RE: Remember I did the greatest Rock Song of all t Something by The Beatles. Written by George Harrison. I have to go with The Chairman of the Board on this one. While he incorrectly credited Lennon/McCartney with writing it, it's a very moving love song.

RE: A Question For Expediting Veterans About Reces Followers? I don't understand...

A legitimate criticism of our society is the "I don't want to get involved" mentality. However, I've had enough years and experience on the road to think that that's the only way to be when a stranger bangs on the door of your truck. If I feel fairly certain that it's a legitimate driver, that's...

Homes do appreciate, but so do other investments. If someone chooses the "gypsy" lifestyle and prefers not to have the responsibilities of home ownership, is that really such a bad thing? Leaving a home vacant or having someone else living there presents it's own set of concerns.

What rights are you concerned about? Do you feel that you have the right to remain contracted to them regardless of how satisfied they are with your performance? Do you feel obligated to stay with a company no matter how well they treat you? They give you the option to leave if you feel you need...

That wording in the contract is for CYA purposes. I can't imagine someone's contract being terminated on a whim. Companies value competent and dependable O/Os. On the other hand, when they get stuck with a moron they can let him go without violating terms of the contract.

Rumor has it that the folks who published the book for translating Klingon are working on a book for x06 speak. They're saying that the stumbling block is that x06 speak is way more difficult than Klingon.

2000 watts 4000 surge Does what I need very well.

I'm starting to get in the habit of feeling the fitting that goes into the pump handle to see if it is cool to the touch. So far I haven't found one that felt warm. Maybe we should have a thread in Truck Talk where we could list stops that have warm fuel. Btw, I buy the majority of my fuel from...

Got mine at Truckers World in Hubbard, Oh.

You were right Coco, it was WAY cool getting paid to go to Sturgis! Last Thursday afternoon they called about one picking up in Detroit on Friday morning going to Spokane. I've been wanting to get to the Northwest ever since I've been in expediting, so it was already my best run ever. The added...

I'll echo the good comments that have been made here. I've been with them 9 months and was impressed enough to buy a new D-truck to put on with them.

Why is it that hot weather in August is major news? In my years on this planet, I would say cool weather in August is a major headline.

I didn't pay the tax. See message #11. I don't get it either. I can't imagine how the state could come after them when the truck's in my name. I can only assume that their lawyer saw something that created a "worst case" possibility and they just want to cover their rears.

I had heard that you needed to provide the carriers DOT number. C&M doesn't want to be involved because their lawyer is concerned the state could come after them for money, somehow.

Greg, if Hawk plans to keep the truck titled in Florida he will need to take the title to Lansing to register it. My truck is titled in Ohio and I was able to avoid sales tax that way. That eliminates the stop at the local SOS office. It's also a perfectly legal loophole. My name and address are...

Well said! BFD!!!!

Dave, are you doing this to cut down on APU use? If so, do you have an estimate on cost effectiveness? So far I'm pretty happy with my factory batteries and the Rig Master.

Wouldn't it be great to have a group lobbying for us that had a 100% success rate? It would, but I doubt that anything like that exists. They're not perfect, but they're the best we have right now. I'd be happy to go back to the old rules to get rid of the continuous clock and 10/10. As many...

Did you go into the start menu to connections to see if it was disabled? I'm with Jefferson, you're getting the spell check from Firefox. If you're using Adaware you're going to find you get less crapola that you need to delete. Good firewall. Hmmm, crapola is underlined. Anyone know how to...
