    What are you thankful for?

    That life is good again when there was a time I never thought it would be; Mom, Jeff, his family...and those who are no longer here but made me who I am today: Dad, Mike, and Jim. Sent from my ADR6300 using EO Forums

    Are Paper Log Books Coming Back?

    Everyone. Seems Qualcomm technology isn't quite the savior the company thought it would be. Too many glitches. Already he has had to dispute (successfully) two Qualcomm reports and he's been solo for 10 days. Other drivers report the same issues. Whether it is the fault of Qualcomm or the...

    Funny, he doesn't look a thing like that in person (stage makeup I am sure), but he sure flings those things around. "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" : LisaLouHoo, c. 2008

    cult of personality

    I can't play country music in my truck because it will invariably break down. That and I will go into a seizure and vomit. Things go better 'round these parts when Lisa Lou Hoo has her Marilyn Manson, Ramones, Rob Zombie, Sex Pistols and early Black Sabbath at the ready. "Cult of Personality"...

    Balancing Home and The Road

    Truer words have never been spoken. No one is immortal, you won't have one another forever. The big picture has to be the one in focus. "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" : LisaLouHoo, c. 2008

    Privileged

    I was never one of those kids who was embarassed by their parents. My dad taught us all how to handle and respect firearms, he taught my sister and me how to wire, plumb, change car tires and oil (so we wouldn't feel dependent on others); mom taught us cooking, sewing, and budgeting. I was...

    Balancing Home and The Road

    I learned early on: Plans do not exist. I got lucky twice this year. He was in the position to accompany me to my niece's graduation from Vanderbilt, and he was home this past weekend for my birthday. I know that may not happen again for years. I know Thanksgiving is up in the air. If he is...

    Would you turn in an idiot driver?

    Oh, I missed this point at first... Jeffman and I pulled into Stockmen's back in late March. We parked and took about a half hour to assess the surroundings. What we saw in that time: 3 different raggedy vehicles pulled into the semi area, parked in front of trucks, and from them emerged...

    650,000 Americans Switched to Credit Unions Last Month

    Two credit unions. Lower or no fees. I keep the bulk of my money close to home, I have some I send 45 miles away and I have not enrolled in online services...that way I am not easily tempted to make an impulse purchase, but if something necessary and costly crops up, I can get to it. "Bruises...

    Would you turn in an idiot driver?

    Jeff's 2005 GMC Savana has the option to turn the switch all the way left to kill the headlights, as did the 2006 Chevy van. The 2002 Ford cube had the old style "off " switch which overrode the DRL. My 2001 Impala had to be in neutral, park, or have the parking brake set to kill the lights...

    My Rant

    Eagle Pass, TX. Never before have I felt like a foreigner in my own country, not even in Laredo. At Wallyworld, every employee actively working was speaking Spanish to one another. At the checkout, the Mexican cashier and I made small talk in English...then she proceeded to count my change back...

    Dalmatian Named Queenie Dies in Unlawful Experiments at Wayne State

    I have a brother-in-law up for grabs. He doesn't know it yet, though. We just have to tell him we're taking him to an Aerosmith concert, he'll jump right in the car. My sister will get over it in about 3....2....1.... "Bruises fade and bones will mend-but a psyche can be ruined FOREVER" ...

    Balancing Home and The Road

    We're not married but we might as well be. I knew from day 1 how OTR work would keep him away. He was very up front about it immediately, he wanted to make certain I understood, as many ex girlfriends before said they did then couldn't handle it. I have a bit of experience in handling things on...
