Yes: better than no trip at all - it's something, at least. If you get the chance, please thank Leo for doing it. Sharing the truck with a total stranger can be fun, but it can also be a miserable experience, and it was good of him to risk it on our behalf. I just hope it was an eye opener for...

In the article I read about the guy who created the site, I was shocked to find the difference in charges for Tamoxifen [a breast cancer drug] ranged from $11 to well over $400. There is no excuse for such disparities, except greed. Do people not care because "insurance pays for it"? We ALL...

As long as the law requires probable cause [to suspect DUI], I'm in favor, because without it, a refusal can allow drunk drivers to continue driving. The number of repeat offenders [in double digits!] proves that more needs to be done to stop intoxicated drivers from threatening our safety on...

This site is a blessing: About GoodRx I found it awhile ago, but didn't want to share if I hadn't checked it myself. Today, my $76 prescription cost $55, so I can vouch for it. Even if you only pay a few dollars copay, think about comparison shopping your prescription, and filling it at the...

I really wish she could have spent the 2 days with me, instead. Because I spent them going nowhere [except nuts], trying to replace a missing marker light lens [cover], so I don't get pulled aside for inspection. And to protect the exposed bulb & wiring, of course. It took 2 days to determine...

Jason: you have the right idea, but the wrong target. Expediters don't deal with retail deliveries, per se, and can't offer guidance on what you might bid for providing that service. I'd suggest you check out the competition, and see if you can improve on what they're offering, either with more...

Thanks - and yes, I do. [Send my opinions to DC] It may be an exercise in futility, but I refuse to accept that 'we, the people' are powerless to change what we see as wrong. Especially if we can credit those who are wrong with having the right intentions [but getting bad intel], hmmm? ;) On...

If you were to read what I wrote, you would stop making such ridiculous comments, because there was nothing about giving up "every" product. Just the ones that pose an unacceptably high risk of death to large numbers of people, many of whom really are innocent children. If substitutes for lead...

P: you don't really mean you hope it's a joke, right? Because there isn't the tiniest shred of a scintilla of humor in the whole sorry story of LEO's gone stark raving mad & convincing medical professionals to join them. Every LEO and MD who went along with this needs to be charged, and that...

Very nice, Linder! PS I got tired of trying to lift the hot steamer basket from the rice cooker, so I added 'loop handles' made from twist tie lengths [the kind you buy by the roll & cut lengths as needed]. They can take the heat of steaming/boiling, don't get in the way of the lid, and no more...

Ever since the first revision of HOS, nearly 10 years ago, drivers have been pointing out how the loss of the split sleeper provision forces us to drive when we might judge it wiser to stop, but it falls on deaf ears. The reason the Agency is going to have to reconsider the 34 hr restart is...

Wow, Turtle: I must have crossed the border 100 times in a cargo van [with and without the FAST card] and never once got searched. Aren't you the lucky one?! Littlejoe: FWIW, I can't see where you did anything 'wrong', but that's a big part of why I won't cross the border in a CV again: you...

What a charming example of the respect for life: protecting people from the toxic effects of lead poisoning [which affects every single part of the body, and more severely for children than adults] is seen as 'ammunition control'. There is no safe level of exposure, and no way to eliminate the...

Pretty much the same as for teams: it sucks when it interferes with your personal needs and decisions on when to stop & go. The less flexibility we have, the less safe we really are.

Wait, now I'm confused: you can't enter Canada with a criminal record, but if one parent was born there, then you can, automatically? Or did I miss something here? :confused: PS I have no intention of crossing the border in a commercial vehicle, [though I would as a civilian - I like Canada], I...

Glad I'm not either of the above: aint skeered, lol. BTW: what time is it, anyhow? My wall clock says 2330, computer says 2230, cellphone says 2130, and I do have a load to pick up later....[Eastern time] :o

If you take all the inconsistent and illogical things Panther does as a personal slight, you're gonna need a headshrinker, lol. ;)

That's what I call retiring with class! Best of luck to you both, and India: I think of you with gratitude every time I use my rice cooker. It was your mention of it's capability to brown meat that convinced me [I wanted taco salad!] and I absolutely love it. That's just one of the many ways...

PS No chinchillas were harmed in the making of that photo - not so sure about the baldy, though. :o

Happy birthday to a man who knows how to keep his head [warm]!
