One Battle At A Time...."Prioritize"

[freightmaster]

I'm with you Bandit, and you have a good point about this computer not getting the word out. Ham radio is the way! I have a Galaxie99 cb in my pickup and I am spreading the word...Peace and hope you feel better soon.

I have over 400 email addresses, if I email them all, and only 50 of them email to 10 each, and they email to 10, and they email to 10, that's 20,000,000. That may be a little over optimistic, but what if it's not.

I sent copies of the signs to all 400, and gotten maybe 100 replies (I really haven't counted all of the replies). I have to delete the replies or my pooter would take a dump on me. Most of the reply are saying thanks.

Great job Foxx, Now you need to go to the Reps thread, and the new thread that SS started and read the posts there. I think you are the man for the job.:tiphat:

I don't think thats being optomistic at all, i think it is in the realm of possibility. Great job sir. Are you sure you don't want to be a representative, i sure think you would make a GREAT one. Atleast think about it. We are nominating you. lol.

No damn body left me in charge. I don't want to be in charge of a damn thing freightmaster. I only said what "The Man In Charge", BullWinkle, said weeks ago. When everyone starts posting their "small books" the thread gets closed. I don't want to see that happen if it is an informative thread. If you feel like I'm taking charge, maybe it's time for you to step up and get off your ass in front of your computer and YOU get out there and do something to change this mess. So far all I've seen you doing is researching different info on your computer about how corrupt our government is and what a bunch of assholes the oil execs. are. I think we all know this already, and now we're at the point that we need help doing something about it. Here's an idea, Why don't you stand up and take charge, and maybe you can motivate everyone and get this thing going so we all don't wind up in the shitter. I was off of here sick in bed for a few days, and I didn't see you get a damn thing done but sit here and bitch about how awful our government was. Stop Bitching and do something about it for Christs sake. I'm about to the point where I'm just going to go away and ya'll can do this shit. If that's what everyone thinks and wants, all you have to do is say so, and I'm gone. :banghead:

Calm down, boy is this calling the kettle black. He does have good information. It does confirm more and more how corrupt our government is. I agree with you we need to find a happy medium. Let him research and find more dirt, so we have more ammunition to throw back at them if we have a chance to debate the problem. The more we are aware of what is going on, the better we will be in a debate about our problem first of all, and if they try to shift the subject to something else, we will also be able to battle on that field also. By the way you are both doing a great job along with the rest of the people here.

Sorry Pete, You're way behind. This is all very old news. You need to go to the "Reps" thread and read there, and to the Step up thread by SilverSurfer. We would like you to step up and be a regional rep. Check it out.....

OK. and how would I help in any way? I have a completely different idea on what needs to be fixed in the trucking industry and have made mention of it many times. All I hear is fuel surcharge, don't get me wrong I agree with that. but there are many other things that also need to be addressed to put this industry back on track. Sorry I am way behind, remember I haven't worked since April 1st. So I guess I am way behind, LOL also if you read another post I have written on, you will find here in Indiana, you couldn't give someone a job and a good paying one since no one cares.

 

[BANDIT]

I believe you could help alot. You're experienced in the industry, and well aware of what is going on. I didn't mean any more than you are behind with the thing between freightmaster and I. We got into it a bit and got over it. I agree with you on all that is wrong and needs to be addressed in the industry, but we know we can't fight all the battles at once. We decided to go after the cost of gas & fuel first to at least get things to where we could halfway afford to operate again. Then we can step up and fight the next battle and the next after that. But we have got to get things right now to where we can at least all afford to work and stay in business. I believe the cost of fuel is the immediate answer to that. Have An Awesome Day

EXXON WATERED DOWN!!

I just got a phone call from a friend in western Washington who tells me the there are gas stations serving water with their gasoline. The story is that one of the truck drivers pump water into one of the trucks delivering gasoline to EXXON/MOBIL stations. Cars come to sputtering halt. Whoever this worrier is, he has my blessings.

***folks: HIT THEM ALL in THEIR pocketbooks! since according to the man promoting HIS book: the superclass: they network & 1 can sit on as many as 175 boards; of large corps; we had a saying in my day you were showing class or you were showing ass; THESE guys have done MOONED us; SO, LETS MOON THEM BACK! NO MacDonalds, Wendys, etc; LISTEN: on other forum somewhere in this network I posted a bunch of info on HOW TO LIVE WELL, like a QUEEN, on almost nothing; FRUGAL living; I am disabled; on very limited income; & I can not only pay my bills; but help others pay theirs, buy groceries for them; etc; now, if I can do all of that, & watch what is going on on various committees; I don't know them all & I am not subscribed to all; others may know some who are committed to only 1: I am in Jobs for Justice; Vets info; (not all) Californias for Population Stablization, (i live in Oregon); & am standing with environmentalists; & was AGAINST the Colombia Trade Agreement; am an advocate of HOPE: helping other people EAT & EXIST; community gardening/share cropping/share farming/ self sustaining communities; & any others I may not have mentioned forgive me please: folks ALL of these other people are fighting the BATTLE for USA, & going thru what you are to; SEE the need for networking with others? ALL part of the same: BS from what is going on in our country; DON"T cut off your nose to spite your face; GET SMART FAST! Folks: I am disabled; in terrific pain today; went to the library & got some books on what is going on; ordered others; (when in they will call me); took daughter to Central Point to Albertson's (taking her home after holiday); FOLKS: potatoes there $3.99; cheese $8.99; all "marked down meat" was HIGHER than regular prices at another store in Medford; GET SMART FAST! I posted easy laundry soap recipe to make on here that costs pennies to make; Prices I paid potatoes 10 lbs $1.15; didn't buy cheese BUT if I had it would have only cost me $4.88; I AM A MISER ADVISOR; you can afford the gases (still give them hell); but get wise as an owl & LET OTHERS KNOW ON YOUR RADIOS, etc; freecycle.org; communities have groups (my are on Yahoo"!); mom's for frugal living; LOTS of great $ saving tips; y'all might know of others; BUY NOTHING PACKAGED (there are exceptions) you can make the basic mixes; have made up; & simply add ingredients to them to make whatever you want; LETS COST THEM $! If EVERYONE would jump on THIS bandwagon; think of the hundreds who will not go hungry & have food to eat! My heart goes out to single parents with kids: for every $400 they get in child support the Gov is taking $25; & now, in Calif they are STOPPING child care $; WE WANT TO HELP NETWORK so folks can KEEP THEIR JOBS; & maybe older folks will step up to the plate & babysit the little ones; & our states are all segmented off & the only ones going thru the states seem to be the truckers; can y'all be heros for us? And pass the info on re homemade laundry soap & other ideas to help the folks make it thru this? If they become FRUGAL, & UNDERSTAND how to save $; listen folks I have lesser income than anyone & if I can keep freezer stocked, cupboards full & still help others; I must know SOMETHING. And the BEST of ALL: with everyone we convert we are HITTING THEM in THE POCKETBOOK. WE have the savings; THEY have the loss; WE have WON THE WAR: if we can get everyone to know & understand what to do.

While i was thinking of the NY RALLY, I had the same idea only a little differently.. think about this. We create one short email. we set a date and time and we all send the same email to the white house over and over again. Imagine all the emails we could send all at once and we all just set and send it for about an hour. We need to start making ourselves a major pain in the butt. We could actually do it for a few days straight.

Definitely...impressed with the quickness of your action. Let's get 'r done.

Whether we agree with time frames, whether it'll be successful or not...we should support their effort. And realize this, it isn't a bunch of drivers, or an organization...it's a member of our media sector joining forces with Truckers And Citizens United of New York. Way to go Charlie Claburn and members.

I for one am a liitle speechless. Isn't this what we're trying to accomplish - Media Attention.
