OT Somehow this does NOT remind me of...
....the song "Everyone's A Winner" by Hot Chocolate.

That's why insurance rates are so high. Charles of Kankakee |

I went to court over it and the judge dude told me I had to surrender my driver's license for 30 days (and in those 30 days I ripped the exhaust system off of my car and replaced it with headers, glasspacks, and dual-exhaust to make it go faster) and I asked the judge how I was supposed to get home. He said "Well, you can't drive since you don't have a license to drive now." I walked out into the parking lot, got in my car, turned the key, and WOW! The car started right up. I drove home. I guess the judge didn't know what he was talking about. I drove home without a license just fine. I was doing construction work with my dad at the time and drove his pickup-truck back-and-forth between the job site and Lowes dozens of times, too. Man. I thought judges were supposed to be smart. :-) --- "Knowledge speaks; wisdom listens." - Jimi Hendrix "Stupid people are funny." - me |
