Hey stupid. You know what is meant by cell phone driver, so STFU.

Sorry dood, but it's true. She did murder her bf. At the very least
she should have been convicted of vehicular manslaughter but she bought
her way out and never was charged with anything. If you weren't such a
criminal coddler you'd demand she be put in prison right now.

Electrostatic Management? You're babbling incoherently again, Judy. I
think Scott is right: You meant to write FOAD and EMS.


Well, it makes it kind of hard to figure out a make-believe acronym
(like the two you used above) when you have *never* given any context
whatsoever by which anyone could possibly hope to figure it out. Not
everyone lives in the same imaginary world you do...

Your Mileage May Vary. That one is a _well_ established acronym.
