The Vietnam war had a pretty clear alternative, which we eventually went with. So, good job on that one. No, no it doesn't. There is no clear alternative, at least not one without significant consequences. If there was, you'd be able to articulate it. You realize that Trump ended the family...

When something or someone's actions are called "shameful," something worthy of causing shame or disgrace, it implies a consciousness of wrong or foolish behavior. It also implies a requirement that an alternate action must be correct or responsible. So what, exactly, is the shameful part? And...

Well, like so many others, you're complaining, and shaming an entire group of people, without offering a solution of any kind, workable or unworkable. Sending someone back to a near-certain death or unjust persecution in the case of a legitimate asylum claim isn't exactly tippy top on the...

Trumpettes have been awfully quiet on many Trump issues: unemployment numbers, the economy, the historic meeting with Kim Jung Un and the prospect of peace on the peninsula. And that was just last week. I find it equally interesting that the anti-Trumpers have remained silent on these issues...

It makes me feel a little better that it's happened to someone else. :D I once got two turndowns for one load, that I didn't turn down, and as it turns out we didn't actually even bid on. Just one of those things. I was driving in rural New Mexico and didn't have a cell signal for a little...

It's not easy being green.

This sooooo doesn't matter, but I'm gonna let people know anyway, because somebody might have wondered, or might find it interesting.... When someone joins up and doesn't select a custom avatar, and they don't fill in MALE or FEMALE, the default green EO avatar is automatically used. If they...

4) Never be placed in service in expediting in the first place.

Stating what "most" people do, as if it's perfectly fine and normal, is giving advice. Most people do not, in fact, just put UNDER 10,000 GVW decals on and ride, so your stated fact isn't even a fact.

OK, I'm going to go by what you typed, focusing in on GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight). So, the issue is the vehicle weighs more than 10000 pounds, and you need it to weigh less. You need to shed some weight. If you haven't seen the movie The Martian, I highly recommend it, as the last third of the...

They do a lot of butt dialing.

One little trick to make an omelette pop is to add a teaspoon or two of dry pancake mix to the eggs when you beat them up. It adds a touch of body and just a hint of vanilla that causes the other flavors to jump out at you. Another one is to add to the eggs a finely chopped anchovy or a little...

No, it won't kill the alternator. The alternator will work a little less hard if it's 120 or 150, but 90 is fine. When it comes time to replace the alternator, that's when you'd move up to a bigger one. Incidentally, two 6-volt 300 Ah batteries is 600 Ah... at 6-volts. At 12-volts it's 300...

Yep. I cannot recommend Concorde Lifelines too highly. I don't have them in the Sprinter, mainly because the ones I want (L16) are just a tad too tall to fit under the bunk, so I'm using Trojan wet cell aerial life batteries. But, every boat I've had since the 80s have had Lifelines in them...

I spent a lotta years in all aspects of the restaurant industry, so I know how it works behind the curtain. I trained as a chef in a French kitchen, managed fast food chains, manager, Executive Chef, and Chef de Cuisine in high end steak and other restaurants, and know what it's like obtaining...

Well, first it's $25 for a steak and for all-you-can-eat shrimp. And a choice of a side (like a baked potato), garlic toast, soup & salad bar, and a beverage. Second, they don't have special Truckstop Cattle Farms where they grow Truckstop Steaks. TA/Petro uses the same USDA Choice steaks that...

Ah the Porterhouse Steak. NY Strip on one side and a tenderloin filet on the other. Throw in some shrimp and that's a good day.

Little bit.
