Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Can someone help me parse some government-ese?

OK, I need a State of IL photo ID (so I can fly) because I still don't have my driver's license back. I'm trying to figure out what identification I need. So, there's two statements that confuse me.

1) First Time Illinois Drivers License/Identification Card Applicant: An applicant applying for a Drivers License or Identification Card for the first time in the state of Illinois, must present one document from each of Group A, B, C, and D.

2 ) Duplicate/Corrected Drivers License/Identification Card: An applicant applying for either a duplicate or corrected Drivers License or Identification Card must present one form of identification from Group A, and at least one form from eitherGroups B, C, or D.

eta: and there's also

3) Illinois Drivers License/Identification Card Renewal Applicants: Applicants renewing their current Illinois Drivers License or Identification Card need only present their current valid license or ID card. If they do not have their current driver’s license or ID card, then they must present one form of identification from Group A and at least one form from eitherGroups B, C, or D.

I have been issued a drivers license by the state of IL before, but not an ID card.

So, when it says, "An applicant applying for a Drivers License or Identification Card for the first time," does that mean that since I've gotten a drivers license, it's not the "first time", so 2) applies? There are two different ways to interpret this stuff....

The problem is that I can't find my Social Security card at the moment....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That's what I was thinking. Also, the logic-phrasing I was looking for....

I'm not entirely sure how to parse "either Groups B, C, or D," because either only refers to two things. It's not very close to English, but it looks to me like you could get by with a credit card (Group A) and residency information (Group D).

Anyway, that's cool. My bosses would be pissed at me if I couldn't fly, after they've already bought me the ticket and registered me for a class.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Tom, do you have the citation you were given when your Drivers License was taken away? They might accept that as ID (at least it shows that you had a Drivers License).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am so disappointed in you people. There were simultaneous name conversation and bitching by Allyson, and no one said "I know this world is killing you"????

Yes, but that's in the list of "Unacceptable Identification." Suppose it wouldn't hurt to bring it, though.

I don't think there were any dolls with my name. Apparently, there was a girl on the cover of one of V.C. Andrews's books who looked like me, though, and EVERYONE told me so. And I HATE V.C. Andrews. She creeps me out.
