Unfortunately, it goes right over the head of those doing the lying.
Especially that fake xtian, shit fuck Huckabee suckabee sanderbee



jeeze, did I just type that?
Why, yes. I did.

Ya see after 20-25 years I finally got a speeding ticket- 73 in a 55 zone! Ignoring my radar detector.. In a RED car...SO, I have to go slowly for 18 month. Actually, it's good for me to practice patience.

But my impatience with slow drivers in the left lane and people driving through red lights seems to be coming out here.

I got one for doing 90 in a 70 zone and I told the HP I got distracted because I was brushing my hair. First and last ticket, did a prayer for judgment. Good news is I got to mark going ninety in a Trans Am off my bucket list. Now I barely go anywhere and drive like granny, because, fuel economy. You only live once and having stories to tell is what makes you interesting.

Vroom vroom.

My radar detector has saved my thousands of dollars..

My highest speed?

Humm

in 1977---On a motorcycle--- BMW R-75 on I-90 going west across SD - I hit an indicated 115 MPH! And my buddy, on an R-100 went by my pike I wasn't moving.

The fact that she set it primarily in a boarding school was genius. She absolutely knows what is going on now.
