The status is NOT quo.

Oh dear. This second page has been a giant list of minutia about lighting and brake law, such as:

(a) This bill amends the minimum height requirement for red fog tail lamps to not lower than 12 inches (previously 15 inches) or higher than 60 inches.

ETA: Also, did you know that "the main purpose of the tires is to control the vehicle in turning and stopping situations"? t headdesk

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

...and I spoke too soon. Apparently this second page of facts should have taken me FORTY minutes to read. I have 26 minutes left to wait now.

“Not dead yet!”

Oh lord, Pix, that is the worst. I had to do a similar test for a ticket here in Florida a couple of years ago and it was my ida of hell.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Pix, with the 18 extra minutes per page, you can calculate the savings from car insurance, then plot where that money can be used. Pay down loans, extra large payment on the car. New shoes. Honeymoon!! Oo this is getting fun. Don't forget, those insurance savings are for 3 years! Lots of scheming you can do.

Oh Omnis, have I told you lately that you are my sunshine, my only sunshine?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

ETA: Also, did you know that "the main purpose of the tires is to control the vehicle in turning and stopping situations"?

Wait, WHAT?? This test is way over my head.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Since moving to Dallas, my rent and utilities are the same company, and they charge to do electronic transfers, so eff that, I write a check.

Mine did that for a while. And I paid by check. Now they are checkless and I pay online for free. And I do that. Crazily, they wanted us to pay online when they charged and were confounded as to why people weren't. Dumbass, you wanted to charge me $20 a month, I don't think so.

ETA: Also, did you know that "the main purpose of the tires is to control the vehicle in turning and stopping situations"?

Do *they* know that is not entirely accurate? Hell, it's only barely accurate. Dude, your tires are the only thing on your car that has contact with the road. They are slightly more important than just in stopping and turning unless you plan to be driving a damned unguided missile. And I don't know how you'd get that moving without tires, either.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The tires are the thing on your car that make contact with the road.

The car is the thing on the road that brings you back to your abode.

Bummed is what you are when you come back to your car and it's been towed.
