Just a very, very quick update on my absence from DU.

Myself and my other driver have been very, very, very busy, despite some of the news, the goods are there for pick up and delivery, the problem is that many of our clients are trying to downgrade our mileage pay and we are not, for the most part, going along with this.
Will update as needed, but keep on taking it to the Been A Dick Donald Fascist Regime.
Love all of you, those that disagree with my posts, and those that agree, especially Aloe Vera, whom I've come to respect, despite our differences regarding Israel/HAMAs War.

3. I wondered why you didn't post much lately. I understand.

One of my husband's friends is a trucker. The trucker was bitchin' about rolling in Florida.
"It used to take me a certain time to drop my loads...Now, with the massive population (And pokey-ass drivers)"
It's eating up my wallet" Anyway, Take care!

5. Keep Listnin' to those blues.

6. Love the Blues,

I like many types of music, but I've gotta say that I have a special place in my heart for the Blues.

BB King, T-Bone Walker, Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Etta James, John Mayall, and Sister Rosetta Tharpe.
Of course, BB King is the father of Blues, at least in my mind.

15. I'm glad you got a lot of work. Now comes the reminder. It's called "tithing." And Jesus likes it.

It's where you're supose'ta give away 10% of your earning. In this case, I propose the tithe goes to D.U., or Act Blue or your favorite Democratic candidate.

Anyway, in any case, drive safely.

25. Since I don't recall a 10% donation requirement from the New Testament, I did a quick google...

Altho AI agrees with me (kinda creepy) there are a whole slew of “Christian” sites with names like “tithing.com” and on and on.

In answer to queries from worried congregants, they go so far as to say that if you can’t afford to fork over 10% of your cash, you still must. If it’s a case of not being able to pay your bills, you just have to try harder.

In Biblical days, I believe offerings were largely in the form of agricultural produce from farms and herds.

But Jesus, IIRC, taught mercy. And you have no idea of the cash economic circumstances of your brother or neighbor.

Just sayin’
