With Elvis? :confused:

That is just SO wrong! All the flavor will leak out!

Dang gum those are REALLY UGLY uniforms! :eek: Shudda used the "mute" button for that anthem. I have heard better sounding car wrecks.

Does that mean you are always monkeying around on your loads? I bet that "shrimpy" engine has you using "Salty" language.

There are TONS of business opportunities out there right now. I wish I had the brains and the capitol to jump in. All these "energy problems" are gold waiting to be mined.

If it was out there we would have it. FAR too much money to be made

I don't care who wins the AFC. I want San Francisco to win. I would hate to have to watch Seattle with those butt ugly perverted smurf suits!

No power is free of environmental damage. Hydro dams destroys most of the rivers they are placed on. Are causing the extinction of multiple fish species that we depend on as food sources, such as salmon. Wind has yet to be proven to be cost effective, anywhere, and wind turbines are known to...

I don't know how much is "deals" and how much is that people don't really want cars that get really good mileage. Most people want performance. They don't want to have to run through a ton of gears to get up to speed. I also don't know how battery stuff is being held back. Just think how much...

We ran one load to Alaska, it was in Nov. It paid VERY good money including all the DH. We had Thanksgiving "Dinner" in a "diner" in the Yukon. We were the only customers in the place. The owner sat and ate with us. We had caribou burgers and fries. Would love to do one more, a "summer" trip...

The only real remaining damage from the "oil boom" days is in the few areas that acid was spilled. IF we put lots of batteries into the system the chances of spills will increase. Then there is the lead smelting process, something the government is already messing with. What I am getting at is...

It's sad that we should even have to think like that, but, it is what it is.

I would agree, it was better to take the extra. I have just seen to many "things" over the years. Every variance increases the chance you could get bit. Nothing would surprise me these days. Remember the "Golden Rule" of expediting: If the customer makes a mistake, it's your fault, and you...

Taking that extra does wonders for customer service. My only concern would be liability. Taking responsibility for freight not agreed to could come back to bite you. Not as easy a call as one may think it would be.

A present there is still a lot of coal fired electricity plants in use and, unless forced out by regulation, will have to remain in operation for a long while yet. The plant in Trenton, Michigan, that is being shut down is not being converted into a gas fired plant. All those jobs will be lost...

The stats don't tell the entire story either. I would be willing to guess that a rather large percentage of the injuries and deaths, in coal mines and all other industries, are due to carelessness or negligence on the part of the workers themselves. Not every thing can be blamed on the need for...

Don't know, never watched MTV, or VH1.

Mining is safer now than it has ever been in this country. Just like trucking. That is true for many reasons, just as it is in trucking. We are not reducing demand for electricity, we are increasing it and reducing our ability to generate it. Coal will someday be replaced, right now, there is...

As I said, my grandfather was killed at Robena Mine, in PA, on Dec 6, 1962. He was the last of 36 found that were killed there. I am the oldest of the males of my generation and the first to have never worked in a coal mine. My dad was a miner, coal and salt, for most of his working life. My...

Al Roker, and the Weather Channel in general, are so popular that it is being dropped from Direct TV and many Charter cable areas, because of the complaints about the channel no longer doing real weather. It is being replaced by a channel known as Weather Nation. Weather Forecasts | Local...
