Yeah, I caught Trump's comments live when he made them, and then later heard the CNN reporting of it and I was like, "Huh? What? Did they hear the same thing I heard? How does 'if someone looks suspicious then you profile them' become 'racial profiling'?" They showed on the screen where Trump...

They do that all the time. The headline grabs you, the first four paragraphs they tell you what they want you to know, and then somewhere further down into the story they slowly, sometimes almost off-handedly, reveal the actual, salient details of the story (or, in some cases, the reveal never...

That may be tough to do. The oldest post in the General Forum is Jan 7, 2000 (but there might not have even been a separate, distinct "General Expediter Forum" prior to that), and there are lot of them for that date, mostly by people listed as "Guest" who are not guests at all. One of those...

On a side note.... this is what the election is really all about. If Hillary wins it will be the first time in history two presidents have slept together in the White House. If Trump wins it will be the first time in history that a billionaire has moved into public housing that was vacated by...

Depends on how and on what you're flip-flopping about. If you constantly flop because it's politically expedient to do so, that's a pretty serious problem. Opinions and policy positions evolve and change as people age and learn, but voters can be unforgiving of politicians who radically change...

You're probably going to have to get a little more specific as to your definition of "inside" the tire. Do you have to remove the tire from the wheel rims and then look down at the inside of the tire to see the wires, or does "inside" mean the inner sidewall (typically under-inflation), or does...

Happy Happy! :t3310:

Some chefs are just really full of themselves. I want to eat my food exactly the way I like it. When I serve food to people I want them to like it. I might ask them to at least take a bite before they smother it with Sriracha or ketchup, if I've got some subtle flavor profile going on that I'd...

It was 6th, not 4th where they finished. Here's the writeup from MLive on the contest. Michigan's Best Neighborhood Bar: Our Top 10 list, plus honorable mentions and best of the rest I don't drink at all, so I don't do a lot of bars. But Harry's Place feels more like a neighborhood community...

Classic stuff.... lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion, mustard. I've still never had a Halo Burger. I need to do that. But I have had olives on burgers at home, as well as using a homemade olive tapenade as a topping. Quite tasty. Once when I was in Lansing someone directed me to Harry's Place, a...

Happy Birthday Mr. Murray!

No, I think those rates are just about in the middle of the ballpark. After 6-12 months you'll know if that arrangement and that carrier is for you, and you'll know much more about how expediting really operates. Then you'll be able to make more informed decisions and know which are the...

The Oregon deal was a government money grab attempt by the state employment department. They were looking for millions of dollars in back unemployment taxes. FedEx Ground in California was different, in that it was the drivers who initiated the lawsuit. Employees trigger a litany of federal...

The bus driver (who was fired, BTW) for crossing a solid yellow line and aggressive driving. The FedEx driver for Road Rage (FedEx is investigating). But the biggest crime is the portrait, instead of landscape, video.

I'm not sure where in CT you are, but it won't really matter. The northeast just isn't a hotbed of expedited freight, since expedited freight is primarily manufacturing. There is some, to be sure, however. But most of it goes to the Midwest. I have had times when I've bounced back and forth...

I dunnnoooo. Ontario and and Quebec seems to look for ways to screw Alberta, going back to the tariff walls where they instituted high tariffs on tractor production in Alberta to promote tractor production in Ontario. Canada’s overall demographic situation is similar to the rest of the...

Expediting is over the road. Go where the freight takes you. Your best bet for money is you and your wife to team in the straight truck and plan to be gone from home for 2-3 months at a time. I recommend first reading as much on here as you can, and ask questions. That way you will better...

Teams are preferred because the truck isn't limited by miles or hours. That's not to say the truck will be running 24/7, as there will often be times where you sit 1-3 days between loads. Not as often with a straight truck team as with a solo, but it happens more often than people coming from...
