DC will have to be dragged kicking and screaming every single inch to allow carry in the District.

The Nashville area Walmarts get their meat from the Tyson plant in Goodlettsville. Pull loads from there to the DC pretty often.

It is slow, but that doesn't bother me because they pay me more to go slow. The sleeper is small, but it is better than it looks from the picture. The passenger seat has been removed and that is where my fridge and microwave are going to go. It also has window curtains, so that helps make the space feel bigger. Hell, I've lived in apartments that honestly weren't much bigger than this truck. Not even kidding. I think I'll do ok out of this space.

Thanks. I'll be spending a lot of time at Walmarts in the area. This is my new home away from home.

Finally made it through all the training and was just issued my truck. Should be heading in the general direction of TN in the morning. I managed to land a dedicated account for Walmart out of the Shelbyville DC.

This is the real takeaway. The Republicans won the Senate in spite of themselves. The greatest asset the Republicans had in the election were the Democrats. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Right now it feels like all the folks crowing about the Rs winning are running around singing "Everything is awesome! Everything is cool when you're part of a team" and looking forward to Taco Tuesday. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Well, in this "red wave" the nation succeeded in throwing out a bunch of assholes with a D next to their names and elected a bunch of assholes with an R next to their names. The status quo remains. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

SEAL's aren't the quiet warriors of yesterday anymore. Now the way you find out a guy is a SEAL is when he shows you his book.

An honest enemy is preferable to a false friend.

I really love Julie Borowski's mockingly beautiful takedown of this video. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/10/24/screw-your-victimization-parody-mocks-video-of-little-girls-dropping-f-bombs-for-feminism/

This pretty much sums things up as succinctly as possible.

I'm not torn about it. It isn't the place of the government to be picking winners and losers in the market.

Yes. I do not let that which I cannot control worry me.

THE SECOND COMING Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. Surely some revelation is at hand; Surely the Second Coming is at hand. The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out When a vast image out of Spiritus Mundi Troubles my sight: a waste of desert sand; A shape with lion body and the head of a man, A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun, Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it Wind shadows of the indignant desert birds. The darkness drops again but now I know That twenty centuries of stony sleep Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle, And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born? W.B. Yeats

Not all of us pretend that. Of course then we get called loony for proposing that the "system" can't be reformed at all because the "system" is the problem.
