You have no idea whether I am sinless or not. I, however, know you are not. I remember when you abused me, it was a long time ago and I can't quite remember when or exactly where it was but I am sure it was you and you tried to sodomize me. You should be ashamed.

I don't buy this I lived in the Washington DC area and we had a very famous local case Elisabeth Morgan accused her husband Eric A. Foretich of abusing their daughter A lot was written about this case Elisabeth Morgan refused to let her former husband see their daughter due to the allegations She sat in jail for 2 years for contempt. https://www.conservapedia.com/Elizabeth_Morgan_case By the way the little girl is an adult now and wont have anything to do with her father Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

I am not saying no abuse happens and that some of the time a women is not believed when she should be. What I am saying we have a well established court system where you are innocent until proven guilty and all accused should have that protection and not have their lives ruined by an unproved allegation.

A man gets mad he can strike out, a wife is weaker and will have to go into the kitchen to get a knife. The man will do two to three years but wife, having had time for reflection, will do fifteen years. Women may always fear attack but its not really all that common. Men do get trashed in court though. Many abuse allegations are made for leverage in a divorce setting; the truth is often unknown. Kids can be brainwashed into believing its the truth. One woman tried to tell her father she was sorry when he got out of prison, but he told her the time for honesty was nine years ago now is the time for her to get lost. |

The only drivers making any money drive their cars into the ground 12-14 hours a day, 6 days a week. For the rest it's a part time supplemental job. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

You have to concentrate on doing it at only surge times. Maybe try to hustle a fair if you live near the airport and commute to town. Any kind of driving gig is mostly like that. Either you get bored sitting or don't have time to breathe. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength |

| Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 148 Posts: 25978 | You only have to examine two facts to set yourself straight on the 'blue wave' fallacy. Michael Moore's movie opened 2 weeks ago in 1700 theaters and has taken in a paltry $5mil so far. It's a giant bomb. And 92,000 people asked for tickets to a Trump rally this week. It doesn't take a brainiac to figure out what's going on. The same as in 2016, but the media is ignoring it. The Lib reviewers at Rotten Tomatoes had the Moore bomb at 80%. They opened it in an unheard of 1700 theaters, huge for a docu. They thought the Libs would go wild for this, they're so fired up. It wasn't even a fart in the wind, that's how much they cared.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

If you chase surge what you will find is by the time you reach that area more often than not the surge is much lower or gone because every other driver has the same idea. If you happen to find yourself in the middle of a surge area then great, you lucked in. Just drive at known high demand times like weekends. You won’t be guaranteed surge pricing but you will have enough demand that you will never be waiting more than a few minutes for your next job. The rest of the week would be a waste of time. |
