    The FCC Will Vote to Take Over the Internet in December

    Details have been sketchy, and successive reports often contradictory, but what follows is what seems to be looming over us in December. (We will know for sure on Wednesday, November 24 – if the FCC maintains its current December 15 meeting date.) FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski appears...

    How's the weather today?

    It turned out nice here today also - of course I am in shorts - but any sane person would probably have more clothes on - it currently is 54 outside and sunny and clear with a slight breeze.

    Oil Spill Disaster

    That was a very interesting article, thanks for sharing it. Since I deal with BS government "trucking stuff" all day everyday I have learned to look between the lines when it comes to stuff like this. I understand the frustration and anger that people are having over this oil spill - but I...

    Do you like to read?

    I read trucking magazines I have had a few authors send me books about trucking to do reviews on and post on my site. I kind of have the same problem as Dan in which I read so much online I don't feel like reading anything off line. Do comic strips count?

    Oil Spill Disaster

    The point is there are 11,000 BP gas stations, and BP only owns a few of them, most are owned by small business owners. To effectively "hurt" BP one would have to boycott all things made from crude oil. Major uses for crude oil: Asphalt Diesel Fuel oils Gasoline Kerosene Liquefied petroleum...

    Oil Spill Disaster

    Uhhh...boycotting BP Gas will not do anything but make small business owners go broke. BP doesn't own many if any of the BP gas stations.

    ATT: Kansas Primary Seat Belt Law

    I did while I was driving a truck. But now I rarely wear it as I don't drive anymore - I know this is not an excuse. I personally feel like seatbelt usage should be at your own discretion just because of the simple fact that some states don't require a motorcycle helmet either.

    Twitter - what am I doing wrong

    Well, I guess I would like to be able to get more followers - and keep them. Example: the day before yesterday I picked up over 200 followers - but today I'm back down about 150 less. I realize not everyone is into what I generally tweet about. Which is trucking related...but there are lots of...

    Twitter - what am I doing wrong

    I joined twitter 872 days ago - January 19th, 2008. I have 4000 plus followers, and it generally stays around this number. Sometimes it will go up, and then I follow back and suddenly it will drop - twitter cleaning spammers - I'm sure is what happens. I have used twitter search to find...

    Are you Addicted to Forums?

    I wouldn't say so much addicted to "forums or discussion boards" as to my blog...but I used to be fairly active on lots of different forums with a niche that is like my site - trucking related. The problem I have found with many of the forums I used to frequent quite often is the - content is...

    Do you wear glasses?

    No, I have always had 20/20 or better vision. But, now that I have been diagnosed with diabetes, I will need to keep a closer check on it.
