Title: Porcupine Taxi in Manchester
Post by: ancapagency on December 12, 2008, 08:25 AM NHFT
Hey Porcupines in the Manchester/Bedford area--

I spend about 10 hours a day driving a box truck aimlessly around Manchester and Bedford on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, from usually around 10 am until 8 pm.

So, I thought I'd offer my services as an informal taxi service in the area during that time.  If you need a ride, or have stuff you need to transport, or would like to spend part of the day touring the Manchester/Bedford area, give me a call.

Spend some time driving around, listening to history and pro-liberty podcasts, and getting to know the area.

Run errands, move furniture, and so forth.

Donations accepted, but not required.

call me at: 603.340.6654 to arrange a ride during the above times, or 603.463.0069 (or email ancapagency@yahoo.com) during other times.

Look out for the taxi regulators... one of the "licensed" companies might get wind of you and snitch to the cops:

Yes--that's why I'm restricting it to Porcupines.  It's covert, as opposed to overt, civil disobedience.

Well, except that you're advertising it and your phone number publicly on a forum where cops are know to monitor and porcupines could easily be provocateurs.  Just a word of caution.

Put this info on the tea party forum instead if you just want cool people to know about it.

Yes, because I don't do the private only forums, but AA thread sounded like the perfect candidate for such a forum.

OK, I'll bite: WHY do you spend 10 hours a day driving a box truck aimlessly?  Doesn't that cost you a lot in gas?

Does the box truck belong to you, or does it belong to the people paying you to drive it?

If it was I'm thinking of, it is a pretty common thing in major cities.  People drive big trucks with ads around heavy traffic areas when there is heavy traffic for money.  The people tend not to own the truck just as a UPS driver doesn't tend to own a UPS truck.  I hate these trucks as they slow traffic flow and make it harder to see in other lanes.
