    In need of some guidance

    I noticed you said no CDL . That just leaves a cargo van . It has been pretty much agreed here a cargo van will not provide sufficient revenue for both an owner and driver . Reconsider the CDL thing though . The C units aren't really that bad and having a sleeper is much more comfortable than...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    I think some good points have been made here . "Challenge" is a low grade publication targeting a low grade market . I really don't think any changes can be expected . Those that feel it is a waste of time won't read it . Others may find it entertaining and value those coupons redeemable at...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    That's about my attitude toward the article on the ex-junkie wrestler in the previous month's issue . The whole magazine is poor journalism . But don't be too quick to judge racers . Many of them are very benevolent . The NASCAR Foundation - Supported Charities . That was another thing that...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    Charlee , I appreciate your post because it lets me know how to explain what I'm trying to get at . Yes , men cuss , women cuss , and I do on occasion also . But most of us pretty much admit we know the language is inappropriate because we refrain from using it in the presence of certain...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    Greg , I didn't see your post before I posted . We all (pretty much) respect each other's opinions here . I certainly respect yours and Turtle's . The whole point of a forum is to share different points of view . If we all agreed on anything what would be the point of posting ? It would be...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    The name of the corporation is Pilot Travel Centers LLC , not Pilot Truckstops and their website claims they serve "professional drivers , business travelers , and families on vacation " (They also serve as a rest stop for Greyhound but they didn't mention that .) Big rigs on the cover ? The...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    Greg , I put this in the Women's View topic for a reason . Women in trucking have a different attitude towards things and I wanted their opinion . I don't think the women members here consider themselves the lower end of society . But you make a good point . In my e-mail to the editor I told...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    The issue is the type magazine she quoted him in . It's a free magazine distributed in Travel Centers that are patronized by many families traveling on vacation . There is a place for that type language . I don't know how long her interview was but if she couldn't come up with more interesting...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    You may be o.k. . It isn't a direct link and there is fair warning . I hope you'll e-mail the editor with your protest . I hoped I wasn't being a prude . When I was growing up I never heard a woman using that language . I didn't hear that type of language used by a woman until after I was...

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    I wasn't sure if the link would be allowed because of the language . They can find the article by clicking Claire B Lang on the sidebar . I belong to a forum that constantly deletes links to YouTube because of language in the comments section .

    Female columnist sets poor example for female professionals

    In the latest issue of Pilot's "Challenge" magazine that is available free in all Pilots columnist Claire B Lang interviews NASCAR racer Juan Pablo Montoya . In the interview she quotes the trash term for the rectum 3 times , once quoting herself using it . I informed the editor I will no longer...

    My Wife

    If you run a search for posts mentioning spell check it seems it is actually from programs being used , note the site . (Firefox2 is one example ). Now that's strange . I misspelled a word in the original message and it didn't get underlined . I noticed it after posting and it was underlined...

    Where's the women?

    That's why women always win arguments and have the final word . If a man says something after that it's another argument . It's still too quiet . They're conspiring , aren't they ?

    Fridge - Unasked for advice

    On the clean underwear thing - best to follow Bill Cosby's advice and keep the clean underwear in the glovebox to change into after the accident . As he said , when you see an accident coming , you no sooner say it than you do it !

    Imagine that . She practicaly drove by the house when I was sitting here and didn't even stop to say hello . I got back in from Toronto yesterday .
