3. I haven't gotten it yet.
I've been procrastinating the $500 purchase, I admit.

7. Thanks.
My temporary registration for the new car expired almost a week ago. The DMV here sucks on timeliness. I deserve the ticket, just pisses me off.

9. I was way under the limit.
I saw the cop behind me, so I was driving like an angel.

I like to think that it resembles the regular Mazda3 enough that cops won't pick me out, but yeah.

26. That was your mistake, then
Never drive so slowly that they can read the expiration date on the temps.

90+ should about do it.

11. More Enos Straight than Bubba.
The hand on the holster thing made me nervous. I was sure to stop at a very public place so I'd have witnesses to my demise if needed.

13. I wish I'd have done that back in '05
Some dickhead in an un-marked car nearly caused me and another driver to have an accident. I blew my horn and flipped the car off, car slams on brakes, turns and gets behind me with lights flashing, like a dumb-ass I pull off on an exit ramp, same dickhead gets out of car, hand on gun making all kinds of threats, etc.

I had to kiss ass and apologize (per his demands) which seemed like the smart and the right thing to do at the time as I don't think he'd of done all that with video on.

23. I scared him off when I told him
about my "good buddy" the lawyer in Seattle.

I don't think he knows where Seattle is.

27. Series. It's amazing how many dolts I've convinced that I'm in the right
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 05:27 PM by Midlodemocrat
when I bring out the 'good friend who is a lawyer in WA' card. People are so stupid.


:rofl:


Oh, and I also bring out the 'good friend who is an animal rescuer' card, 'good friend who is amazing at photoshop' card, 'good friend who is amazing at nothing' (LostinVA) card.
