Actually, I stand corrected.

I forgot that even though there are a total of (4) outlets on the
generator, each phase can only do a total of 20 amps.  Since I am plugging
a total of (4) - (2) on each into 15amp breaker feeds, the total capacity
that I can pull is 40amps.  

It has (2) phases of 20amps - one is "shared" with a 220 outlet. 
You can use the 220 or 110, but not both.

So I was sharing 40amps.  If it goes over that on either side, it will trip
a breaker.  Typically on the generator side in this case.
