    Well, you chose a good photo, at least: we pick on people, but never on dogs. ;)

    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    Whatever the cost of public transpo, it will never hope to approach the costs of individual cars, trucks, and limos - especially those that require fossil fuel. Not just because it's finite, but because protecting the supply has cost so many lives, and that's a lot worse than just blowing money...

    Monday what a start

    So we're even now, for the time I told your Dispatchers they didn't need to rush on getting you out of Laredo, cause you were having a great time down there in Boys Town? :o

    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    Too many companies cancel out the benefits of competition for the most part, by creating de facto monopolies, and numerous crafty ways of deceiving people about what they get & what it costs. The government can deceive people too [NSA, for example], but when they get caught, we can exert some...

    Almost everyone agrees with Star - besides the fact that he's usually right, he is bigger than most of us, and we're not completely stupid. Still, I think you're confusing Ragman's truck with your dog's nose, [understandable] and Star with me [not!] because I said Ragman's truck is just the...

    What's fair and equitable

    If he offered a percentage, that would matter, but he's offering a flat rate - what the load pays him doesn't matter, long as I get the rate I want. ;)

    Sweetner thats bad for U

    The topic is an email filled with misinformation about aspartame. Flouride is a subject I don't know much about, and am not going to learn just yet - having enough trouble learning Windows 8!!!

    Iowa issues gun permits to the blind

    Never said nothing about training. And I bet there are some 'rural people' who know nothing about weapons, same as some 'urban people' who know a great deal.

    Sweetner thats bad for U

    It does nothing to alleviate tooth decay, true - but that's not what I said it does. Alleviate means to relieve a condition already present, which artificial sweeteners cannot do. They can help prevent it from occurring, however, by reducing the sugars in the mouth upon which the tooth decay...

    Iowa issues gun permits to the blind

    Good ol Yahoo, lol. So when was the last time anyone heard or read of anyone being shot by a blind person with a legal permit? There are as many degrees of blindness as of stupidity, as one commenter noted. Having difficulty reading the application does not equate to difficulty seeing across the...

    Why not? Because it also has some benefits: reduced tooth decay, and it does help those who want to lose weight, when alternatives are not available or palatable. We live in an age where chemical exposure is unavoidable, and we each have to decide how much we're willing to tolerate. That...

    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    Sarcasm does not an argument make. Besides, I have far less trouble with the Post Office, the various License Bureaus, and even getting a tax refund, than any of the private companies I pay a lot of money [Verizon, for instance]. If you think for profit companies would do better, check out the...

    What's fair and equitable

    Crich: I have no intention of leaving Load 1 - I like the boss, the dispatchers, the 'culture', even the Sprinter guys are ok, lol. I'd be happy to drive for you on those 1 or 2 days when you'd pay my rate, though - call me when you get the freight. ;)

    President Hillary Rodham Clinton

    What those liberals believed in wasn't about limiting solely the federal govt, it was about limiting each of the parts of the whole: federal & state. It was all about balance. Currently, the federal govt has too much power, because the citizens let them. Maybe, with the recent disclosures of...

    Drug Testing for Welfare Recipients

    The test was administered by Utah's Dept of Workforce Services - the same ones who pay welfare benefits. Maybe you could explain how it benefits them to enlarge the pool of welfare recipients? Because everything I've read is about how states are trying to shrink that pool, which is why the drug...

    Muttly, have you heard? The liberal elites [of the 1700's] created the government.
