All of you who enjoy bird watching should keep this in mind for next year. It is amazing to see all the birds of prey that pass through the region around the lower Detroit River. Our marsh, Pointe Mouillee, draws and hold thousands of them and untold numbers of shore birds every year. The...

One thing I have always wondered. Why did Canada never develope an auto industry of it's own? You know, NOT a division of a US company.

Mark up is a REAL funny thing. It is NOT as simple as I once thought. That was one of the very few things I learned while I was in retail. There is NO one set markup across a store. At Cabela's it took a gross margin of 45% to make a profit. Gander had less store and fancy stuff and we needed...

All our rates are going up, by quite a bit. We assume we know since they give us statements for every run. I doubt if they are lying. They would get caught pretty darn quick if they were.

I also eat where I can and don't always worry. Truck stop food is particularly bad though. I ENJOY eating, it is one of my favorite sports. I do prefer REAL food over the bulk stuff you find at a lot of the chains. I am willing to pay more for it a lot of the time. No use packin on the pounds if...

No THIS FedEx team. We don't drive for peanuts either!!! :p

Nice load for tomorrow, running from MN to NJ. Ran this same load in Jan, the rates have sure gone UP!!! Nice too see!! :D

A calculator.

Keep eating grain and you will fit in with the cows even more!! :p

Or any need for a gun or ammunition either. No self respecting game would go any where near those shorts!!

You need more coffee. The ONLY thing that your shorts tie into is my NIGHTMARES!!!

Maybe we can talk sometime. I never asked, do you hunt? It ties in.

Why do you think that Obama is Castro's enemy? I don't follow.

Nope, not a joke either. It is just ONE of the ideas I am playing with right now. Know anything about short range transmitters?

I doubt that Castro really believes that. He is just spouting off to get his buddy Obama to force our congress to let up on the sanctions. As soon as we do he will crack down again, worse than before. He is secretly giving Obama lessons on how to control a country over the internet!! :p

You can go to work for me Greg, when I start my new film production company!!

I know we are headed the wrong way, I hope we can at least TRY to turn back this vile idea that government is in control of us. It matters only because the entire idea of totalitarian government is weakened every where when ever it is limited. It shows that it CAN be done, even here, where...

Maybe we will get you see you more now Ken. Have you over the house for dinner sometime. We are not all that far from Taylor.

There is some hope. The people of Venezuela are at least TRYING to limit the scurge of Chavez and his totalitarian ways. If only we can do the same to stop Obama. It will be interesting to watch. I wonder if Chavez will use the military to insure his power base? I would NOT put it past him, or...

We have not noticed TA fuel being 7 to 10 cents per gallon higher. As to the discount, it seems to vary a lot by the location. We don't depend on the discount, it is looked on as a bonus. We tend to use the TA's and Petro's because of the Ultra One card.
