Great Idea From Truckinsp
David D Ruff
Rookie,Roadie,Bullis, Asswipe we can find out if he is Bullis. He's now
killfiled for me. So my last statement to this idiot is I will never know if
you make week 22 so I loose.

It sure looks like truck might have added Amy to his killfile also. If he
has, you had better follow suit.
I certainly do not mind being in David's killfile, but I wish he could stop
starting brand new threads just trying to put me down.
To me, starting a thread, just to put someone down, puts him in the Alex
Cain category. Maybe we should call him Ruff Cain.

Wow Bullis, you seem to get off on your little fantasy of Informant and Alex
ending up in plenty of killfiles yet you sure do cry like the little boys
and girls you exploit when people put you in their killfiles. Your reaction
as always is both laughable and pathetic. Why don't you try to make
yourself feel better by telling everyone how Informant and Alex are
killfiled by everyone and make yourself look really good and morph while
doing so!

Or you could just do what Bullis always begs other to do with other people
like Informant and Cain, forward his MTAK's to ab...@newsguy.com and let
them deal with it. Bullis can post pretty much whatever he wants but that
stops and forcing other people to read his crap. The fact that he just
admitted that he intends to morph to avoid killfiles won't help him much
either with Newsguy.

Funny.
I look forward to being in David's killfile. If I get placed in enough of
them, I'll just cancel my newsgroup provider and save $10.00 a month.
As a matter of fact, I am sort of looking forward to doing that. Just look
at how many of these threads never stay on subject and tell me MTT is worth
it.
BTW I have to pay extra for access to the newsgroups, because I could not
access any of them when using my Sprint PCS for an internet connection.
Maybe people will never know if I make it to week 22 because I might quit
posting first.

Then he would probably just move onto AOL. From what I have seen of AOL,
they do everything they can to encourage trolls and I do not know if it has
changed.
They claim they have a policy against misuse, but I have never seen them
enforce it.

I remember that post and thanks for the repost.
I pay $10 a month for Sprint Vision, because I need that for getting photos
from my phone to the internet. I do not have to pay any extra for using
that Vision service to get wireless internet on my laptop.
The wireless internet using a laptop and the "Vision" service is
unsupported. It works, but if something screws up with your phone, while
you are using it, you are out of luck.
I am tempted to find something that is supported and I'd have to pay extra
for, than the way it is right now.
It is hard to use in places where it will just quit and you have to
reconnect to get it working again and sometimes it screws up the phone
itself and I have to cycle the power on that to get it working again.
I have heard, that if I use it too much, Sprint will say something about it,
maybe even stop me from using it at all, but I haven't seen anything from
them about that yet.
None of the other people, I know that use their Vision Service for wireless
internet from a laptop, have been warned either.
Let me rephrase it. I already had Unlimited Vision Service. that I have on
my Sprint phone for transferring photos.
I did not know I could use that same "Vision" service for Unlimited Wireless
Internet on my laptop. So it is like I am getting the Unlimited Wireless
Internet from my laptop for free or should I say, no extra charge.. Is that
better?
If I sounded misleading before, I am sorry.

No they don't, just because you cry about it doesn't make it so. However
morphing to avoid killfiles is direct abuse and looked at more harshly than
other complaints. I suspect we'll see less from you in the short time with
plenty of whining about how others do yet they never get in trouble.

Richard, I don't care what you want to do. All I was trying to say was I've
seen people on AOL even worse than you.
If you want to keep changing your name, so what? Right now, I don't have
you killfiled anyway so it wouldn't bother me.
But, if you, or anyone else on this NG gets too bad, I'll just unsubscribe.
I have seen Supernews stop posters that used the e-mail addresses of other
posters, but that is about all I've ever seen stopped.
I doubt if anyone will be able to stop you from morphing.

No...you're much worse. You're a washed up 56 year old bum, with no life,
no job, no job prospects, who spends every waking moment in front of a
computer, seeking to find some pathetic way to stir up crap with your own
brand of knowing-it-all about whatever the subject at hand you decide to
address with your ignorance, just because you graced the seat with your
stinking ass, of about fifteen or more trucks in what works out to less
than a few years of experience, taking into consideration your various
"sabbaticals". In between all of this, when you are not collecting pictures
of naked children, you are defending your sick attraction to children by
re-defining words like "pedophile" and "molesting" to justify your
sickness.
> I do not now, nor have ever owned a sprint cell phone.
That's perfectly understandable. You have no need for one for two reasons.
No one would take your call, and you never leave the trailer except to re-
stock your dwindling supply of Spaghettio's, so your land line is all you
need.
> Truckinsp is a frickin jackass wannabe cop and nothing more.
Despite your assessment, his posts and contributions speak far more in
terms of what he is, just as your posts do in kind. I don't think that
you'll find that many, if any, people that would agree with your sentiment.
> I swear, the intelligence in this group is far superior to that of

The thing is, you'd never recognize intelligence if it slapped you upside
your ugly face with a four-by-four. You are by far, the absolute most
ignorant human being I have ever had the displeasure of encountering.
Equally disturbing is your utter, unrelenting and limited ability to
recognize that you are most unwelcome and do nothing but waste your time by
even trying to participate in this group.
But then....time is all you have left. You are devoid of any redeeming
qualities worth noting. At least while you are wasting your time in here, a
child is safe from harm from your sick fantasies that you might be tempted
to act upon.
So...feel free to keep on wasting your time.

That was part of what cost him his Supernews access and resulted in his
banishment from them for life. It was several things, including him
telling the administrators that they couldn't do anything about him
nymshifting or downloading child pornography while on their servers, but his
admittance that he was going to nymshift to prove he was right and they were
wrong was one of the things that lead to his getting a swift kick in his

Why would Supernews add anything, st00pid? They don't listen to you

Because he tried to tell them what they could and could not do and they

Yeah...yeah....yeah....you've lied about all of this before. You did

Do you really think you're fooling anyone? People with a brain know who's
comments and insight are worth consideration, and whose is not.
Anyone who can't defend their positions usually take up a discourse like
you have repeatedly done, which is rather laughable for someone who is
supposed to be an adult.
Try acting like one for a change, and if you know you are right, then take
the time to defend it credibly, or apologize and retract when you are
clearly proven to be in error.
It's no shame to be wrong, but it sure is a shame to be proven wrong, and
to offer childish comments, especially when the evidence out there clearly
shows that you were wrong.

My response was not in any way to diminish the job that you do or scope of
authority. It was to illustrate the simplicity of the issue. I just find it
extremely hard to swallow that Ron wouldn't have a clue, or Amy for that
matter, what a "truck inspector" was, or might begin to consist of.
Of course you have revealed this before, and I was aware of it.
To me, it's like someone who works at McDonald's asking what a french fry
is.
You would agree that an officer who routinely works exclusively at a truck
scale and performs all level inspections, could be described as a "truck
inspector"...right?

truckinsp
>~Tony~
Nope, I never claimed to be a Fed although most of my salary comes from
Federal MCSAP funds....I am a member of the highway patrol and inspect
trucks as part of my job....and that is all I have ever claimed to do....Amy
obviously has problems interpreting what she reads....
But, as to her claims that she's never seen a Fed who only inspects
trucks.....she ought to get a look at the Federal border guys...they are
Feds and they inspect trucks......and as to her claim that she's never seen
anyone at a state DOT scale separate from the state DOT that inspects
trucks........since my Feds have to get at least 32 truck inspections, 8
cargo tank inspections, and 8 hazardous materials inspections a year, they
often show up at the scales to inspect trucks and I guarantee that it is the
same in other states.....and in my travels, I've often seen LOTS of other
state highway patrol officers working out of scales, they too have to keep
up their certifications or they have to call out a truck inspector every
time they respond to a commercial vehicle crash....it is MUCH safer than
pulling trucks over on the highways for an inspection.....I'm beginning to
doubt that Amy's ever been at a scale or paid attention when she was.....I
think truckstops are more her thing.....seems to be where she gets most of
her information.....

Grow some balls, truckinsp. THAT is the best explanation you have given
in the repeated times I have asked you. So......as I asked you the
FIRST time....you are a state trooper with DOT patch......which is also
the only LEO my husband will show logs to <outside of bonafide DOT>
......call him what you want.
I know border patrol....they are "border patrol"...clearly marked...of
course they work out of scales or wherever they want....shoot, border
patrol is one of the highest authorities in the US....it's always
bizarre to see them in say....Tennessee...... :) You NEVER stated you
were border patrol.
You, my friend....I used to have alot of respect for.....but you have
turned into an asshole and if you find yourself having "clashes" with
truckdrivers you need to look in the mirror. Monkey see....monkey do....
We have NO PROBLEM with a state trooper wearing a patch. I stated it
FIRST POST to you....you convoluted the description of your job....don't
blame me for having comprehension problems. I clearly stated...."Are
you a state trooper with a DOT patch?"

Like truck drivers don't like some of the "names" people have attached to
them, those of us that are working for the State Police don't particulary
like being dubbed "DOT". If I am addressed by that name, I politely point
out that I don't work for the DOT, the patch on my shoulder says State
Patrol. And I know that comment will set some folks off, but I spent a good
chunk of my life at the Academy earning that patch, so I at least deserve
not to be called the "DOT" :)
As far as Federal Officers in Scales, they spend a lot of time at the scale
I supervise, along with time out on the road with my guys that work the
road. If a FMCSA Officer requests a log book, it must be handed over. The
Feds here wear a blue two piece "wash and wear" type of uniform and carry
identification for anyone that doesn't believe they are real. They inspect
equipment in white coveralls (who would crawl else would crawl under a truck
in white, they come out looking like a q-tip dipped in a tin of axle
grease).

I don't doubt his credibility. He has certainly demonstrated a good
understanding of relevant regulations and enforcement issues, and when he listed
some of the training received the courses were about the same length of time as
the courses I took. When dealing with cited references to regulations he had
the same interpretation of them that I did.

I guess......since his attitude bounces all over the place it kind of
negates out his facts sometimes. Some of his facts may pertain to HIM
and his situation but not nationwide. It becomes quite confusing for
me when he spouts off HIS RULES when it differs from state to state. I
was under the assumption he was "fed" so maybe that is where I'm
confused. All I'm interested in is his specific job title so I can get
a grasp from what level he is speaking from. It's not that difficult
yet he won't produce it. A "truck inspector" could be someone at the
Jiffy Lube qualified to perform annual DOT inspections.......

Well, from my experience, I have found regulations and laws vary from town
to town, city to city and province or state to province or state. And,
that's just for openers. So, it's not unusual to see a descrepancy between
what he says and what Dave relates (or anyone, for that matter).

Maybe he's employed by one of those secret organizations in your country,
that even he doesn't know who he works for, or what his title is <g>.

Amy, you are the POSTER GIRL for "bouncing" all over the place in terms of
attitude. I'm really beginning to think you are in real need of a constant
drip of midol to your veins.
> Some of his facts may pertain to HIM and his situation but not

That absolutely depends on what you are talking about. He has ALWAYS stuck
to offering information on regulations as set by the FMCSA, and in case you
didn't know it...they are adopted word for word by all 50 states, with only
subtle differences in weight tolerances.
If and when he has ever made statements on issues that are outside of the
regulations, it makes him no different than anyone else in here. We all
have certain knowledge of local and state differences in laws. We have all
at one time or another offered them in conversation.
It's not real hard to see what your big beef is. You do not hold a very
high opinion of law enforcement, and I've stated this to you more than
once.
> It becomes quite confusing for

The FMCSR are the same in ALL states. I've never seen him post a word that
conflicts with that simple fact.
> I was under the assumption he was "fed" so maybe that is where I'm

What difference does it make? He's either right or wrong, and his status
has not a thing to do with it. I've never seen him offer information that
was not 100% on the mark.
> It's not that difficult yet he won't produce it.
It's none of your business. It's his right to reveal as much or as little
as he wishes about what he does, his level of authority, and where he is.

If I present something that is valid for only my state, I SAY that!! And
you are right, the FMCSRs apply to every state that adopts them.....

Thank you. I know that most people like Amy, and at one time I did too, but
I laughed out loud when I read a post the other day that said she had
repeatedly tried to make peace with me. The fact is, I have went out of my
way to avoid her antics.
> If I present something that is valid for only my state, I SAY that!!
> And you are right, the FMCSRs apply to every state that adopts

I don't know of one that hasn't. I did leave out an important clarification
to that. All 50 adopted the FMCSR as it applies to those trucks engaged in
INTERSTATE operations between the states. Those trucks operating in
INTRASTATE operations fall under the state laws where they are located.
Where Amy is concerned, it is common knowledge that her hubby has always
had OTR jobs, so I don't get her gripe. The laws that he operates and has
always operated under, are and have been universal from state to state, so
I really fail to see where she is coming from.

Sorry you had to wait a few weeks for my reply.
Perception has nothing to do with it. I think if you will dig in the
archives, it will absolutely show that you tried to rile me up shortly
after my return to which I responded that I was not going to be your
punching bag. That will remain the case.
However, if you MUST make it a practice to insult someone each month in
conjunction with your monthly discomfort, then expect that it will not go
unnoticed. Do the world a favor and buy the economy sized bottle of midol,
in the handy 55 gallon drum, or perhaps infuse a central line to have a
constant drip going in. Your pattern is noted in the archives.
Your selective memory is noted as well.

You're right. It wasn't kind, and I don't have anything but contempt for
the bimbette, and I can take all kinds of crap from just about anyone, but
when she called me a liar about the deaths of my first wife and son several
months back, that was the point and time where she crossed that imaginary
line of battle. From that point, the gloves came off, and I really don't
care what anyone thinks about it.
I really do my best to avoid her, but what she wrote for about the fifth
time towards Truckinsp had to be addressed. So I did it.
I am a firm believer that if one is capable of hurling insults, then they
should be capable of being on the receiving end as well. She can take care
of herself.

C'mon....you're a woman. In all my years, I have observed that most all
women think their kids are perfect, and everyone else's kids are brats.
As I said yesterday, I don't have a thing against children. I do admit that
using such terminology is not polite, but then considering what Amy has
offered in my direction, I don't have any reason to BE polite to her.
When one hurls insults, it is acceptable to use any means necessary to
inflict something that will make that little curl appear at the corner of
their mouth when they hear it or read it.
Thus...a little tool of the trade that is proven to work most of the time
on a mother who decides to be a beotch.

And try to understand that I would never use such a term directly to a
child or in front of one.
Try to understand that the comment was directed solely at her, and no one
else.

It's a term that is used to describe children that are crawling. On
rugs/carpets, makes them rugrats. It's not a big deal.

Hell, Joyce, my oldest daughter is 32 and I still refer to her as my
rugrat. She doesn't seem to have a problem with it. Better than some
other terms I have heard such as "curtain climbers" or "yard apes".

My father in law called them "curtain climbing house apes", of course, with a
Texas accent. I always thought of it as a term of endearment. Anyway, I liked
it better than my mothers term for children, "twerps". I didn't like that one
when I was a kid. To each, their own.

Believe it or not, I like you, and I have read many of your posts, yes
you and
amy seem to be at odds many times,
Sometimes I can feel for Amy, her husband away many weeks, and the small
children 24/7. would drive anyone crazy
during the day, much less weeks.
I too had three children, and they were
not perfect,believe me.....their father
was employed in the building trade and
we lived on the job,,,,,but that didn't stop
the children from becoming spoiled brats
at times.....daddy was there to help
out.....where Amy's hubby isn't. Perhaps
she needs to vent sometimes. doesn't
everyone.......
I look back at those times, and today,
one son was murdered, another is a trucker, and my daughter works in
accounting, and volunteer in the EMS
in Virginia, she has worked herself up
to a captain....
I have read all the posts, and both of you
can get into a heated argument at times.
Each of you has your own belief's,and
do not hesitate to make them public.
Perhaps some of the things get personal
then comes the many posts back and forth, I don't know if both of you
consider
it to be hurtful to each other....
To be perfectly honest with you, a woman
lives a different lifestyle then men, they
are home, and have the children to care
for, and the house or apartment to keep up, and the bills to pay each
month, and
the cooking and cleaning, and laundry and
trash and the pets, the lawn, and shopping each week.
The men, if truckers are away 3 to 4 weeks, when they come home, they
have
dirty laundry, and the paperwork to get
done, and then try to fit in again with the
family life, It's hard for children to accept
this constant change, Dad is busy doing
the repair work, and all the other things
the wife couldn't do, then play with the
children, of course the children will then
try to get everything that mom said no to,
and then it causes problems.
After a few days or week, dad leaves again only to have mom, filling in
and
not quite making it. Only to have the
children feeling left out.....and then
acting up.. for attention.
If lucky enough to have family, or friends
that can include you and your children in
their lifestyle, that takes some of it away
from you,, if not you have them 24/7 for
many weeks, without hubby to help out.
it can become nerve wracking.
But that is the lifestyle of a trucker family.
at least I think in many cases that is how
it is.......
Sorry if the post is long, and mistakes are
included, I am having problems with my
eyesight and memory lately....getting old
isn't a happy thought.....been depending
on the spell checker lately, and it's rather
primative......
I'm sure I will see many responses to the
negative on this post...but I felt I had to
respond. joyce.
