Joe Wrote:Got a speeding ticket this weekend and that wrecked my weekend.
I hope the asshole that gave me the ticket gets run over on the side of the road.


I got a ticket a few weeks ago, coming home from bowling.
So yeah, I had a few beers.
Thankfully the guy did the normal "do you know why I pulled you over" thing and just gave me a ticket.
I was going 57 in a 45, he only gave me 5 over, but I'm still going to court over it.
I have no idea when my last ticket was, and I'd like to keep it that way.

someone probaly found Dericks tires, then thought they were donut tires for spares, then threw them in a duck pond.

Yeah, I'm going to go to court and see if I can get it cut down to something that doesn't cost me insurance money. I don't know if I was speeding or not, but it's likely I was.

My biggest motivation is mileage.
Even if I get an extra couple mpg, it'll probably pay for itself in a year.

I just totaled a car. Confusedad:
I don't need points screwing with my insurance too.

Jim lost the brand new screens for our crusher last year. $1800 worth of classifying screens landed somewhere between our shop and 15 miles away. Never did find them.

I also put up the gazeebo in the back yard on Saturday only to have high winds come by and flip it the fuck over mangling it all to hell. I did run down the steps in an attempt to save it, but it was too far gone by time I got down there. Once I realized another $300 blew away with the wind I decided to go ballistic on the rest of the shit in the back yard throwing bricks, chairs and whatever else I could find. I think I broke a lot of shit back there.... Probably cost me a few hundred more. I have a pretty bad temper and I've been really stressed out for months now...

handled shit LeNeve style.
Or do I handle my shit Joe style?

Friday right before quitting time, I overfilled the oil drain here at work, and it made a huge mess. That was the thing that finally got me to wig out, after a pretty good stretch of calmness.

I made a bigger mess out of a small mess. Then spent my Saturdau morning cleaning things, andstraightening bent metel.

I cannot get a ticket. Like I do everything possible to avoid getting pulled over. Because I'm going to jail no matter what. I think I get my liscence back in a month. 2 years of driving suspended. I keep a bottle of jack in my car to relieve the stress of it.

i keep a hudred dollar bill on me all the time for bail money if I do get pulled over though. Hopefully its still 100 to bond out on that charge.

Derick Wrote:Well that sucked. First race weekend of the year in the new Expert group. It pretty much turned out as expected. Got my ass kicked. Started 3 races, got lapped in 3 races, and finished last in 3 races. Couple that with fighting a new suit, I was pretty much wore out after the first race. And to top things off a brand new set of tires is hanging out on the road somewhere between there and here, since they decided not to stay attached to the trailer.

What a swoot weekend. You should have watched the Kentucky Derby instead.
Just because someone can call me Mom now doesn't mean I am gonna be Betty Freakin Cocker and bake any pies.

I've spilled oil in my garage before causing me to wig out. That shit is so hard to cleanup when you don't have the speedy dry shit. You wind up with a garbage can full of rags for a little bit of oil.

Seriously, how many gazebos do you have to have destroyed before you learn?

I think I'm on 5. All I want do is be able to sit out back, eat dinner and occasionally entertain people.

Jim will look at the ticket to see if they used the radar. The last couple times, the cop didn't so he was at least able to get the points thrown out.
