@Damir_Akaza You lost credibility at "neither are performing for the camera". The female is absolutely doing actions to draw eyes to her body starting her outfit and how often she moves around compared to the male.

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@TRUCKINGdotORG What do they expect when they let ambulance chasing lawyers post billboards every 5 miles saying "Big trucks equal big bucks". Our industry is blatantly targeted and demonized by said lawyers and no one bats an eye.

@TaraBull Kinda looked like she was doing the pee-pee dance. Maybe she was in a hurry for biological reasons. She is human after all

@ksorbs How about some damned accountability. If a white person said this about another skin color they would be blasted and boycotted. These race baiting hacks dont want equality, they want superiority. Racism is racism, no matter the color of the perpetrators.

@kurt13warner @jbrownwoods @KurtBenkert @theqbschool It's the David Carr effect. He's been sacked so many times he's hearing footsteps.

@OOIDA @RepLaMalfa @RepHageman @RepDaveTaylor @RepPatHarrigan @repscfigures @RepMaryMiller How about the law that makes hazmat stop before crossing railroad tracks. It does nothing but make us a road hazard for distracted drivers. Not to mention making us be an obstacle for trains for 20 seconds instead of 3. If stopping and looking saves lives everyone should have to

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@TaraBull The law of supply and demand states that the more of something is available the less it's worth. This will do the same as quantitative easing and stimulus checks in raising inflation. We make more and pay more in taxes because of the worthless money they keep printing

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@AP Our healthcare system is trash pill pushers. How is it our responsibility to pay for their health care instead of the citizens who are footing the bill with our taxes. We've gone trillions in debt being the global ATM, it's time for that to stop.

@TRUCKINGdotORG @NewsNation @KeleighBeeson All the ATA cares about is lining the pocket of their mega carrier sponsors. Most of which are the biggest dangers and rate cutters on the road.

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@RepTroyNehls @POTUS @SecDuffy Can you all please address the stupid law forcing hazmat to stop at railroad tracks? It puts us in more danger by being exposed to the tracks for longer and makes us a traffic hazard to inattentive drivers. If it's such a good idea to stop an look shouldn't all traffic have to?

@dom_lucre Im gonna have to disagree on this one. Naming a team after an individual tribe to honor them is one thing, but the term redskin is as derogatory as n*gg*r, Cracker, or sp*c. It's intended as an insult to Native Americans and shouldn't be used as a team name.

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@FoxNews @ffweekend Here's a thought... if that's what works for them, cool on them. If it doesn't hurt anyone, then it's no one's business but their own. Quit trying to make yourself feel validated by bullying others to live the same as you.

@TaraBull808 It's natural to have to earn the resources needed to sustain your life. Every animal and every plant is constantly working to feed itself and survive. What makes us think we're so special to get a free ride?

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@TaraBull808 The Mist by Stephen King from 2007. The ending was so messed up I haven't watched anything by him sense. If h ou don't know, Dude mercy unalives his son only to realize the loud noises he was afraid of were them being saved not a minute later. I don't need drama from a movie

[The Real Mike Rowe @mikeroweworks]

I’ve made no secret of the absurdity (and the hypocrisy, in my opinion) of opposing fossil fuel production in this country, while supporting the policies that allow us to import those very same fossil fuels from other places. In fact, I’ve described those policies the "height of duplicity," and the epitome of a "Not-In-My-Backyard.

I still stand by that criticism, mostly. I say "mostly," because I’ve just learned that we do the exact same thing with lumber, to a degree that's no less befuddling. Our reliance on wood is extraordinary, and we’re blessed to live in a country with over 800 million acres of forest. That’s literally a third of America, covered in trees. Unfortunately, we've decimated out timber industry. Today, we act as if forest land and timber reserves are in short supply. They are not. In fact, according to Mike Albrecht, President of The American Loggers Council, our forests are burning and rotting at record levels, due to decades of mismanagement, and we are, at the same time, squandering one of our most valuable resources.

Obviously, some people will doubt this claim, but one thing is indisputable: In spite of our unprecedented abundance, America imports more wood products than any other nation. In other words, we could easily be "wood independent," just as we could easily be "energy independent." And yet, we choose not to. We choose instead, to rely on other countries to provide us with the raw materials we need.

The question is why, and I suspect the answer will not sit well with everyone. Nevertheless, here is my whole conversation with Mike Albrecht. It you touched wood today, it's worth your time. https://t.co/U133boXCKz

@TaraBull808 That looks a lot like pro wrestler Romain Reigns

@Land_Line_Mag There isn't a driver shortage. The mega carriers just can't find people willing to take their abuse.

[Eric Boatman @okshowboat]

@Land_Line_Mag Go after the DEF and DPF regulations that are wasting natural resources by cutting the life cycle of motors by two thirds ands raising operational costs so exponentially.
