liquid nails scenario he laid out is that he's proposing applying it to something that's not anchored. If you apply it to the matting, it's just going to pull the matting up with it in a panic stop.

    Federal workers to help financially ailing Detroit spend "wisely"

    It's funny to see you defend SS as not being welfare, and then later in the same post, decry socialism. SS *IS* socialism. For it to not be socialism, "benefits" would have to be limited to your principle plus whatever return the government got on the money while they held it. Well, we know...

    The best expediting company

    That begs the obvious question: when signing on to them, did you negotiate that rate? Did you offer them that deal, our did you sign on to the deal they were offering? And if they weren't producing the customers you were paying them to procure, was there some sort of penalty for them? And were...

    Second Amendment Foundation requests an injunction against Illinois

    I'm familiar with that, but unfortunately, while Dolphin has that (maybe the stock one does, too, don't 'member), Opera Mini doesn't, and Opera Mini is the only browser I've found for my phone that allows more text than can be displayed on the screen at one time to be selected so it can be...

    zoning board to property owner: tear down house or go to jail

    You'll change your mind when the house next to yours is purchased and a used car lot or adult bookstore is put in, right between your house and the next one over. Some zoning laws, minimal and reasonable, are necessary.

    Second Amendment Foundation requests an injunction against Illinois

    What, the formatting? It's a direct copy/paste of the press release from the 2AF website. Yes, done via phone.

    Good, or bad?

    Actually, this explains so lot, now that I think of it. I can imagine that argument being raised--what American would want to risk going down there where they have corrupt, militarized cops brutalizing people. So to make things equal, we militarized OUR cops and taught them to be brutal, to...

    What would you ask?

    Who pieced together the phony birth certificate on the website? Follow up: if you can't come up with better forgers than that, given the time you had, how can we trust you to run the country? Alternate: how did you get a connecticut social security number?

    After The Storm...

    When I was a tornado spotter, there was another spotting group with which we weren't on friendly terms. That have us the impetus up laugh at their foibles, which were legion, seeing as they were incompetent boobs. One day, as the storm was passing, one of them keyed up and reported that the sky...

    percentages

    Like pretty much everybody in this industry, they want the advantages that come with you being an employee combined with the advantages they get from merely contracting you. If you play their game, they get the best of both worlds and you get the worst of both worlds.

    truck stop inspections

    It's not true that they can't interrupt your break. They certainly can...IF you're dumb enough to get up and answer the door. Heck, when I was a guard in section 8 housing, it was a constant battle to get the inmates, er, residents to keep their stereos and TVs down to a reasonable level. We'd...

    Avoiding deer

    I hear a tank will really mess up your van. Not like a deer where you lose your grill and headlights, a tank makes the whole thing crumple. I've never seen such a collision, just what I've heard.

    truck stop inspections

    Uh-oh, greg334 is going to have something to say about that, something about it bring your legal, moral, and ethical duty to volunteer for a roadside cavity search if the officer wants to conduct one. I have an info graphic with overlapping circles showing who goes to jail. The biggest circle...

    SD..Tidbits...July 1st New Laws

    It was the reprobate genius Doug Stanhope who once advocated that there be so maximum of 10 laws in this country, total, nationwide. Start with the ones everybody agrees on, rape, murder, armed robbery, assault, etc. Once those are in place, with however many are left, you round out the 10...
