I'm not on welfare obviously and I drive a 2010 Avalanche Z-71 4x4. He just turned 12,000 miles last week, bless his heart. IDK his current KBB value, but his list price when I bought him was $51,000. I do know all too well the welfare fraud that has gone on here. A mother of one of my friends...

THEY DO?!? My grandfather, father, late husband, several in-laws, cousins, and friends worked or still do work for GM, and belong to the UAW. None of them did or do get food through the foodstamp program. They must be missing something they didn't know about. "Bruises fade and bones will...

Also, the Pilot just outside Laredo, exit 13. Saw them at the J in Franklin, KY too. In time, a short time, you will develop favorite truckstops, places where WallyWorld is preferred over any stop available in the area, which Wally cops will run you off, thus sending you to the nearest Home...

Google+ is now open to the public, no invitation needed. Alot of my facebook friends are opening Google+ accounts. I haven't been on my facebook desktop in over a week now; frankly, I am afraid. "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" : LisaLouHoo, c. 2008

Cat paw prints of sage green paint across a Pergo floor can be removed with hot ammonia water and a terrycloth towel. A fact I found out yesterday while spongepainting my dining room wall and my cat showed up. Also, tan paint is apparently tasty to cats. I locked her fuzzy behind in the basement...

It's not hockey, LOL. He's OTR training right now with a Swift trainer. He's two weeks into it, in Phoenix right now. We live close enough to Canada (60 miles) and within a few miles of I-69 that Canadian runs are a distinct possibility. Just getting ready for the day that I go out with him...

My late husband had two misdemeanors in his past (that whacky motorcycle gang!) and never had them questioned when it came to voting. Lived in Michigan, misdemeanors occurred in Flint. "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" : LisaLouHoo, c. 2008

That is great news. My veterinarian boss had this exact same scenario happen to him when he was 78, when technology wasn't as advanced but getting there. He went through the preventive treatment after surgery, never a recurrence, went back to work until he passed away from natural causes last...

Probably never because anyone could be behind the wheel of that vehicle. I think there would have to be more technology bordering on Big Brother for it to be effective. Jeff got the 'Enhanced' driver's license. It's more expensive than the passport card, but for him it's a business expense tax...

My passport card arrived today. Just sayin'.... "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" : LisaLouHoo, c. 2008

Jeff is very organized and neat. Likes the van clean and everything where it belongs. I clean things for a hobby. It's a win-win, and I am mindful of the van's "mancave" status. If I can't accept lack of wall to wall carpet, cascade window valances, pillow top mattress and Snuggle softened bath...

Jeff did have his passenger seat out for years. With plenty of overhead storage in the van, he opted to put the seat back in last year. He feels doing so benefitted him. However that doesn't work for everyone. "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" : LisaLouHoo...

Dogs don't sweat as humans, they do sweat through their paw pads and noses; however, they do have body oils that emit scent and when they shed, the oils associated with the shedding hair take on a more rancid odor. Bad part is, because they need body oils, they shouldn't be bathed more than...

In the case of true teams, yes, there's going to be the issues of pay structure and decision making. In the case of spouse or significant other road companions, like in my case, those topics are not issues, for he was the expediter, not me. He would bounce ideas off me, but he held the decision...

I guess it is necessary to have the type of personality to make one want to team with another person. My driving a couple of hours here and there meant the difference in him accepting certain runs that were offered, distance and allotted time frame. It also meant he could stay out longer...

You erroneously jump to the conclusion that we HAVE to eat that way. He has done this since he started expediting in late '02. When we got together, he told me about it, and it made sense. I wondered how he was in such great shape being in an industry that can be quite sedentary and food...

None. Bought sandwich fixings every 2 days at WalMart and kept in a small cooler. Ice for the cooler: free at truckstops, just poured into double ziploc bags. The cooler is one of those mini Igloos, fits into the step well of the van's side door, takes up no cargo space and the weight is...

I was never considered "co-driver" technically. I did make the sandwiches, I would spot him a couple of hours to allow him rest, I was someone to hang out with...walks, talks, sightsee; program the GPS, seek alternate routes on the map, massage the muscle knots out of his lower back, ask...
