    I'm not sure how the burden of proof would work here. Can you prove you did nothing? The fact is that the recap is just not useful in a roadside inspection. The inspecting officer isn't just going to look at it and trust that it accurately reflects what's in the book. He's going to review each...

    XM radio - now what?

    Excitement may be a bit of a strong word to use here, but it is very cool to have a variety of programing choices available, seamlessly, from sea to shining sea. Hmmm... You know, for a simple dude like me, whose very easily entertained at times, that is exciting. Yeah, I'll go with exciting.

    If you turn down loads ,will your company fire you

    RE: If you turn down loads ,will your company fire "No forced dispatch" is a common phrase in this business. Since we are independent contractors they really can't "force" us to do anything. The reality is, they have loads to move and that's what we're there for. Any company would, at some...

    Your answer is?

    I saw her on the Today show. It was a stage fright, being in shock type of thing. She seemed fairly lucid and had a sense of humor about the incident.

    Looking for advice

    Firegears, now that right there is FUNNY! I don't care who you are... Captain Kirk, Dave and x06 are guys that know this business. Their opinions are very credible and should be seriously considered. Wouldn't something like a mutual fund indexed to the S&P be a heck of a lot easier? The return...

    US Customs Raises Rates

    RE: RE%3A US Customs Raises Rates Diva, sounds like you got one that loves to try to "push your buttons". As soon as you show some frustration with their attitude, you are deemed to have an attitude and sent back to the warehouse for the full rubber glove inspection. My last 3 crossings, when I...
