    Hillary Clinton Miniseries

    I wouldn't vote for her - the woman simply reeks of a hunger for power, and I find that ugly. Besides: if her own husband didn't have enough respect to avoid embarrassing her publicly, why should anyone else?

    July Chitter Chatter Bang! Bang!

    So: explain. Isn't putting a face to a name what happens when you meet in person? Or did I miss some inside joke? [Believe it or not, they guys don't always let me in on all their jokes.] :rolleyes:

    July Chitter Chatter Bang! Bang!

    I think it matter a lot, and is one of the best things about meeting people you only 'know' online. We all know that I enjoy taking the opposing view on many subjects [on the Soapbox, mostly] but most of those I'm debating are people I have met in person, and I like them, too. As OVM says, I...

    Re: Democrats, psychiatrists argue that same-sex sodomy, pedophilia are similar, shou I never saw that, [gave up on SNL before the rest of tv, actually] but I'm guessing there just wasn't room for the rest of it on the costume. :rolleyes:

    No Home Base?

    Two things: 1: you don't need any military connections to bank with USAA. I like it because they offer free checking and savings accts, and reimburse all ATM fees. also, as Linda mentioned, the staff is a pleasure to deal with on the phone, should you ever need to. 2: Where on earth did you find...

    Bad news for Al and Jesse

    It's what I've observed when going on YouTube to look for vids of trucks. Maybe because it seems that trucks are a 'guy thing', the suggested vids that run down the side of the screen are full of fights, and they get a LOT of views. So do the stupid pranks that appeal to adolescent males, but...

    July locations, drama and weather.

    In Talladega, Al. It's not a race weekend, but I would advise anyone staying over nearly any weekend to avoid parking at the 'Race Track' truck stop. It gets full of RVers who party all night long. You won't get any sleep there at all, lol.

    July Chitter Chatter Bang! Bang!

    This is the first Expo [since they moved to Wilmington] I've missed. I took a load to Birmingham, Al, because how could I say no when I whine sometimes about being in Mi all the time? Besides, dispatch is pretty good at pulling rabbits out of headgear, and if not, I could always suck it up & DH...

    Pandora: I bet if you take him by the [affected] hand, he'll follow along as docile as a little lamb, lol. If not, skip the drugs: just duct tape his mouth & then hogtie him. Ask for help toting his carcass on the CB, you'll get plenty of volunteers, lol. Or just do what wives usually do: nag...

    Embracee The Stupidity

    My reply was meant for Big Bill, not K9 [who knows it already, I think.] And the reasons why drivers 'let' carriers cheat them is mainly because it's well hidden - they have no idea of the layers between shipper & consignee, or the ownership of some of those layers. Investigating the issue may...

    Embracee The Stupidity

    Don't let the cargo van fool you, because Moot always does the job and then some, because he is a professional. Panther doesn't deserve him, but his quirky humor keeps him there anyhow. And the rest of us get to laugh about embracing the stupidity, instead of living with it, so it's all good. :D

    HOS Restart Chart

    Reminds me of the 'weekends off' when I drove t/t. Officially began when picking up a load on Sat [for Mon am delivery] 200 miles from home, and ended Sun evening, when leaving to make the morning delivery. Most of Sunday was spent sleeping, while the time after arrival home Sat afternoon was...

    Arthritis

    Spongebox: I agree that it's time for a real diagnosis, and think the provider locator that Humble linked is a good place to start. If they want to do an EMG [electromyelogram] to determine the amount of nerve damage, don't let the "needles & electricity" description scare you - it's not as bad...

    Arthritis

    Spongebox: Humble made a very good point: surgery is not likely to help, as it may seem to fix the problem in the short term, but the scar tissue that it creates [inside] will make it much worse when it recurs - and it usually does. I have trigger finger on both hands, just the middle fingers. I...

    Where am I a "Truck"?

    Mj: the Sterling I drive is a 33,000 2 axle truck, max load wt 13,000, [though I rarely get close to max wt] and it's been doing fine for more than 3 years now. I watch the signs: if it specifies 3 axles or more [Ca, Tn, NC, Atlanta loop], I can be in the left lane, though I try not to. It seems...

    Arthritis

    I don't believe arthritis would happen suddenly [acute] like you describe, it's more a gradual [chronic] pain that never goes away completely, and gets worse with time. It sounds to me like a repetitive motion type of pain, either temporary [like the leg cramps I get sometimes] or permanent...

    Bad news for Al and Jesse

    If the moron in that vid wasn't arrested, it's because the law wouldn't allow it - you know, the actual letter of the law? I'm guessing it has something to do with not preempting something that hasn't actually been done - but I don't know. Maybe the law decided that the offer doesn't count...
